History

A concierge, this term being derived from the French language, is an employee who lives on the premises of apartment buildings and serves as a general caretaker; while the phenomenon and the term are most common in France, they can be seen elsewhere (they are notably common in the French-influenced neighborhood of Heliopolis in Cairo, Egypt). In medieval times, the concierge was an officer of the King who was charged with executing justice, with the help of his bailiffs. However, such settings are now extremely rare, in 19th century and early 20th century apartment buildings & commercial start using "Front Desk" services instead "Concierge" as they are less costly, and more secure as the security staff is trained for front desk services.

Wired Time is breaking ground in mobile workforce automation by introducing a solution that is everything the competition is not - simple. From the handheld WT500 that collects worker, time and task data from the field, to the WT Express software that provides real-time analytics and detailed reports, everything has been designed for ease of use and quick deployment.

Wired Time enables the instant collection of worker time and task details that are unattainable with GPS alone. The WT500, for example, is GPS ready, and provides interactive mapping right out of the box, but goes far beyond the capabilities of GPS by giving details about which specific tasks were performed onsite (inspections, repairs, maintenance etc.) who was present (in Crew Mode) and how long each task took.
