3D visualization is a creative job, and seemingly similar projects
may differ in the time needed for completion. Artists have good
days and bad days, doing more than expected one day and running
into problems the next. This volatility makes assessing project
budgets and artists' effectiveness challenging. That's why the
founder of 7CGI looked for a way to track work duration and charge
clients the right price.
Initially, the artists tracked the start and end times of every
billable task in Excel. As you can imagine, what was supposed to
bring a solution turned into a new burden. The billable times were
either missing or incorrectly filled out. The artists admitted
that when they are in the flow, they don’t want interruptions —
timesheets were seen as a nuisance.
Missing or incorrectly registered work hours led to a series of
issues for the company. First, the invoices loosely reflected the
actual effort the artists had put into work. Second, the company
lacked reliable data on the artists' efficiency. This challenge
threatened to cripple the company's development, so Abdullah
looked for help. That was the moment when TimeCamp entered the
stage.
