Case Study Purrmann SpeditionDigital Time Tracking for Logistics

Logo Purrmann Spedition

The logistics provider Purrmann draws on more than 90 years of corporate history. Based in central Germany, the medium-sized family business employs over 70 professionals. Modern digital infrastructure drives the entire operation, streamlining corporate communications, logistics management, administration and a fleet equipped with cutting-edge vehicle technology. For digital time tracking, Purrmann relies on the innovaphone Working App.

The Challenge: Mobile and Flexible Time Tracking

As a third-generation family business and logistics provider, Purrmann faces unique workforce management requirements. Employees operate flexibly across multiple warehouse and logistics locations, creating a strong need for a portable, mobile-first time tracking solution. Accurate overtime documentation is also essential. Ensuring compliance with statutory rest periods and maintaining transparent audit trails are equally critical priorities.

 

The Solution: Working Meets the Specific Requirements of the Logistics Industry

Since Purrmann already utilized innovaphone myApps as its corporate communications platform, expanding the ecosystem to include the digital time tracking solution, Working, was a logical next step. Prior to implementation, decision-makers at Purrmann used a detailed project specification sheet to verify that the Working App met all essential operational requirements:

 

Legal Security and Compliance

• Verifying compliance with rest periods

• Tracking exact minutes without rounding

• Seamless documentation of overtime

• Vacation and absences

 

Convenience and Overview

• Comment feature for special entries

• Live overview of clocked-in employees

• Transparent vacation management

 

Flexibility

• Mobile time tracking via smartphones, tablets and other devices

 

Dustin Purrmann, Managing Director of Purrmann, explains: “Finding a solution that integrates seamlessly into our existing myApps environment while matching our specific industry requirements was critical for us. Mobile tracking via smartphones directly from vehicles or warehouse locations, seamless overtime documentation and automatic rest period checks give us the confidence that all working hours and restperiods are recorded transparently. This delivers a simple, time-saving solution for our entire workforce.”

 

Outlook: Dedicated Terminals for Enhanced Convenience

The logistics provider Purrmann is currently evaluating the installation of a fixed terminal at its headquarters in Steinheim. Adding this hardware will further simplify operations for the workforce, particularly for employees who primarily begin and end their shifts at the main location..
