How the desk runs

One platform, from the rate to the self-bill.

Find who is coming free
Plants run to a production cycle, so the operatives who ran the last campaign are the first list to work. The record tells you who is finishing and when, before the vacancy is even open.
Rate, margin and status
The charge rate, the pay rate and the margin sit on the placement, with the contract status and IR35 position recorded alongside them.
Brief that matches the work
Contracts here run on machine operators, maintenance technicians and line leaders. What the plant is judging is whether the operator is ticketed for the machine before the shift, so that is what the submission has to evidence.
Extensions on the same line
An extension runs against the existing placement rather than a new one, so the rate history, the end dates and the whole assignment stay together.
Self-bill and contractor pay
PAYE with AWR and holiday pay, with umbrella for contract technicians, produced from approved hours, with self-bill documents drawn from the same figures and the plant invoiced in the same run.
Margin against forecast
Dashman shows fill-rate by plant, cover by line and where the week is short.

Questions

Contract Manufacturing recruitment software questions.

How is IR35 and contract status handled?

The contract status and IR35 position sit on the placement alongside the rate and the margin, so the position is evidenced on the record when it is asked about. PAYE with AWR and holiday pay, with umbrella for contract technicians all run from the same placement.

Does it handle umbrella and limited contractors?

Both run from the hours approved on the timesheet, with self-bill documents produced from the same approved figures.

How are extensions tracked?

An extension runs against the existing placement rather than a new record, so the rate history, the end dates and the whole assignment stay in one line.

Can we see margin by placement?

Dashman shows contract margin against forecast by placement, consultant and client, without a spreadsheet in the middle.

What checks does a manufacturing placement need?

Machine tickets, inductions and PPE sign-off are held against the worker with expiry alerts, and confirmed before a booking is committed. The desk holds machine and plant tickets with expiry alerts, line and plant inductions recorded against the placement, PPE sign-off before the worker goes on site, right-to-work documents with expiry alerts.
