Roster Manager is much more than a staff rostering solution capable of producing a duty roster at the touch of a button. It is a complete management information system and manpower scheduling tool which provides user-friendly access to all of the information you need to plan and run your business.  The system includes facilities for customer relationship, personnel and contract management, key holding and alarm response, automatic roster creation, generation of payroll and billing output and a stock control module to cost and keep track of equipment or uniform issued to personnel and/or sites.
