TTA Works Announces the Release of CrewRater and CrewCenter 1.0

TTA Works (formerly The Training Authorites), an award winning leader in computer based training for the mining and construction industries, has announced the release of CrewRater and CrewCenter 1.0. These are two separate but integrated applications that work seamlessly to provide heavy equipment operations the tools and metrics to assign, rate, track, and report on what is actually happening at the site level.

CrewRater supports TTA's HEO (Heavy Equipment Operator) rating system and is a mobile product designed to improve the operational efficiencies of mines, quarries, and heavy construction operations by implementing a rigorous approach to tracking and assessing skills and behaviors. CrewCenter is a web based software solution developed to organize and manage all the data collected by the CrewRater system, and present it in a visual and meaningful format to supervisors and upper-management. Data can be easily evaluated on a daily basis against predetermined metrics to determine the effectiveness of an operation. CrewCenter also has document and information management capabilities and a direct link to TTA's award winning Computer Based Training (CBT) courses and Learning Management System (LMS).

"Here at TTA we believe that a company's greatest asset is their workforce. With that in mind, we've built, and are extremely excited about releasing, CrewRater and CrewCenter. These innovative products will allow any operation, big or small, to actively and decisively manage their people," stated Scott Sturm, President of TTA Works. He goes on to say, "We've taken great effort to build user friendly applications that fit into the daily workflow of supervisors, trainers and managers, and CrewRater and CrewCenter are no exception."

The sync capability between CrewRater and CrewCenter is an innovative process that allows operating data to be collected on site, with or without connection to a network, and then uploaded when a connection is available. That means that TTA products work anywhere, anytime. They are scalable and flexible enough to meet the demands of any operation.
