Software and automation in Rawson
Rawson combines provincial administrative capital and fishing activity. Those are two very different logics: one with regular hours and formal requirements, the other seasonal, intense, and with headcount that shifts with the catch.
Two economies in the same city
- Administration and services. Regular hours, stable headcount and a need for formal working time records.
- Port and fishing. Seasonal activity, with peaks that require adding people fast and tracking hours in conditions where nobody is sitting at a computer.
- Local scale retail and hospitality, with the usual scheduling and cash control needs.
For port activity, what stands out most is phone based clock-in: it lets the working day be recorded where the work happens, without going through an office.
What is worth automating first
When headcount shifts with the season, staff control always comes first: it is where manual work grows fastest and where errors cost money directly.
Once that is in order, financial order is the natural next step, especially if there is more than one revenue source.
