Methods, systems, and computer program products for managing productivity
First Claim
1. A method for managing productivity, comprising:
- establishing a planned execution time for performing a task, the task being assigned a unique identifier;
comparing the planned execution time with an actual execution time for performing the task, the actual execution time extracted from a task dispatch system via the unique identifier;
calculating an efficiency rating based upon the comparing; and
associating the efficiency rating with at least one of;
an individual performing the task;
a supervisor of an individual performing the task;
a group of individuals associated with an individual performing the task; and
an organization associated with an individual performing the task.

Abstract
Exemplary embodiments relate to methods, systems, and computer program products for managing productivity. Methods include establishing a planned execution time for performing a task. The task is assigned a unique identifier. Methods further include comparing the planned execution time with an actual execution time for performing the task and, based upon the results, calculating an efficiency rating. The actual execution time is extracted from a task dispatch system via the unique identifier. Methods also include associating the efficiency rating with one or more of: an individual performing the task, a supervisor of the individual performing the task, a group of individuals with which the individual performing the task is associated, and an organization associated with the individual performing the task.
