Summary

Managing people effectively is the foundation of any successful business. For a mid-sized professional services company in Brunei, this meant ensuring employee records, attendance, leave tracking, and performance management were accurate and accessible. But as the team grew, managing these critical HR functions through spreadsheets became increasingly challenging.

 

To support their scaling workforce and streamline internal processes, the company turned to Zoho People, implemented by TekyDoct, to bring structure, automation, and transparency to HR operations.

Growth Challenges

As the company expanded, its HR operations were being strained by

Manual Employee Record Keeping

All employee data was stored and updated manually in Excel sheets, increasing the risk of data inconsistencies and errors

Time-Consuming Attendance Tracking

Attendance and check-in data were managed via email and spreadsheets, making it difficult to enforce policies or track trends

Lack of Centralized Leave & Holiday Management

Employees submitted leave requests via email, often leading to approval delays and miscommunication

No Unified View of HR Metrics

Without real-time data, management had limited visibility into headcount, absenteeism, or productivity patterns

Onboarding & Compliance Gaps

The absence of a formal system made it difficult to track onboarding tasks, policy acknowledgments, or document expiry.
