This month, Tracktive is our member spotlight. A new member to CAMM we wanted to get a chance to get to know them.
|
I had the pleasure of asking Burke D'Souza some questions:
|
What are your goals for 2023?
|
Help our current and prospective customers to do more with their time by delivering secure real-time project visibility and maximizing their SR&ED claims with Tracktive.
|
What are you most proud of from 2022?Launching our Tracktive iOS mobile app for anywhere, anytime use and continuing to make work simpler and faster.
|
3 things to know about your company.
|
1. Based in Windsor, ON – Canada’s automotive heart.
|
2. As a hybrid-work company, we design our products with a people-first and hybrid workplace mindset so that you can do more with your time.
|
3. Tracktive evolved from an in-house Project Management tool created for our sister company (IT Management firm – Monsoon Networks), to the standalone work
|
management solution for knowledge workers it is today.
|
Brief history of your company.
|
Founded in 2001, Tracktive started as an in-house, work management app that evolved into a toolset for automotive Tier1s and 2s to submit engineering details to OEMS for 9/11 related reimbursements for terminated programs. Tractive today can be found in a multitude of environments, from manufacturing to consulting to biotech to healthcare... Essentially any workplace that manages projects and knowledge, and needs visibility into them, delivered it in real-time.
|
We joined CAMM to engage with the membership and introduce them to Tracktive, as we feel our work-project management and native SR&ED tracking software solution fills a gap in the market.
|
Something people may not know about the industry you work in?
|
Software is fast moving, with new additions and updates required constantly – which in that sense is not much different than manufacturing!
|
Thank you Tracktive for being a part of the CAMM Community!
