How GlobalStaff Eliminated All Client Invoice Disputes

A BPO firm with 142 staff across 8 countries had one-third of invoices disputed by clients. Verified Timedox attendance reports ended the disputes permanently.

The Company

GlobalStaff Solutions is a BPO and staffing firm headquartered in Mumbai with delivery centers in 8 countries. They provide support, data entry, and customer operations teams to mid-market clients across North America and Europe.

COO Rajesh Patel manages 142 outsourced staff deployed across 18 client contracts. His biggest operational challenge: proving to clients that staff worked the hours they were billed for.

The problem

"Every third invoice turned into a negotiation. Clients didn't trust our records."

GlobalStaff's attendance tracking was a patchwork of Excel sheets, email check-ins, and client-site badge logs. With staff across 8+ time zones, centralized tracking was impossible.

When clients received invoices, they had no way to verify the hours independently. Disputes were constant, payments were delayed, and two clients had already reduced their contracts.

"We were doing the work. Our teams were online and productive. But without verified records, every invoice was just our word against their skepticism."

Why Timedox

Why they chose Timedox

Rajesh needed automated, verified attendance across all time zones. Timedox's Desktop App with Automatic In-Out provided presence-based verification without adding any work for staff.

"When our agents sit down at their workstations, they're clocked in. When they leave, they're clocked out. The timestamps are verified, the time zones are accurate, and the reports are exportable. That's all my clients needed to see."

Multi-timezone support meant every team member's hours were recorded in their local time, then normalized for client reporting. No more manual timezone math.
