Non-Job Posting - Question About Systems

Hello Keith.
I am also a member of WNO and appreciate your e-mail leads, although they are on
the IT side and I am on the finance and accounting side.
Do you know of a good, automated time-tracking software system which advertising
agencies may utilize to better track their creative time, as opposed to a system
where the creative folks have to manually stop their creative processes and
enter in their time manually into the system?  I understand that Saatchi may be
using such a system.  Do you have anyone there that you might be able to reach
out to?
Thanks for your kind assistance.
Best regards,
Michael Herz
