AutoTime

AutoTime is a workforce management software platform built for the aerospace and defense industry, where labor tracking accuracy and DCAA compliance are non-negotiable. The platform delivers automated timekeeping, precise labor allocation, and compliance reporting tools that allow prime contractors and defense manufacturers to meet government requirements without sacrificing operational efficiency.

Government contracting environments operate under unique labor accounting rules. DCAA audits require accurate, contemporaneous time records tied to specific contracts and cost categories. AutoTime was built with that audit environment in mind, reducing the administrative burden on employees while giving finance and compliance teams the documentation they need to pass review.

AutoTime came to Solen through a corporate carve-out in 2025. The business had been part of a larger organization that had stopped reinvesting in the platform. Solen recognized the strength of the product and the loyalty of its customer base, and committed to rebuilding the platform and providing the sustained investment the business deserved.

AutoTime operates in an industry with significant customer concentration, which is common in defense contracting given the limited number of major prime contractors. Solen understood that dynamic thoroughly before investing, and it reflects the kind of deep-relationship, high-retention customer base that characterizes the businesses Solen seeks out.
