RigLog HR: what's built, and which look you'd like

Prepared for Melitta and Lisa, 13 November 2026. Everything shown uses made-up people and sample sites, not GeoDrill data. Nothing here is live yet.

What we need from you: pick the look you'd like the HR screens to use (A, B, C or D, or a mix), and tell us anything you'd change. The features stay the same whichever you pick; this is about how it looks and feels. Questions are at the bottom.

Part 1: What's built so far

Four HR areas are built and in testing. They're shown here in RigLog's current, plain styling; the look you choose in Part 2 is what they'll be restyled to. The org chart is next on the list.

1. Employee records

Everyone's record in one place: role, reporting lines (primary and secondary manager), position history, photo, documents with e-signing, and private file notes.

2. Hiring to leaving

Applications and vacancies, hire, onboarding checklists, policy acknowledgements, visa checks, probation, and offboarding (including equipment return).

3. People dashboard, reports and leave

People dashboard, a report builder with export, the WGEA report, and a team leave calendar that shows clashes.

4. Performance and development

Annual reviews signed by both sides, goals, 1:1s, a talent grid, pulse surveys and course assignments, with a phone view for crews.

Part 2: Four possible looks

Each look shows the HR home page, a person's profile, and the crew phone view. Each one is also a clickable file you can open in a browser and click around (sent alongside this page).

AWarm, people-first

Friendly and human. Soft paper background, a serif headline font, photos and celebrations (anniversaries, new starters) up front.
Good for: Best if HR and managers live in it every day.Watch-out: Softer, less crisp for an exec audience.

BCalm enterprise

Precise and quiet. White and grey, one brand blue, small dense type, side panels instead of new pages.
Good for: Best for power users and clean exec printouts.Watch-out: Dense; casual office users may find it dry.

CField operations

Strong and glanceable. Navy and teal (like Melitta's own dashboard), bold numbers, red/amber/green everywhere, crew compliance rings.
Good for: Best if HR sits alongside rosters, tickets and safety.Watch-out: Louder and busier; the HR screens would look different from the rest of RigLog.

DRigLog house style

Uses the same look as the rest of RigLog (maintenance, purchasing, pre-starts), with the best layout ideas from A, B and C. Has a dark mode.
Good for: Best for one consistent system across the business.Watch-out: Doesn't yet show the workforce snapshot page; that would follow the same style.

Part 3: Your input

  1. Which look? A, B, C or D. If you like parts of more than one, say which bits (for example "D, but with C's red/amber/green ticket colours").
  2. The home page. Each look puts "what needs you" (leave to approve, expiring tickets, signatures to collect) at the top. Is that the right first thing to see? Anything missing?
  3. The person profile. Is the right information at the top (role, primary and secondary manager, status, ticket expiries)?
  4. Crews on phones. Is the phone view simple enough for a driller's assistant on site?
  5. Workforce snapshot. A, B and C include a version of your People Dashboard (headcount, turnover, tenure and so on). Does it cover what you'd take to an exec meeting or ISO audit?

A quick reply with a letter and a few comments is plenty.
