cronwrap - Expanded version of 'cron'

'cronwrap' is a utility that offers more control over the execution of a cron job than the standard cron daemon allows. It can ensure and report that the job completes within a specified time period. It can email and/or log any output produced from the job. It reports on the exit status of the job.
