Guessing how many and which employees you need when planning and building Schedules is destined to either blow out your labour budgets or leave you understaffed and unproductive. Even worse, it may burden your organisation with serious compliance risk. TimeTEQ’s planning and scheduling solutions resolve these issues by providing you with easy to use tools for optimising the deployment of your workforce.
Effective allocation of and adherence to budgets is critical but challenging, particularly for businesses with a wide-spread workforce. The key to effective labour budgeting is a solution that allows for the easy setup, input & management of budgeting data while providing visibility, control and analysis at the scheduling and reporting levels.
Forecast/Plan
Whether you’re scheduling weekly, fortnightly or monthly this step in the process ensures you create an accurate forecast of role based resource requirements to meet your anticipated workload. TimeTEQ offers simple pre-defined template libraries, import from previous schedule or our optional Workload Demand Planner to assist in creating the perfect resourcing plan to meet demand and budget.
Build
The build process is quick and simple bringing your budget and plan together with employee availability, leave, and skills as well as rules and alerts in one easy-to-use screen. The end goal is an optimised schedule that meets service or production level requirements in a cost-effective manner whilst ensuring business objectives and employee requirements are met.
Notify
Once the schedule build process is completed, advising employees of upcoming shifts is essential – an easy task with TimeTEQ.
Employees can be advised of their scheduled shifts via a variety of methods including SMS, e-mail and the employee self service kiosk. Of course we also still offer the good old fashioned printed wall schedule. |
