HQ Planning: Demand driven Workforce Scheduling
HQ Planning is a demand driven scheduling module that helps you align your labour resources to the demand of your production and your customer requirements. HQ Planning is suitable for shift based organizations that have predictable workload variations on daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Types of organizations that benefit mostly are manufacturing, logistics, services, etc. The automatic scheduling engine automatically generates the most cost effective schedule for the organisation based on production requirements, employees' skills, shifts and planned absences while ensuring compliance with labour and company policies. Managers can then precisely adjust the suggested schedule and re-assign employees to deal with specific requirements or circumstances.
