Warehouse and distribution centre scheduling

Scheduling for Distribution Centres.

Staff every shift to match the volume coming through the door, in peak weeks and quiet ones.

Trusted by ops teams managing thousands of shifts every week

For Distribution Centre Operations

Plan labour from your volumes. Forecast demand from orders, units or parcels and turn it into the headcount each shift needs, by area and by time of day, so inbound, picking, packing and dispatch are all covered.
Prepare for peak, without overspending. Plan seasonal peaks weeks ahead. See how many permanent, temporary and agency workers you need, and when, instead of paying for cover you don't use.
Put the right skills in the right area. Schedule by skill and certification, such as forklift or reach truck, so the right people are on the right equipment and every area runs at pace.

For HR & People teams

Run 24/7 shift patterns fairly. Build days, nights and rotating patterns that share unsociable hours fairly, with rotas that check rest periods and working time rules before they're published.
Fill gaps and absence quickly. When volumes jump or someone's off, see who's available and qualified and offer them the shift. Colleagues can also swap or pick up shifts in the app.
Keep workers engaged and retained. Give your teams their shifts in advance, with a say in availability and preferences. Reliable schedules help to keep people, in an industry where turnover is high.

For Finance

Control labour spend. Set budgets in hours or currency and see the cost of every schedule update as it’s built, so variances are spotted long before they hit the P&L.
Link labour to sales. See forecast and actual sales side by side with key metrics such as productivity and labour as a percentage of sales, so every hour is working hard for the business.
Pay people correctly. Pay codes are applied automatically in line with labour laws and company policies, and approved timesheets go straight to payroll, which means fewer errors and fewer corrections.

For IT & Systems

Integrate with your systems. Connect seamlessly with your HR, payroll, BI, communication and applicant tracking systems through our public APIs or flat file transfer via SFTP, whichever partners and platforms you use.
Keep access secure. Single sign-on (SSO) keeps logins simple and secure, and a complete audit trail records every change made to the schedule.
Rely on it at scale. Round-the-clock infrastructure monitoring and clear SLAs keep things running smoothly, with our Customer Support team on hand via in-app and web chat whenever you need them.
