For Manufacturing Operations

The right people on every line, every shift.

  • Plan shifts around production. Build rotas from your production plan, so each line, cell and shift has the people it needs when the schedule changes.
  • Match skills to every line. Schedule by skill, training and certification, so only competent, authorised people are on specialist machines and processes, and you can see where you're short.
  • Control overtime. Spot gaps early and fill them from your own team's availability, with the cost visible, before overtime or agency cover becomes the default.
Auto Schedule Card
For HR & People teams

Shift patterns that work for your people and your plant.

  • Manage complex shift patterns. Handle continuous, rotating and fixed patterns, nights and weekends, with rotas that share unsociable hours fairly and check rest and working time rules for you.
  • Cover absence without the scramble. When someone's off, see who's available and qualified and offer the shift straight away, keeping lines running and supervisors off the phone.
  • Give shop-floor teams visibility. Teams see their rotas, request leave and swap shifts from their phone, so they know where they stand and your supervisors spend less time on admin.
Leave and Schedule Analysis
For Finance

Labour cost you can see before it is spent.

  • 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.
Labour Cost Card
For IT & Systems

Fits into the stack you already run.

  • 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.
