Using forecast inbound and outbound volume, our client can ensure the right staff are consistently scheduled to work on the right tasks at the right time to meet all KPIs.
Significantly reducing planning time, Optimize enables the DC operations teams to generate schedules with all constraints considered, compare scenarios and set the schedule, in a matter of minutes.
Where re-optimization used to take hours to achieve, this team can now reschedule in only a few clicks. Through this process alone, their planners are saving a substantial amount of time every week.
This client previously had to wait until each shift was over to understand productivity metrics, which made accurate intraday decision making difficult. Integrating with their existing WMS, Optimize enables DC managers to understand all aspects of their team’s performance to the last 5 minutes. Productivity issues can now be addressed as soon as possible, ensuring KPIs are achieved and every order filled to meet store profiles, every shift.
An impressive 6% increase in team member productivity has been achieved since the implementation of Optimize.
