Rostima Scheduler™ is Rostima’s state of the art resource planning and optimization software. By incorporating resource plans from Rostima’s own DutyManager™ or other data sources, Rostima Scheduler™ generates schedules extremely quickly and effectively. This software has a very sophisticated Schedule Creation Engine that matches resources to service at the lowest cost to your business.
Scheduler provides you with:
- Automatically built schedules
- Fast “what if” analysis based on workplace rules
- The ability to match employees to customer service demands
- Costing of schedules after changes to the schedule have been made
- Highly graphical display with graphs to overlay resources
- The assigning of employees by rotation or preference (including seniority)
The Scheduler module provides automated schedule optimization functionality. Typically demand data is fed from one of Rostima Planner modules, but can also be fed directly from other external sources as required. Scheduler allows employees to be scheduled across multiple departments/locations, maximizing employee utilization and significantly reducing costly overstaffing.
Scheduler’s state of the art algorithm significantly reduces time taken to generate a schedule (typically 20-30 minutes per week).
Senior Management alerts can be configured to inform key senior individuals in a timely manner if scheduled hours or costs are likely to exceed budgeted thresholds. Scheduler also provides strategic functionality to model potential changes in working patterns and measure cost effectiveness and feasibility.
Key benefits include:
- Reducing the time spent developing schedules by 20-50%
- Reducing the cost of schedules by 5-15%
- Reduction in overtime costs by 5-25%
- Reduction in staff turnover by 5 to 15%
- Increase in utilization by 5 - 20%
- Building schedules with employee-friendly day-off patterns
