Schedule24 Standard 4.5.1

In today�s economy, businesses are struggling to get more done with less. Whether you�re an HR director of a global corporation or a small business owner with a single-digit staff, your profitability is directly impacted by the productivity of your employees. We designed Schedule24 Professional as a specialized scheduling solution for companies of all sizes and industries.

Why Do You Need Workflow Management?

Achieving the ideal balance between the size of your staff, the amount of working hours, and your employee-related costs is critical to delivering a premier product or service while maximizing productivity and profits. In many organizations, the practice of staff management is delegated to the HR or IT department, where it�s handled by people who are unaware of the many complexities, risks, and missed opportunities. In smaller businesses, managers might use spreadsheets or white boards to organize and schedule staff. In reality, successful workflow requires a complex, carefully thought-out solution, and what appears to be simplest path can often result in serious, revenue-draining consequences.

Without a solid, well-planned staff management strategy in place, you�ll run the risk of:

* Managers making uninformed decisions without realizing the sweeping impact of staff costs
* Decreased or delayed production cycles that lead to falling revenue, lost customers, and frustrated employees
* �Lost data� that�s manually entered into spreadsheets and never tracked or quantified
* Frequent ad-hoc shift changes that lead to disgruntled employees and lower productivity levels
* Possible labor law violations and noncompliance with employee legislation
* Protracted timelines and exceeded budgets
* Lack of knowledge about the relationship between staff costs and revenue

Effective workforce management can quickly become a full�time job�but you don�t have to handle it alone. Millions of businesses have discovered the huge benefits of outsourcing their staff scheduling to a qualified third�party provider.

A specialized workforce management solution like Schedule24 Professional gives you the tools you need to make employee scheduling an integral part of your operational structure. It�s designed to encourage communication between employers and employees, motivate and inspire team members and achieve effective long�range planning.

How Is Intellicate Different?

A majority of workforce management solutions are offered as �bolt-on� modules tacked onto larger integrated systems. While these �enterprise-level� solutions claim to handle every imaginable business function�from HR to Time and Attendance to Payroll�most have a super-sized price tag to match. Implementing one of these comprehensive solutions can require millions of dollars and countless hours.

And in many cases, companies discover (too late) that the workforce management module has limited capabilities. Most of these �do-it-all� HR systems simply don�t have the built�in logic to handle complex, time-based scheduling patterns. Often, numerous customizations are required to add the necessary features, suddenly turning the �free� module into a very expensive enhancement.

With Schedule24 Professional, you don�t need a Fortune 500 budget to experience big time and cost savings. You�ll pay for only what you need�efficient, intelligent workforce management strategies�and not for an endless list of features you�ll never use. Most of our clients start reaping the returns on their investment within just a few weeks of implementation.
