Case Study
Staff Scheduling System
A scheduling application modelled on a spreadsheet system, redesigned for flexibility and simplicity.
This involved the design and development of a staff scheduling application for use in the stores of a major UK retailer; it was modelled on a spreadsheet system already used by that retailer for scheduling of staff.
The new application needed to provide a more flexible solution than the one already available.
The system provided many critical business ratios in real-time that were previously calculated by hand.
This greatly reduced input errors, and allowed the managers involved more time to analyse the performance of their stores.
