Strategic Budget and Capacity Planning, Scenariomanagement
ORion-PI®
Staff Planning & Scheduling not
only allows the operational planning of your workforce but also considers
long-term planning scenarios. The solution thus responds to the increasing
importance of strategic budget and
capacity planning issues and varying shift and working time models.
Longterm, strategic budget and capacity planning with ORion-PI®
includes:
- Comparison
of different shift and budget scenarios
- Scenarios
for long-term assignment
- Calculation
of the demand of temporary workers
- Computation
of optimal working time models
- Use
of planned marketing and sales figures as demand forecasts
- Demand
forecasts
- Averaged productivity figures
- Seasonal fluctuation and
periodical distribution
- Evaluation
for controlling reports and cost developments
- Long-term vacation planning
- Scenarios
considering vacation time and sickness percentages
- Development of qualifications
A long-term workforce
management is based on future demand forecasts.
In predicting future trends as well as expected order developments ORion-PI®
relies on various data sources. For example, future data can be extrapolated
from planned sales and marketing figures into the system or as an alternative
(or in combination) marketing and sales figures of the past. Thereupon based
seasonal specifics, information on upcoming campaigns or well-known percentage breakdown
between working areas can also be taken into consideration in the budget and
capacity planning process.
ORion-PI® forecasts the staff availability in the future and
matches the results with the predicted personnel demand. In the process the
software solution considers qualification profiles and possible bottlenecks.
Where required it can even initiate further trainings, help to identify optimal
shift models or evaluate how to best balance permanent and temporary workers
per period.
Strategic budget and capacity planning with ORion-PI® allows
the simulation of planning scenarios in order to analyze the
productivity development, to control the throughput or to simulate working time
models. All relevant data can be modified interactively. The graphical and tabular representation of changes in the
plan and its effects on the rest of the process chain provide for invaluable transparency. The quick comparison of
alternative planning scenarios now is possible.
Furthermore, ORion-PI® allows the generation of reports for strategic controlling
issues. In addition to the analysis of single cost centers you can also create
overviews of the development of qualifications. All of these are meant to
support strategic decision-making,
can be saved and compared with alternative scenarios as well as modified data.
