BENEFITS
Control your labor and hiring costs
Close the gap between your future demand and the resources you have available to respond to change. Make strategic decisions about whether to hire, redeploy, or retrain employees based on data.
Match business strategy and activities
Run multiple simulations to evaluate the impact of future activities or events on your workforce, such as the opening of a new location or the launch of a new product.
Build your ideal workforce
To determine what your ideal workforce looks like, the recommendations take into account your staffing budget, location capacities, efficiency goals, and other resource constraints.
Workforce Capacity Planning connects strategic objectives with operational execution. It determines the timing and goals for staffing operations, as well as any areas in need of improvement.

Strategically plan your personnel
1
It becomes nearly impossible to manage uncertainty and varying future scenarios. You can create "what-if" scenarios with OnShift and calculate required workforce capacity based on key variables like recruitment costs and over or understaffing.
2
You can assemble the ideal workforce if staffing levels are clearly defined. This entails only hiring people for the time they are required, as well as eliminating any unnecessary labor and hiring costs. You can also speed up budgeting by streamlining processes like recruitment, headcount planning, training, and compensation.
