Build your ideal workforce

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 OnPick 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.

How it works

OnShift assists you in ensuring that you have the right amount of staff on hand at all times. Based on your current staffing, turnover, and predicted demand, we recommend realistic staffing levels for each time period.

OnShift considers a huge number of factors when calculating the optimal staffing ratio, including everything from the cost of hiring or retraining of employees to the efficiency rate of each type of employee.
