Adoption of a Workforce Management system is not a discrete or finite exercise, it is an ongoing journey. WorkPlace’s System Health Check is designed to ensure that our customers are returned best value from their investment and ensure they obtain the needed Return On Investment.

Over time and with changes to personnel and practices, the benefits originally enjoyed by customers can diminish. However these benefits can be restored and revitalised by checking the effectiveness of the system configuration and parameters. These checks typically include:

• Ensure suitability of the Operating Model for the Business Processes as evolved
• Ensure accuracy of Workload Demand generation
• Ensure appropriate levels of employee flexibility built into the system
• Remove / archive data which is out of date
• Review training and support requirements
• Review relevant KPI's or their adoption

In addition, there may be more structural and fundamental elements in existence which can be reviewed to ensure the system is operating to its full potential. Adoption of a more considered, strategic approach can improve compliance, increase utilisation and gain significant benefit. Issues that may require a longer term approach can include:

• Workforce Management process re-design
• Budget, Forecast and Schedule alignment
• Introduction of more flexibility in employee working hours
• Working pattern re-design
• System modifications

WorkPlace can support its customers to review and re-invigorate their existing Workforce Management solution to potentially deliver the quick wins and longer term benefits.
