How Does WFM-Consultancy Help Yield Better Results?

Workforce Management is a complex area to navigate, especially for multinational companies that have to contend with the laws of many regions or ambitious companies that want to grow. And the ongoing trend of hybrid working brings new challenges.

Even the most advanced WFM tools can fall short if not wielded to their utmost capacity. There are often untapped optimization opportunities and process enhancements awaiting discovery.

At MANUS Software Europe, our mission is to ensure 100% control and 0% waste for our workforce management software customers. Our consultancy services commence with establishing robust processes and evolve into bespoke strategies designed to yield efficiency gains and diminish labor expenses.

You don’t have to be a customer of ours to benefit this service though – read on to learn more.

Tailored Services for Existing Customers and New Contacts

We offer two versions of our consultancy service: one for existing customers and other for businesses that are not using our workforce management system. Both will provide valuable insights into your WFM processes but they cater to distinct stages of your journey.

For Existing Customer

For our existing customers, we provide a continuous improvement service. Each month, a dedicated business consultant works closely with you to analyze your current processes and how you use our workforce management solutions. This helps identify areas for improvement, ensuring you get the most out of MANUS WFM and continually optimize your processes for better results.

Whether it’s resource allocation, employee scheduling, attendance tracking, time evaluation, payroll, compliance, reporting, real-time monitoring for numerous purposes, or anything else, we’ll make sure you’re implementing it in the optimal way.

An added benefit is that, as your business needs change, you will continue to refine your WFM strategy.
