Labor Scheduling Optimization: Warehouse and Distribution Labor Scheduling Software

Manhattan Associates’ Labor Scheduling Optimization software is specifically designed to meet the unique labor requirements of complex distribution center and warehouse operations by maximizing productivity and scheduling based on key variables like employee skill sets and workload demand forecasts. Labor Scheduling Optimization uses advanced optimization technology to automatically plan and prescribe employee schedules that ensure the most efficient use of labor resources.

When combined with our industry-leading Labor Management solution, Labor Scheduling Optimization is proven to trim labor costs by approximately 6 percent to 9 percent—a substantial operating expense reduction when you consider that an estimated 55% of warehouse management operating costs are related to labor expenses. Other key benefits include:

  • Automation of manual labor scheduling methods to increase labor scheduling efficiency
  • Workforce allocation balanced to demand fulfillment
  • Employee skill sets, seniority and operational needs optimally matched to workload demand
  • Increased throughput, enhanced service levels and improved customer satisfaction
