How our Planning solutions help companies to increase their performances and management

PlanningPME and PlanningConnect provide an excellent solution for planning. A unique calendar view, simple to understand and clear, data views composed of simple, easily readable lists and analysis tools that display advanced indicators have been done for those who need to make planning-related decisions:
evaluation of productivity, increase in operational staff based on opportunities and future workload, to name a few examples.

This is what our planning solutions are made for: PlanningConnect complements PlanningPME and offers a complete perspective dedicated to business roles that are not typically users of a planning tool.

For reaching this goals PlanningConnect joins operational staff to planned activities, offering a direct match between planning and measuring of Tasks and Projects.

We were looking for a planning system that would meet the specific scheduling needs of our external services (cleaning, facility management, libraries) with a large number of staff to coordinate across different clients. The software had to be easy to use, allowing us to manage the service with our coordinators while also speeding up the communication of shifts to the various staff and collecting service execution data in a single tool. By leveraging the planning features of PlanningPME and the time transmission and collection capabilities of PlanningConnect, we have improved management times and overall management capacity.

We required a planning solution that would connect data from our AS400 with installation plans at our clients' sites and enable technicians to handle field activities more easily. PlanningPME was quickly connected with the ERP software, allowing us to schedule teams immediately. We subsequently added PlanningConnect functionalities, which, together with the App's features, ensured that we avoided forwarding work orders while receiving signed intervention reports in real time from the team leaders' schedules.

With PlanningPME, I managed to meet all the primary management and planning needs. Now, with a single screen, I can have a complete overview of the situation of the technicians and shared resources; at a glance, I can identify who is busy and what the first available day is to carry out an activity. In the planning of vacations, overlaps and inconsistencies are immediately highlighted.

The simplicity and flexibility of the planning itself, which for our type of activity is constantly changing, has allowed us to speed up the planning process and make it accessible to more people.

For my work, it is extremely convenient for planning staff commitments in the short, medium, and long term. It is easy to use, but at the same time, it offers the possibility to schedule different types of events and resources. We use it a lot in the office and it is really convenient for sharing events and commitments.

PlanningPME is a powerful program that helps us keep track of multiple kinds of tasks performed by our technicians through extensive planning capabilities. We find its complementary tool, PlanningConnect, especially useful both in its base suite form, that we use for analysis and automation purposes, such as scheduling recurring e-mails showing which activities from a specific time frame should be invoiced, and in its app form. The latter, in particular, is well-suited for recording work hours, travel hours and expenses, as well as creating service reports that can be easily shared with the customers.
