Workforce Productivity– Why It Is Your Concern
both productivity and prot. This begins
when employees stamp-in and includes,
among other things, planning of their daily
tasks and the aggregation of employee data
into key gures required by the management.
How to make best use of the optimization
potentials available? Interex Workforce
Productivity solutions identify the necessary
prerequisites and, compared with the clas-
sic Workforce Management, offer signicant
enhancement. Workforce Productivity stands
for the comprehensive treatment of products,
resources and consulting services, but focus-
ing on the human element and his individual
contribution to increase the revenue of a
company or organization. That is why Work-
force Productivity solutions not only encom-
pass the classic Workforce Management but
also strategic HR Consulting, such as Labor
Time Management and associated solutions
such as HR Management and security sy-
stems. Workforce Productivity highlightsareas that are ready for optimization and cov-
ers everything from a single department up to
complex organizational structures. Workforce
Productivity is the basis for strategic and op-
erational planning, and for decision processes
resulting thereof.
It is the foundation for transparent and
understandable processes and designed to
increase productivity and efciency within a
company or organization.
Nowadays, it is hard to nd an organization or
company that is not involved in prot maximization
and process optimization. The methods applied range
from increasing sales, and cost reduction programs
up to measures to increase productivity. While these
measures became state of the art in the automation
of machine-oriented processes, the ‘human resource’
is not only gaining importance, but is the focus of fu-
ture optimization efforts. Tranparent yet comprehen-
sive registration of manpower is the key to increasing

– Personnel Scheduling in
Manufacturing and Industrial Firms
Manpower requirements in manufacturing
and industrial enterprises chiey depend on
incoming orders and may be subject to sea-
sonal uctuations. This results in peaks and
valleys in demand which must be met by an
efcient HR management. Interex provides
demand-oriented personnel scheduling solu-
tions to avoid cost-intensive over- and un-
der-stafng. Flexible, open schedule models
or stafng leveling required for each machine
or workgroups can be determined by the in-
tegrated advance personnel scheduling soft-
ware. Depending on the solution selected,
your order data can even be imported from
upstream ERP systems. With the personnel
scheduling system, orders can be staffed and
ctional accounts generated on the basis se-
quence optimization. Once the personnel are
assigned to a job or project, the target hoursrequired by cost and performance accounting,
can be automatically determined and trans-
mitted to associated systems, if there are any.
The integrated graphical user interface (GUI)
of the work location schedule allows the
scheduler to reschedule employees to other
cost centers – and in real time. In this way,
it is possible to avoid unnecessary slack pe-
riods and expensive overtime. The absence-
time calendar can be created for each employ-
ee or for any group of employees. Employee
absences, whether a planned vacation or an
illness, are recorded by the scheduler in the
personnel department, so the ramications
immediately cascade through the shift sched-
ule appearance. The automatic stafng level
balancing easily allows reorganizing of the
shift schedule. In order to respond to short-
term uctuations in stafng levels, the sched-
uler can call up a clearly presented schedule
and have the additional personnel demand
displayed on their monitor at any time. With
a few mouse clicks, it is possible to automati-
cally adjust shift schedules, even being alert-
ed to many of the legal and collective labor
regulations that affect this schedule arrange-
ment. With Interex’ Workforce Productiv-
ity in place, you are supported in your fund-
ed commercial decisions by comprehensive
“what if” scenarios.

Daily Routine in Manufacturing– Many Questions to Answer!
Fluctuating Stafng Levels
- Is there a Tool that Can Help?
Yes, there is. Remember, neither paper & pen-
cil nor spreadsheets alone will help in sched-
uling stafng level uctuations. Compared
with other solutions, the stafng level balanc-
ing function of the Interex scheduling solu-
tion provides decisive advantages. Fluctuat-
ing demands can be balanced automatically,
even considering shift allocation and em-
ployee qualications. Employees are read-
ily reassigned to work locations where they
are needed, considering balance limits as wellas functions, qualications, shift preferences,
days or time accounts – all identied in the
data record of each employee. From now on,
the scheduler will be able to trace the histori-
cal demand for temporary or extra workers
directly from the advance personnel sched-
ule. Allowances are made for yearly work
time accounts with positive or negative bal-
ance. Based on their labor time model, em-
ployees can be scheduled in such a way that
the scheduled weekly hours might exceed the
actual hours worked while simultaneously
considering their day off preferences. Besides
this, the work location schedule breaks each
day down into user-denable time intervals
– and thus, allows scheduling employees min-
ute by minute. Using the toolset provided, it
is possible – and comparatively easy – to ef-
ciently smooth out uctuations in the order
of events.
How Can the Number of Temporary
and Loaned Employees Required Be
Determined, While Considering the Time
Accounts of the Core Skeleton Staff?Stafng information, calculations and entries
previously handled manually or with the aid
of spreadsheets, are now implemented by the
Interex work location schedule with a few
clicks of your mouse. The qualication-based
stafng levels your ERP system data recorded
are exported into the Interex personnel
scheduling system. Then, taking each indi-
viduals’ expertise, the hourly accounts, days
off, and other parameters into consideration,
the system can estimate and then schedule
your skeleton staff in compliance with the

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/workforce-productivity-manufacturing-and-industry 5/8
work-load-to-time-off ratio, a signicantly
higher transparency can be achieved. To ad-
dress the question about fairness, you can
easily demonstrate how the work load is al-
located and how shift preferences have been
considered by reviewing the time accounts
with your employees.
How Can Personnel - the Bottleneck
Resource - Be Managed in an Optimum
Manner?
The Interex personnel scheduling system
provides an overview, specifying not only
which employee has been scheduled and
for how many hours, but also for how many
hours this employee will still be available.
Any employee in the system can be assigned
to specic tasks, and scheduled or re-sched-
uled on either a long-term basis, or minute byminute.
How Can Optimum Shift Stafng Le-
vels Be Dened? Can Stafng Levels Be
Checked as to Their Schedule Quality?
Order-oriented manpower assignment of our
personnel scheduling solution is based on the
order data supplied by your ERP system. To
create a basis for job order planning, you can
send reference data related to optimum staff-
ing levels to the connected ERP system.
expected availability. Temporary and loaned
employees can then be ‘planned for’ based
on qualication within the shortest possible
time, helping by suggesting a proposal based
on your company’s previous experience. To
implement the scheduling adjustments, you
can condently accept a proposed solution
as-is, or perform minor changes on your own.
Is It Possible to Schedule Direct Labor
Hours Required in the Future, Now?
Yes, it is. With the Interex scheduling solu-
tion you are able to keep track of all the time
accounts. You can easily get an idea of how
many direct labor hours are available to be
assigned to specic employee groups. Due to
the integrated time management system, such
long-term planning of production plants can
be based on your historical data, and becomesinherently simple. Any changes in the shift
schedule are immediately displayed in the
time accounts and vice versa.
How Can Scheduling Fairness and
Employee Satisfaction Be Improved?
Our software solution includes automatic
stafng level balancing - allowing you to
dene the criteria, on which your optimum
stafng levels are calculated. The system ad-
justs the scheduling based on real data that is
captured automatically. Besides an improved

Online Time Management
and Access Control
Safety and security play an important role,
especially in sensitive areas. Doors, gates or
ofce rooms must be protected against un-
authorized access. If visitors are admitted to
these protected areas, they have to be thor-
oughly monitored while in these areas. This
is what the Interex access control system
is responsible for. The system also allows re-
cording attendance and absence times. Not
only incoming and outgoing time stamps are
recorded but also absence times, i. e. when
employees are out on business or on vaca-
tion. You get time account management at no
extra effort.
Ofine Solutions
Ofine access control systems are exible and
low-cost security components offering high-
est comfort. The stand-alone terminals can be
easily mounted to doors, do not require any
network connection, and provide a reliable
and fast security solution. What makes the
system advantageous is the fact that – due totheir compatibility – a variety of existing cre-
dential badges (including those from Proxif,
LEGIC and Mifare) can be used at these ac-
cess control systems.
Visitor Management
The visitor management system allows you
to welcome new visitors and manage the re-
cords of regular guests and of their vehicles.
It makes no difference whether it is imple-
mented in a secretary’s ofce, at the gates,
in the foyer, at a counter, or via the internet:

Assign employee hosts to your visitors, print
badges and dene access rights to areas your
guests are allowed to enter. The badges of all
visitors are automatically checked for block-
ing periods. Visitors can register at separate
visitor self-registration stations and entertheir data either via the keypad or the busi-
ness card scanner. To support your personnel
at the gate or the reception desk, the visitor
management system also offers the ability to
enroll in advance both visitors and their up-
coming visits.
Badge Production
Modern badges have to meet the highest de-
mands on protection against forgery and must
be compatible with other badge reading sys-
tems. Miscellaneous coding techniques can be
applied and merged with Interex solutions.
The photos of your employees and visitors
are captured digitally. State-of-the-art video
and image processing technology and thermal
sublimation printers enable the user to easily
create badges for employees and visitors.
Access Control and CCTV-Based
Surveillance Systems
All modern control and alarm monitoring sys-
tems should lessen the impact of a security
breach or a hazard. The digital video record-
ing and monitoring system (CCTV) allows the
system to identify persons, and reliably re-
trace security issues at the terminal locations,
detect motion or even the presence of smokeor re. If required, visual and audible alarms
can be triggered. Automatic response such as
notifying the local re department for such an
event, or activating a camera at a fault loca-
tion is not considered routine. The integrated
motion detection system operates particularly
efciently as video recordings are made only
if a motion has been detected. This saves hard
disk capacity.
With Interex solutions you are able to oper-
ate, control and monitor all security compo-
nents from a central place.
