MILWAUKEE -- RedPrairie, a consumer-driven optimization company, unveiled a comprehensive new Workforce Management Solution and partner strategy last week at RedConnect:2006, RedPrairie's annual partner conference.
RedPrairie serves the labor management market, and it has transformed its labor management solution into a comprehensive workforce management suite and practice designed to optimize retail and supply chain workforce processes, end to end (E2e).
The firm's expanded Workforce Management solution suite consists of capabilities [image-nocss] such as demand planning, schedule optimization, task scheduling, learning management and measurement and compliance. In addition, this redefined solution includes exclusive capabilities such as intraday workforce planning and a learning management system that strengthens RedPrairie's ability to optimize workforces based on real-time consumer demand.
The offering includes a newly acquired advanced scheduling application that, when coupled with RedPrairie's Workforce Management solution, is able to factor in known employee productivity levels to drive savings and efficiencies.
When we challenged conventional thinking and traditional labor management approaches, we found that companies would substantially benefit from a dramatically different, end-to-end approach to workforce management, said Tim Conroy, RedPrairie's president of distribution productivity solutions.
RedPrairie also announced last week at RedConnect:2006 the appointment of Jim Hoefflin as senior vice president of its workforce management group, and John Murphy as vice president of product marketing.
