RELEX enables accurate staffing by analyzing workload drivers like customer footfall, sales transactions, and delivery volumes to forecast the time spent in different retail-specific tasks down to 15-minute intervals. This ensures alignment of staffing levels with actual demand, reducing both overstaffing and understaffing issues. Optimized resource planning minimizes unnecessary labor costs, including overtime and temporary worker expenses during peak periods.
Early visibility into future workload helps identify capacity bottlenecks, allowing proactive adjustments like smoothing deliveries or reallocating resources to maintain operational stability.
