Our scheduling needs

We coordinate around 300 employees worldwide with the aid of PlanningPME.
Previously, we were lacking a tool that could manage the scheduling coordination to enable the staff to access the scheduling that relates to them and their area of work.
It was necessary to optimise time; this led to a major scheduling and coordination effort as all the staff communicated individually between themselves.
Apart from this, we also needed a scheduling solution where several kinds of tasks could be displayed.

Management of worldwide operations

Our staff can consult their own rendez-vous every day and schedule our service technicians worldwide.
Furthermore, we can always see when and where other colleagues have been deployed. Jobs are quickly and easily scheduled and coordinated.
