AI-supported shift planning for higher employee satisfaction and more productivity

Situation & Challenges

No future with Excel - With a high demand for their product and a workforce of over 91,000 employees, Siemens Energy faced many challenges in staff scheduling:

Staff absences at short notice and order requests
Difficult continuous utilization of machines
Manual management of data

The solution

In October 2020, shyftplan went live at the Berlin site. The Nuremberg and Mülheim an der Ruhr sites followed shortly afterwards. For the planners, administrative burdens and structural hurdles were overcome thanks to shyftplan’s application programming interface (API), which integrated with Siemens Energy’s existing systems and thus prevented data gaps.

“Instead of planning rigid 2- or 3-shift models, we can now give employees the opportunity to apply for their desired shifts independently. The tool automatically checks whether the general conditions are met.”

Result

Thanks to shyftplan, Siemens Energy now coordinates personnel seamlessly and without paper, taking into account machine capacities and order situations. Even when Siemens Energy plans up to 4 months in advance, they can react quickly to changes at short notice.

“The agile project introduction was a perfect fit for shyftplan and for us as a service location. The complete introduction within four months, in all workshops, is proof that shyftplan and the introduction concept worked”
