On February 8, 2019 the timebook IT company, the resident of Skolkovo Foundation, announced retail companies release of the solution for automatic planning and replanning of working schedules of employees. When planning changes a system considers load of retail chain stores at the specific moment and also working schedules, holidays and sick-lists. The "smart" solution timebook autoplan, according to the developer, will allow retail chain stores to save from 10 to 15% of wage fund due to more exact forecasting of necessary number of employees in each shop.

According to Institute of labor resources in Kronos Incorporated, from each 10 hours of the paid work of the employee of shop more than an hour it is wasted because of the wrong distribution of personnel resources.

"Smart" algorithm timebook unloads data for 2-3 years from CRM, ERP and others accounting systems about sales, a flow of buyers, marketing campaigns and also other factors which can affect need of increase in number of personnel for outlet. A system analyzes and compares all these indicators to find in them unevident patterns. For example, it allows to detect dependence between a flow of buyers and such factors as weather conditions, the carried-out marketing actions, seasonality and even visual merchandising, noted in timebook.

Calculation is conducted for each 5-15 minutes – it helps to understand what volume of work will be during every period, and in connection therewith to build the optimal working schedule for a command. Managers cease to build standard circuits on 25 people on change daily and see in what of days it is necessary to call 27 employees and when it is enough of twenty. At the same time the accuracy of the timebook autoplan system depends on the number of the processed data and can reach 97%, the developer claims.
