LABOR RESOURCE PLANNING

Looking for ways to reduce labor costs and increase output?

  • Do you manage your shop's capacity?
  • Does it seem that you have too many or too few workers during the month?
  • Do you know your shop's labor requirements for the next 3 months? The next 6 months?
  • Are you shipping customer orders on time?

If NO, your company could benefit from Labor Resource Planning….

What is Labor Resource Planning?

Labor Resource Planning allows you to "see" future labor needs and schedule your work in the most efficient manner to meet those needs.

How will Labor Resource Planning help me?

  • Provides the needed lead time to react and plan for future labor requirements
  • Improves execution of production schedules
  • Gives better on-time delivery to the customer
  • Reduces labor costs

How can MMEC help me implement Labor Resource Planning in my shop?

An MMEC Field Engineer works with you to identify the inputs to the planning process. Once the inputs are known, MMEC works with you to set up a spreadsheet (actual planning can be done manually but is a much more powerful tool using a PC with spreadsheet software) and provides the necessary training to use and sustain the planning process. Implementation typically takes 1-2 weeks.
