The Challenge


A client required an intelligent workforce scheduling system to efficiently assign employees to shifts while considering:

  • Multiple Constraints – Employee working hours, vacation plans, and company policies.

  • Complex Optimization Requirements – Shift allocation needed to be fair, efficient, and adaptable.

  • Manual Scheduling Inefficiencies – The existing system required significant manual effort and was prone to errors.

 

The Solution

Wiz Digital Services developed an AI-powered rostering optimization system using OptaPlanner to automate shift assignments, ensuring optimal workforce scheduling while adhering to constraints.
