CyberShift Unveils New Employee Scheduling and Optimization Modules for Specialty Retailers at 2010 American Payroll Association 28th Annual Congress

Innovative Applications Help Organizations Align Workforces With Customer and Operational Requirements


PARSIPPANY, NJ--(Marketwire - May 26, 2010) -  CyberShift, a global provider of workforce management and expense management software and services, today announced its new scheduling and optimization applications for Specialty Retailers at the APA Annual Congress. Designed for organizations that need to dynamically schedule staff, manage compliance and minimize cost, these modules reflect CyberShift's expertise in creating award-winning workforce management solutions.

Morné Swart, CyberShift's vice president of Product Management, commented, "You cannot manage what you cannot see, which is why we've developed these new employee scheduling and optimization modules for Specialty Retailers. They deliver visibility where it is needed most, especially in those instances where store managers need to schedule with a degree of precision that ensures utmost customer satisfaction and maximum profitability." He continued, "The initial response to these modules has been extremely positive and we're looking forward to demonstrating these capabilities to the attendees of this year's APA Congress."

CyberShift's new applications focus on the needs of Specialty Retailers, allowing managers to quickly accommodate rapidly changing operational requirements or fluctuations in customer demand. A powerful optimization engine ensures that the right people are in the right jobs at the right times, while managing compliance needs and reducing the need for costly overtime. Leveraging CyberShift's easy-to-use dashboard approach, these modules enable users to allocate staff based on required activities, including detailed task definitions. CyberShift's underlying sophisticated Distributed Enterprise Platform™ provides global business rules and workflow engines that give companies the ability to manage and alert users when the staffing mix is less than optimal, as well as immediately allow the assessment of the impact of staffing decisions on key business metrics.

As with all CyberShift applications, these new modules can be delivered via its World Class Software-as-a-Service model, which provides industry leading service levels and data protection, or as an On Premise license.

The exhibits at the 2010 American Payroll Association (APA) 28th Congress  will open on Wednesday, May 26 through Friday, May 28, 2010. CyberShift will exhibit this application, as well as its award-winning Workforce and Expense Management solutions, in booth no. 500.
