Companies today are increasingly fast paced. Managing resources efficiently is essential for any organization, but at times it can get a bit overwhelming. Whether it's scheduling employees, booking conference rooms, or allocating equipment, there's always a need for an efficient and streamlined approach.
With the release of one of our latest software features, companies can now easily set up a recurring roster for carparks, providing a wide range of benefits for businesses of all sizes. The “Repeating Roster” is a pre-set schedule that can be established to manage business car parking efficiently. It allows businesses to schedule parking for a specific time period in advance, then the system will automatically apply that schedule repeatedly. This can save your administrative team valuable time and effort that would otherwise be spent on manually scheduling these resources.
The benefits of setting up a recurring roster for resources are numerous.
Eliminates the need for manual scheduling, which can be a tedious and time-consuming task. This can free up time for managers and other staff members to focus on more important and higher value work.
Ensures that resources are allocated efficiently, minimising waste or clashes that may occur with manual scheduling.
Helps to improve overall productivity by ensuring that employees have a clear understanding of their work schedules in advance. This can lead to increased motivation and job satisfaction, as well as reducing the risk of absenteeism due to scheduling conflicts.
Enables managers to plan and forecast more accurately, providing a more strategic approach to resource allocation and ensuring that the right people are together in the office at the right time.
The most exciting benefit for us though, is that a recurring roster can be particularly beneficial for companies that are looking for innovative ways to reduce their carbon footprint and add to or kick off their sustainability initiatives.
It’s estimated that 20% of greenhouse gas emissions are attributable to transport, with 70% of that emitted by cars, SUVs, utes, vans and light trucks. A recent study on one of our customers, showed that they are on track to save approximately 60 tonnes of CO2 per annum, simply by planning who was parking where on a given day. People with no car park, either work from home or are encouraged to take alternate modes of transport, meaning reduction in emissions and congestion.
Flex customers are saving money already on reduced commercial parking requirements, while saving their team the ever-increasing daily cost of parking. The increased automation of a repeating roster is just adding another raft of benefits, not least of which is keeping our planet sweet for the next generation!
