Competitive pressures are driving the need for real-time resource allocation, collaboration, and orchestration where staffing, planning, operations, distribution and inventory must be synchronized. This type of tightly integrated operation has become a necessity to consistently deliver a competitive product through direct and third party distribution channels. Real-time resource optimization, the ability to anticipate and manage staffing requirements, makes the task of staffing management less complex, less costly, and easier to manage. In addition, it is the only way to adapt staffing to workload variations by integrating staffing management with planning, operations, distribution and inventory to insure smooth product delivery and support. This allows you to guarantee the availability of necessary resources and skills.
Only Oslo provides a Real-time Resource Governance solution capable of determining resource needs based on the numerous, constantly changing factors that must be accounted for in a fluid production process, identify bottlenecks and resource conflicts, anticipate required skills and determine training needs. In addition, only Oslo can provide what-if scenarios for resource management.
Oslo accomplishes this by defining the different resource types and skills (e.g. operators, trainers,…), and dynamically matching the required skills with the production needs while taking into account the varying factors that comprise the production process. This results in increased productivity of 20%, reduced operational cost of 25% to 50%, and fast return on investment of approximately 6 months.
