Case Study: Manassas Park Fire and Rescue Department achieves simpler, time-saving scheduling with Aladtec

Simplified Scheduling Enabled Staff to Spend Time on More Critical Responsibilities

Manassas Park Fire and Rescue Department struggled to manage 24/48 staffing for its 30-person team, first with manual Excel spreadsheets and then with scheduling software that still didn’t meet its unique needs. The department needed a simpler, more efficient way to handle shifts, leave requests, Kelly Days, and special-event staffing, so it selected Aladtec.

Aladtec implemented a public safety scheduling solution that automated leave approvals, enabled mobile schedule access and shift swaps, and added rules for staffing limits and approvals. The department was able to learn the system within two months, reduce manual scheduling work, and assign a dedicated staffing officer, saving considerable time each day and making scheduling manageable as the department grows by 50% with 15 new hires.
