Case Study: One Floral Group achieves 80–85% reduction in scheduling time and significant labor cost savings with Celayix Software

One Floral Reduces Scheduling Time and Labor Costs

One Floral Group, a Canadian nursery and garden grower employing 200–500 people (peaking near 500 seasonally), struggled with manual scheduling in Excel that consumed 10–20 hours a week, introduced payroll errors, hid overtime, and made accurate departmental budgeting impossible. To address this, One Floral Group implemented Celayix Software’s shift-scheduling and time & attendance solution (including the eTime Xpress interface) to automate scheduling and capture detailed punch-to-task time data.

Celayix Software’s implementation connected to One Floral Group’s existing hand-punch hardware and payroll system, letting HR and supervisors build and adjust schedules quickly, match punches to scheduled tasks, and run automated reports. The result: scheduling time fell by 80–85% to 2–3 hours weekly, reporting time dropped by 95% (saving roughly 10 hours/week), clearer overtime visibility and reduced labor costs, and improved labor cost tracking and budgeting.
