Case Study: Lawrence Merchandising achieves automated workforce scheduling and real-time reporting with Movista

How Lawrence Merchandising uses cloud based workforce management to schedule labor and ensure quality execution

Lawrence Merchandising, a retail merchandising services provider working with clients such as 3M, Lindt, Target and SodaStream across the US and Puerto Rico, faced time-consuming manual scheduling, limited ways for part-time staff to accept and verify work, and difficulty consolidating field data. To tackle these challenges they adopted Movista’s cloud-based workforce management and scheduling solution to automate labor assignments, simplify job acceptance and verification, and streamline operational data collection.

Movista implemented automated scheduling based on skills, location and preferences, a mobile workflow for employees to accept and complete assignments, and real-time data collection and reporting. As a result, Lawrence Merchandising can schedule merchandising across hundreds of distributed staff and stores, employees quickly review and verify jobs, and managers deliver up-to-date project reporting to key customers—improving execution speed, accuracy and visibility.
