Case Study: Stage Labor Company achieves a 68% reduction in overstaffing with Roosted's Schedulehead

How Schedulehead decreased overstaffing by 68%

Stage Labor Company, a large provider of hands, riggers, forks and aerial cam operators with a 2,580-person roster, struggled to track performance as it scaled. Using Excel and ad-hoc write-ups, the company faced chronic no-shows, late arrivals and verification gaps that drove about 35% overstaffing and frequent last-minute cover headaches.

Roosted implemented its Schedulehead platform—using performance tracking, Check-in and Autotext bots plus SMS reminders and automation—to tighten staffing and communications. Within six weeks the active roster dropped to 1,863, overstaffing fell from 35% to 10% (a 68% reduction reported), late arrivals and no-shows dropped 75%, and time wasted on overstaffing and last-minute covers fell dramatically (about an 87% reduction, with the case study summarizing a 90% improvement in 60 days).
