Case Study: Factorial automates compliant shift scheduling with Timefold

Factorial scales shift scheduling with Timefold’s 70+ built-in constraints

Factorial, a European HR and workforce management platform, faced challenges with manual and error-prone shift scheduling that could not scale across multiple countries with different labor regulations. Their existing system lacked the ability to generate shifts from hourly demand forecasts, creating a bottleneck for their growing customer base. They partnered with Timefold and its Shift Scheduling API to overcome these obstacles.

Timefold's solution provided automated, compliant shift generation out-of-the-box, including support for hourly demand-based scheduling and real-time re-optimization for last-minute changes. This integration replaced long manual processes, giving Factorial's customers accurate schedules with a single click. The fixed monthly pricing from Timefold also ensured predictable operational costs, allowing Factorial to confidently scale its features across thousands of employees and locations.
