Case Study: Westfalen Weser Netz achieves more accurate staff cost planning with Timegrip 4PLAN

Staff Cost Planning and More Efficient Processes With Westfalen Weser

Westfalen Weser Netz GmbH, a regional energy network operator, faced challenges in accurately planning and controlling its staff costs due to regulatory pressures and an inefficient, Excel-based process. To address misalignment in cost allocation and the need to plan for workforce reductions, the company implemented Timegrip's 4PLAN solution for more flexible and detailed workforce planning.

By using Timegrip's 4PLAN, Westfalen Weser Netz gained the ability to plan with "negative NNs" for future reductions and map costs against its organizational structure. This resulted in a major reduction in variances between planned and actual staff costs, significant time savings in preparing forecasts, and greater planning security through more transparent and detailed analysis at the employee level.
