Case Study: Valvoline cuts scheduling time and scales to 3,500 stores with Workday

Valvoline cuts weekly scheduling time from 2 hours to 15 minutes with Workday

Valvoline, an automotive service retailer, faced the challenge of scaling its operations to 3,500 stores with an end-of-life HR system and a cumbersome, non-user-friendly time tracking solution. To support its growth and "promote from within" culture, the company needed a modern, automated system. Valvoline selected Workday, implementing its Human Capital Management, Payroll, Absence, Time Tracking, and Scheduling products.

By leveraging Workday, specifically its AI-driven Scheduling and Labor Optimization, Valvoline dramatically reduced the time managers spent creating weekly schedules from over two hours to just 15 minutes. This precision, down to 15-minute intervals, optimizes labor forecasts and generates significant savings, allowing managers to refocus on employees and customers. The mobile capabilities also empower Valvoline's 11,000 frontline workers, supporting the company's high-growth goals.
