RedPrairie Corporation, a consumer-driven optimisation company, has announced that its Workforce Management (WFM) and Execution Management solutions received a Strong Positive rating in Gartners MarketScope for Retail Time and Labour Applications 2008 report. RedPrairie was one of 12 vendors evaluated in the report, and received the highest possible rating.
Time and labour applications are part of RedPrairies unified and broadly applicable Workforce Management (WFM) application suite designed for use across industries. The suite offers increased productivity and visibility into workforce operations, including time and attendance, business forecasting, engineered labour standards, employee scheduling, workforce demand planning, dashboards with configurable alerts, and computer-based training. The system differs from most standard management applications in its ability to serve the distinctive qualities of a multitude of organisations whether based in retail, hospitality, food service, distribution, or manufacturing.
In addition, RedPrairies Retail User Group advises development of new products, giving customers a voice in influencing each applications advancement. Every RedPrairie client is invited to participate.
We are pleased to receive such a positive rating from a well-respected industry research leader, said RedPrairie CEO Mike Mayoras. We strive to deliver value for our customers and we believe Gartners insights help validate our strategy and commitment to the markets we serve.
