Work Force Planning window

The Work Force Planning (WFP) module provides various graphical, spatial, report “views” of your live working operations, primarily focusing on your work force, work operations and future staffing needs.  

The opening window provides a live graphic of your township, district, zone or precinct (these are user configurable) road/street surface type.  

The Projects Forecast report, with a user entered (future) beginning starting date provides a (live data) look at manhours needed for (future) estimated projects.     This report provides information on whether to utiize your current work force, contract out the work, or, add staff, if needed, for these future projects.   Data is developed in the Project Estimator module (Main Menu -> Project Estimator button).

The Overtime Worked report provides a (live data) look at overtime hours and skills utilized, which provides a decision point in future work force planning and the skills previously utilized.   Generally, looking at live overtime hours worked, is a good benchmark as to future staffing requirements (and the skills neede to fulfill future operational needs).

The Work by Task report provides a (live data) look at the work performed and they type of work skills utilized.   This report is broken out by your work task(s) and date range, depending on what work tasks you want to analyze.   Detail is provided on Regular and Overtime hours worked, Labor, Material and Equipment Costs, and, a breakout of (approximate) number of discrete work tasks performed, with their average cost by discrete work task.   Because the report is date and task selectable, it can provide very specific live data on any work operation preformed.

Graphs may be reconfigured, by the users, by pointing at a graph and right-click your mouse.   Options provided enable you to Zoom out Zoom in, save graph as a bitmap (.BMP) or portable network graphics (.PNG) file, to incorporate into other word processing documents, etc., print a hard-copy on your printer, or, select other graph types (Pareto, Bar, Line).

The graph, Distric Road/Street Mileage – By Surface Type provides a comparative (live data) look at road/street surface miles in each spatial area of your city or county.

The graph, Hours Worked, provides a (live data) look at regular and overtime hours worked in the current Fiscal Year (selected when the module first opens) or any Fiscal Year may be analyzed by using the field above button – then clicking button.

Work Tasks: Graph is a Pareto graph by District (Township, Precinct, Zone, etc.) that shows relative cost comparisons of your work tasks performed.

Work Tasks: Spatial provides a GIS oriented look at user selectable tasks by areas (Townships, Districts, Precincts, etc.).   In GIS click on MAPS -> and selecting a different type of map, different data points, etc.
