Are you calling in too many drivers, scheduling drivers too early or too late, and trying to effectively communicate the call-in schedule in a timely manner? You too are facing an age-old problem that has been an all-too-costly venture for many construction material producers. Fortunately, the Integra Resource Management module provides a far better solution to greatly simplify this process and to manage your driver payroll to the actual order demand. This module is a fully integrated resource scheduling and management tool.
By automatically analyzing the pending orders for any day and then automatically reviewing such factors as the driver activity schedule (planned time off, illness, etc.), plant seniority lists, plant restrictions or preferences, and hours of service activity, Integra Resource Management can create a master call-in schedule in seconds on a plant-by-plant basis. The scheduler can then layer in assumptions for last minute order additions or deletions due to weather, pending projects, etc. and create an accurate and cost effective schedule with minimal effort. Once the schedule has been created, it can optionally be posted to ScheduleCom OnDemand, our web-hosted voice system where drivers can call a toll-free number to obtain their starting times and locations. Driver call-in times are recorded for subsequent analysis by dispatchers to ensure that drivers have checked their schedule.
