Client Need
The client required industry expertise to design and create a cross-platform end-to-end labor workforce management tool. The application needed to organize, schedule, and communicate with contingent, project-based mobile talent and automatically fulfill roles based on the talent’s registration profile.
Product Challenges
A major challenge was designing a database and UI with pre-defined and dynamic event roles, creating corresponding registration and communication templates, and matching talent to those roles. Additional challenges were rate calculations with multiple variables, load balancing, and application performance.
The delaPlex Solution
delaPlex quickly identified the business requirements to deliver a robust workforce management solution built with the latest technology. The new cloud-based platform and mobile app addresses the unique challenges faced by companies hiring independent workers for short-term engagements. It also streamlines labor workflow by managing on-demand and on-the-go workforce. The app accommodates state-by-state rates, automated customer and talent registration and communications, and crew management details.
