Vanillaplan - resource planning:
Well planned is half built

Multi-talent for constant changes

Project or resource view? You decide how you prefer to plan! Either you allocate staff and inventory to the projects - then you work with the project view. Or you can schedule the orders to personnel and inventory - then the resource view is the right choice. You can switch views with just one click - and benefit from the advantages of both.

The various filter functions are a special feature of Vanillaplan: They enable a targeted overview and directly show the free capacities of key personnel, vehicle fleet, project managers and much more. This allows you to manage and optimise your planning with foresight.

• You can quickly manage your constant changes with drag & drop or cut & paste

• With the red-green diagram of resource consumption, you can keep your personnel planning on track - reducing your risks

• Coloured numbers show you how busy your staff are and whether you have free capacity for a new job

‘Create my deployment plan - hex hex!’

The last baby boomers are about to retire, there is a shortage of young talent - and the shortage of skilled labour is getting worse. Delayed or unrealised projects can be the result.

AI-supported scheduling relieves the burden on experienced employees who create the weekly schedules. After all, scheduling also consists of routine work - and this can be automated.

One click - and Vanillaplan throws up suggestions for daily shifts for the week, which you can add to manually. As soon as the best solution has been saved, your colleagues are informed via the display board or mobile app. Ingenious, isn't it?

• While your competitors are still planning, you are already signing new contracts - because thanks to AI, you gain valuable time for your core tasks

• It's fun and you retain the best employees in your company

Welcome to forward-looking planning

Our customers swear by capacity planning! It gives you information about your operational capacity utilisation: you get answers as to whether a department is over- or underloaded and whether you need more orders or staff. This gives you greater security, control and a better night's sleep in the long term.

• More overview of all projects, their time & personnel requirements and resource consumption

• Always up-to-date: Vanillaplan automatically calculates the manpower requirements per week and project

• The project is moved with one click - and the impact on capacity utilisation is visible

Say goodbye to double bookings

Your employee is on a training course - and the customer calls because nobody turns up. Oops, planned incorrectly... embarrassing!

This will never happen to you again with Vanillaplan - because our absence plan has an appointment collision check. This makes it impossible to schedule a resource for two events at the same time.

• Coloured symbols, e.g. palm tree for holidays or pliers for repairs, make planning intuitive

• Regular absences - such as part-time work - are only scheduled once

• Public holidays or company holidays? Done for your whole team with just a few clicks!

No more late calls - with mobile app, display board and calendar link

In an industry with constant change, communication is key. At Vanillaplan, we believe that staying on the phone in the digital age is not productive - that's why we have three different communication tools for you and your team:

• Mobile app for on the go

• Display board for the company

• Link to your calendar

Our customers say: With digital employee communication, you save three minutes per day and per employee. Do the maths and you've already amortised Vanillaplan!
