Warehouse Management
Infor SCM Labor Management is an integrated warehouse and labor management system that provides real-time workforce performance feedback to help improve warehouse operations and reduce labor costs. Labor Management extends the capabilities of Infor SCM Warehouse Management to manage all aspects of labor in the warehouse, from planning to tracking and reporting. With the fully integrated Labor Management, operations can pinpoint unproductive time, such as idle time between tasks, meetings and repair work. The system can track direct activities, measuring users against expected standards, and each other, to prove and showcase good performance, while also identifying areas for improvement and corrective action. Labor Management provides real-time monitoring of performance feedback against established labor standards (via a user's radio frequency device, for example), enabling management to implement performance improvements dynamically. www.infor.com
