What is Athena and where does it fit?

Operations planning teams manage hundreds of employees, in different labour pools, on different rotas, and with different skillsets. Planning teams must coordinate the schedules to meet the unpredictable and often last-minute shifts in demand while guaranteeing that each employee completes their necessary hours and receives a fair schedule. 

Traditional Human Capital Management Systems (HCMs) fail to provide scheduling solutions that can handle the complexity of operations management. 

Operations teams therefore rely on Excel for workforce scheduling 

Athena provides industry specific solutions for operations scheduling. An integrated scheduling tool, skills management, timesheets, and employee app with industry specific interfaces and operational APIs making operations scheduling easy. Digitalising scheduling makes workforce planning easy, creates more efficient schedules and simplifies communication across a port’s operation.
