Operating system for shop management

A system for planning, monitoring and analyzing working hours, productivity and costs in the retail chain.

System overview


Most retail chains have a large number of stores, employees and operational data, but without a single system that ties all that information into a meaningful whole.

The goal of this project was to build a central operating system that connects:

  • shift planning,

  • working time records,

  • employee productivity,

  • and real costs per facility.

The system enables the management to have a clear insight into the situation on the ground at all times and to make decisions based on data, not estimates.

Why it matters

In retail, labor costs and employee organization directly affect profitability.

Without a central system:

  • planning is manual,

  • the data is fragmented,

  • mistakes are noticed late,

  • and decisions are made based on feelings.

This system allows:

  • transparency,

  • cost control,

  • and realistic performance management by facilities.

Our approach

How we approached the problem

The project was started with a detailed analysis of real processes in shops:

Based on that, the complete system architecture was designed.

Key parts of the system include:

Results and effects

After implementing the system, the client received:

  • A single source of truth for all operational data

  • Reduction of administrative work

  • Better control of labor costs

  • A clearer picture of performance by actions

  • Faster decision-making at the management level

The system is used daily in real work and represents the basis for further analytical and optimization projects.

Tipična pitanja koja sistem rešava

  • Koliko nas zaista košta svaka radnja?

  • Koje smene su neefikasne?

  • Gde imamo višak ili manjak ljudi?

  • Kako se produktivnost menja po periodima?

  • Koje odluke imaju najveći finansijski efekat?
