The partnership between ClickSoftware and SAP offers customers robust workforce management and mobility solutions through the SAP Workforce Scheduling and Optimization application by ClickSoftware.  The list of global companies that depend on SAP Workforce Scheduling and Optimization to manage growing workforces has been steadily expanding across North America and Europe, with a recent surge of new customers in Russia and South Africa, and in verticals including government and public sector, and oil and gas.

Serco, the international service company, recently implemented SAP Workforce Scheduling and Optimization in multiple business units to automate employee rostering and shift scheduling, while also providing advanced forecasting. The solution has become Serco's global platform for staff deployment to match shifts with customer demand. SAP Workforce Scheduling and Optimization integrates with Serco's Global implementation of the SAP ERP Human Capital Management (SAP ERP HCM) solution, proving a single system that runs on real-time data. This has provided Serco with increased visibility and planning around the process of rostering staff optimally and efficiently, allowing it to better meet goals of becoming the world's greatest service company.
