Challenge
Planning workforce resources efficiently is a decisive success factor for production at Porsche. Given the complexity of the requirements – short-notice changes, planning across plants and communication with the works council – a high degree of accuracy and flexibility was essential. Traditional planning tools reached their limits and led to more time spent and more planning errors.
Solution
Enko Software GmbH developed the »Workforce Scheduling« software for Porsche – a tailor-made tool that optimizes the planning of staffing requirements and is cut to the company's specific needs.
The software provides day-accurate, end-to-end planning, eliminates planning errors and makes requirements easier to present. That not only makes planning more efficient, it also makes coordination with the works council more transparent.

With the introduction of Workforce Scheduling, Porsche achieved impressive results:
- 30% lower planning costs
- Fewer planning errors
- Greater efficiency and transparency in production planning
