Challenges Faced by Logistics Companies in Reliable Temporary Staffing Solutions

Logistics and warehousing businesses often struggle with filling open shifts with qualified, reliable workers in a timely manner. Current manual or fragmented staffing processes lead to inefficiencies, delayed operations, and difficulty in monitoring workforce performance, especially when managing irregular or short-term shifts. There is a need for a streamlined, transparent platform that connects employers with thoroughly vetted workers, offers flexible scheduling, and provides comprehensive workforce management tools.

About the Client

A mid-sized logistics company seeking to optimize staffing levels in warehouses, distribution centers, and event facilities through a digital platform that connects them with vetted, flexible workers.

Goals for an Enhanced Workforce Matching and Management Platform

  • Develop a digital platform that effectively connects logistics companies to a pool of vetted, experienced light industrial workers for flexible shifts, achieving a target fill rate of over 98%.
  • Create intuitive applications for employers and workers that simplify shift posting, signing up, tracking hours, and managing the workforce.
  • Implement comprehensive workforce analytics and invoicing features to streamline HR processes.
  • Ensure high system availability, scalability, and security to support rapid growth and sensitive data management.

  • Shift creation, editing, and assignment with support for varied durations from days to weeks
  • Real-time notifications for shift updates and upcoming work
  • Worker shift browsing, sign-up, and monitoring hours worked with accuracy
  • Employment and shift analytics dashboard for employers
  • Invoice viewing and processing interface
  • Design system with consistent visual components, variants, and guidelines for future scalability
