PGPlanning is a work schedule generator 100% online. In the cloud.

You’ll only need a browser, nothing more. Plus, we’ll explain how it works:
Its innovative calculation engine applies the latest techniques and advances in algorithmic research. Therefore, it manages to find the best possible solutions to your problem. Thus, it makes use of multiple algorithms that optimize the search taking into account all your conditions. Due to its innovative concept, it was supported and funded by the CDTI as an innovative project. European accelerators of innovative projects like Soul-FI also trusted us.

1. The Planner

First, all input data is collected to generate schedules.

It allows you to input the needs, specificities, rules, and constraints of your company:

  • Staff coverage needs.
  • Work calendar: holidays, weekends.
  • Employees: vacations, days off, capabilities, skills.
  • Locations.

2. The Calculation Engine or Schedule Calculator

Secondly, the schedules generator analyzes, searches for, and optimizes different solutions. To do this, it weighs all the variables and their priority to offer solutions.

  • Conjugates all the variables of the planner.
  • Find the best possible solutions automatically.
  • Optimizes the results to the limit.

The PGPlanning engine uses complex algorithms, based on NP-Complete mathematical problems. Therefore, it analyzes the solutions within the possible solution space, and optimizes them to offer the best possible results. Additionally, don’t forget about our quadrant simulators. You can find more information here.

3. Obtained Solutions and Schedules

The schedules calculation engine analyzes and optimizes the problem. In this way, it displays possible solutions for analysis and evaluation. As a result, once the one we are interested in is selected, we will have our annual schedules ready to work with.

  • Visualize the solutions found.
  • Exports in different formats.
  • Filters the results as you need: date, employees, locations, skills.
