Logile, Inc., a pioneer of Real-Time Operational Planning and Execution Management Systems, announced that Golub Corporation, a premier grocery retailer in the Northeast, will be the launch customer for its Dynamic Labor Modeling, Labor Budgeting, Labor Projection and Work Planning, Real-time Performance Analytics, and Real-Time Execution Compliance Management solutions in all of their 116 Price Chopper supermarkets.
David Golub, Vice President of Store Operations for Golub Corporation, explained that, “Logile’s solution gives us a way to effectively utilize the engineered labor standards that we developed using H.B. Maynard’s StandardsPro for Retail application, benefitting us across our growing enterprise. We will use Logile’s solution to accurately model our labor, plan and schedule our key labor resources, to execute and comply with our established preferred methods. This will allow us to respond with speed and precision to the ever changing demands of retail.”
The application will provide the capability to model, plan, and analyze labor at multiple organizational levels and time dimensions using engineered labor standards supported through H.B. Maynard’s StandardsPro for Retail application. The application will utilize store and department specific metrics to model fixed and variable labor to maximize store productivity. Metrics such as store characteristics, department profiles, volume data, and earned adjustments will be used to provide detailed work and task planning, to deploy and manage labor, and to track and manage plan compliance. The Real-Time Performance Engine will support roll-up and drill down of key performance metrics across the enterprise and supports real-time plan vs. schedule vs. earned vs. actuals labor reporting across the organization.
David Golub added, “We agree with Logile’s unique vision that an engineered labor model is central to real-time labor management and execution.”
Greg Zeh, Vice President of Enterprise Business Systems at Golub Corporation, shared that, “Golub Corporation has a history of developing applications in-house because many off-the-shelf packages do not meet the business or technology needs of our growing enterprise suite. After an extensive evaluation of workforce and task management systems, we concluded that in order to meet our near and long-term application needs, compliment our work with H.B. Maynard’s’ StandardsPro for Retail and desire to select a business partner with vision and a proven track record, led us to select Logile as our Workforce and Execution Management solution provider.”
Purna Mishra, President and founder of Logile, stated, “We are thrilled and privileged to have the opportunity to work with the Golub Corporation as a launch customer for many of our Execution Management application modules. Their business and technology requirements and focus compliment those of our other customers.”
