Labor Forecasting & Scheduling for Multi-Unit

Forecast sales by daypart from POS history and local signals, convert to labor demand by role, generate schedules that respect predictive-scheduling law, and alert managers before overtime happens instead of after payroll runs.

From $42,000
Timeline
6–9 weeks
Team
U.S. senior engineers, ET hours

// how we deliver

From signature to production

The same delivery rhythm on every engagement. You always know what shipped last week and what ships next.

  1. Week 0

    Scope lock

    Two working sessions with your team. We write the spec, the acceptance criteria, and the integration list, then fix the price against it.

  2. Weeks 1-2

    Spine first

    Data model, auth, environments, CI, and the riskiest integration go in before any screen is polished. You see it running in staging.

  3. Mid-build

    Weekly demo

    Working software every Friday, on your staging environment. Scope changes get priced in the same call, never discovered at the end.

  4. Go-live

    Handover that holds

    Runbooks, monitoring, test suite, and a recorded walkthrough for your engineers. You own the repo and the accounts from day one.

// questions buyers ask

Before you book a call

Straight answers on price, timeline, ownership, and who writes the code. If your question is not here, ask it on the call — we answer it the same way.

Scope labor forecasting & scheduling for multi-unit
What does labor forecasting & scheduling for multi-unit cost?

From $42,000. The price is fixed against a written scope after a two-session discovery, so the number you approve is the number you pay. Typical delivery runs 6–9 weeks.

How long does it take to go live?

6–9 weeks from scope lock to production for the scope listed on this page. You see working software in your staging environment every week, starting in week two.

What does it integrate with?

Out of the box we wire Toast, Square, 7shifts, ADP and Snowflake. Anything with an API or a file drop can be added during scope lock.

Who actually builds it?

Senior U.S.-based engineers on Eastern-time hours. No offshore handoff, no rotating junior bench. The people on your kickoff call are the people writing the code.

Do we own the code?

Yes. Your repo, your cloud accounts, your data — from the first commit. We hand over runbooks, tests, monitoring, and a recorded walkthrough so your team can take it forward without us.

Can this start smaller than the full scope?

Usually. We can carve a first slice that proves the hardest part of labor forecasting & scheduling for multi-unit in a few weeks, then sequence the rest once it is running in production.
