In future, OBI, the leading DIY player in Europe, will be relying on the ATOSS Retail Solution. As part of its digitization strategy, OBI has opted to implement the ATOSS workforce management solution.
ATOSS, the leading provider of technology and consulting solutions for digital workforce management, has won a new customer in bringing OBI on board. With immediate effect, the DIY expert will be using the ATOSS Retail Solution. The modular enterprise solution will optimize and standardize the processes revolving around time recording, working time management, self services and workforce scheduling. The aim is to offer OBI customers – who number more than 200 million every year – even better services and enable several thousand employees to design and organize their working time in an innovative manner.
ATOSS won over OBI’s management thanks to the high functionality of the ATOSS Retail Solution, its many years of retail expertise and extensive experience in international rollouts. In deploying the enterprise solution, OBI aims to realize customer-driven, yet employee friendly workforce scheduling in the retail space. Moreover, the in-house appointment booking system will also be integrated. This will enable the company to determine precisely how many employees with what qualifications will be required for consulting appointments booked in advance. Employees will be included in working time management processes via Staff Center mobile and in future will enjoy greater scope in organizing their personal working time.
After linking up more than 200 stores in Germany, the rollout for Austria is on the agenda for 2024. Subsequently, the ATOSS Retail Solution will be incrementally introduced in additional OBI countries. All country-specific laws and regulations will be mapped, while requirements relevant to the particular company are factored in accordingly. Once the strategic digitization project is wrapped up, the working times of several thousand employees will be planned and managed with ATOSS Workforce Management – across a total of nine European countries.
