Barona is a Finnish service company that employs over 30,000 workers annually across more than ten industries. Its parent company, Bravedo, encompasses over 30 service and technology companies in 11 different countries.
Since 2019, Barona has used the Quinyx workforce management system supporting around 2,200 employees and 120 shift planners across the company's four business units.
Improved employee experience
One of Quinyx's key features is its user-friendliness.
"Quinyx is an easy-to-use and intuitive solution. I can quickly check the mobile app to see the time, location, and tasks scheduled for the day," says Eeva Tolonen, a picker at Barona’s Avialogis.
"With a high number of employees, the filtering options are incredibly valuable in my role. The shift schedule allows us to filter employees by criteria such as skills," adds Joni Kiuru, a resource planner at Avialogis.
Open APIs enable data-driven operations
Beyond its ease of use, another major advantage of Quinyx is its open APIs.
"Quinyx has excellent APIs that enable seamless data integration. These APIs allow us to automate tasks and significantly reduce manual work," explains Niklas Heikkinen, a Product Owner at Barona.
Time savings and increased efficiency
The implementation of Quinyx has reduced the time spent on shift planning at Barona by an average of 15% per week.
Efficiency has also seen a substantial boost. With Quinyx, Barona has achieved over 20% better optimization of employees' time, resulting in improved resource management and higher employee satisfaction.
A rewarding collaboration with Quinyx
The partnership between Barona and Quinyx has been exceptionally successful, leading to a significant increase in job satisfaction.
As a growing company, it's crucial for Barona to have a system partner that not only supports its growth but also aligns with its goal of becoming a leading technology company.
"For us, having a strong WFM partner is absolutely essential. Quinyx is the best system for our needs," Niklas concludes.
