KIKO Milano chooses Quinyx for workforce management
KIKO Milano is an Italian professional cosmetics brand that features a range of cutting-edge makeup, face and body treatments. The brand now has 900 points of sale across 20 countries around the world. Kega, implementation partner of Quinyx in the Benelux, implemented the Workforce Management (WFM) app of Quinyx at KIKO Milano.
The challenges for KIKO Milano
A lot of manual work, across numerous systems, was necessary to create schedules. Report planning, forecasting, and budgeting were very time-consuming for managers. For these reasons, KIKO Milano started looking for a new solution, to allow for more efficient workforce management.
3 issues solved by Quinyx
- Communication
- Schedule overview, time balance, available shifts
- Lack of visibility for managers and colleagues, absence of team overview
“We know efficacy and innovation are two components that are important for KIKO Milano and we are happy to provide them with what they need to progress their forecasting, optimise their scheduling and improve their communication. We are looking forward to working together with our partner Kega to support KIKO Milano in enhancing their processes while focusing on their own people.”
