March 15th 2022 - The fashion retail company CBR Fashion Group with its brands Street One und CECIL has chosen Quinyx' Workforce Management solution, to manage the schedules of its 600 employees in 120 company-owned retail stores in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands and Italy.
"With the introduction of the Quinyx software, our employees can now access the app from anywhere and are no longer tied to the checkout. Thanks to the cloud-based application and the modules for AI, we see ourselves well positioned here in the future," says Daniel Krüger, IT Procurement Manager at CBR Fashion Group.
The project is currently in the implementation phase and is scheduled to be fully rolled out on April 1, 2022. The easy-to-use platform, which is tailored for mobile devices, can be widely used among employees right from the start. Thus, CBR can expect positive results once Quinyx is fully rolled out. The cloud-based setup also optimizes integration with existing systems, such as internal HR systems.
The following functionalities are going to be used at CBR:- Duty scheduling
- Time management (absence management, employee clocking in and out)
To enable CBR to generate accurate forecasts, Quinyx' AI-driven forecasting module will also be used (strategic planning) once the implementation phase has finished. Quinyx offers the flexibility and adaptability to respond to CBR's needs and provide targeted appropriate modules.
"Quinyx' Train the Trainer approach was new for me, in context of the software implementation. All questions that came up have been solved collaboratively. With every query, our understanding of the Quinyx logic grew. Conclusion: It worked!", says Michaela Grüßing, IT Project Manager at CBR Fashion Group.
Marcus Winkler, project manager and Quinyx expert, adds about the collaboration:
"A key milestone of the implementation was to enable the CBR organization to train and administer the Quinyx system autonomously. This means that when changes occur, the company is able to implement them independently in the system and thus ultimately operate holistic change management on its own responsibility. The Quinyx DNA supports independent (learning) through a cooperative partnership - I am personally pleased that CBR has recognized this added value and adapted it for itself, and I wish them a lot of fun working with Quinyx."
We welcome CBR to the Quinyx family!
