Often times, teams may struggle with real-time resource visibility, leading to scheduling inefficiencies, miscommunications, and poor utilization of labor, ultimately increasing project delays and administrative burden.
Raken resource scheduling empowers your organization with a dedicated tool for managing one-off or recurring shifts of employees. Once a schedule has been created, you and your employees gain a real-time calendar view and email & SMS notifications related to shift assignment.
New Features & Enhanced Capabilities
We’ve expanded our scheduling suite to help you bridge the gap between planning and production.
Labor Hours Report
Overview: Compare scheduled vs. actual labor hours tracked in a comprehensive report.
Benefits: Quickly identify mismatches between scheduled shifts and actual hours worked (based on time entered in Raken). This helps you spot attendance issues or budget overruns before they become problems.
Audience: Customers utilizing both Scheduling and Time cards.
Assigning Equipment & Materials to Shifts
Overview: You can now track materials and equipment directly within a specific shift.
Benefits: Ensure the right items are at the right place at the right time. By tracking these within the shift, you avoid double-scheduling expensive equipment and ensure crews have the materials needed to start on time.
Audience: Customers with Scheduling and Production Tracking needs.
Setting Up Resource Schedules

Once a schedule is created, you can just as easily edit and adjust details as needed. All updates and changes are sent out to employees in real time.
