Real-Time Labor Management for Infios Environments

Infios provides labor management capabilities as part of its broader supply chain solutions, but most operations still rely on historical reporting to understand performance. Takt extends Infios by transforming execution data into real-time labor intelligence, enabling teams to manage performance as work is happening.

By integrating with Infios WMS, automation systems, and timekeeping data, Takt delivers a live view of labor performance across the operation. Supervisors can identify performance gaps immediately, rebalance labor mid-shift, and take action to maintain throughput and service levels. This shift from reactive reporting to real-time control directly reduces labor cost per unit and improves operational consistency.

Move Faster Than Traditional LMS Deployments

Traditional labor management implementations, including Infios environments, often require significant upfront configuration, engineering effort, and ongoing services to maintain standards.

Takt is designed for speed and flexibility. Teams can configure engineered labor standards, travel mapping, and distance calculations in hours instead of months. As processes evolve, standards can be updated quickly without relying on external consultants.

This allows operations to continuously improve instead of being locked into static configurations that lag behind real-world conditions.

Multi-System Integration Without Heavy IT Dependency

Warehouse operations rarely run on a single system. Labor performance depends on data from WMS, warehouse execution systems, automation platforms, and time clocks.

Takt’s Feed Engine enables fast integration across Infios and surrounding systems without complex development or expensive professional services. Data can be ingested, transformed, and categorized quickly, giving teams a unified and accurate view of labor activity.

This multi-system approach ensures that decisions are based on complete data, improving accuracy and enabling better operational control.

Capture Indirect Work and Hidden Labor Costs

Even with Infios labor management, indirect work such as kitting, VAS, staging, and waiting for work is often underreported or inconsistently tracked.

Takt’s Virtual Kiosk provides a simple way for operators to log these activities in real time. This ensures all labor is captured and aligned to engineered standards, eliminating blind spots in utilization.

With full visibility, teams can identify indirect labor creep, reduce time off task, and make adjustments that protect margin and improve efficiency.

Turn Data into Immediate Operational Gains

Takt converts Infios data into real-time performance metrics at the employee, function, and shift level. Supervisors can see exactly where performance is falling behind and take action before it impacts output.

Built-in observations and coaching tools enable targeted interventions during the shift. Managers can address performance issues at the source, reinforce best practices, and improve consistency across the workforce.

This leads to higher units per hour, reduced variability, and measurable improvements in throughput without increasing labor.

Drive Engagement with TaktTV and Gamification

Labor performance improves when operators can see how they are performing in real time. Takt enhances Infios environments with TaktTV and embedded gamification, making performance visible and actionable.

Employees can track progress against goals throughout the shift, with competitions based on real operational metrics. This increases accountability and motivation, leading to improved attendance, reduced idle time, and sustained productivity gains.

Labor Planning That Reflects Real Performance

Takt connects Infios execution data directly to labor planning, enabling teams to build plans based on actual performance and demand variability.

Operations can model different scenarios, adjust performance assumptions, and generate plans down to the standard level. These plans translate into clear execution targets, improving alignment between planning and operations.

The outcome is more accurate staffing, reduced reliance on overtime, and improved labor cost predictability.

A More Agile Approach to Labor Management

Infios delivers foundational labor management capabilities, but Takt provides a faster, more adaptable approach built for modern warehouse operations.

With rapid deployment, easy configuration, and real-time visibility, Takt enables operations teams to focus on improving performance instead of managing complex systems. There is no dependency on long implementation cycles or ongoing services.

For 3PLs and enterprise operators, this means faster time to value, continuous improvement, and a clear advantage in controlling labor cost while maintaining high service levels.
