One unified platform

All planning in one system

From the daily work plan to strategic staffing weeks ahead. Plaain builds, recalculates and simulates plans — openly integrated with the rest of your welfare technology.

Functionality

Selected features in Plaain

The core is the same — whether employees work at a fixed location or move between tasks. Two areas work together: planning & optimisation and platform & integration.

Planning & optimisation

Staffing planning

The right skills on the right tasks — from today to many weeks ahead.

Real-time planning

Re-plan every deviation — absence, no-shows, cancellations and urgent tasks.

Simulation

55 adjustable plan variables in plan scenarios — test changes without touching the active plan.

Route optimisation When driving

Optimal routes — using traffic data and weather forecasts for realistic travel times.

Fleet optimisation When driving

Vehicle use is optimised as a resource on a par with employees.

Platform & integration

Orchestration

Across all line-of-business systems — data and actions in one coordinated flow.

Welfare technology

Plaain is open and can integrate with other relevant welfare-technology solutions.

Tacit knowledge digitised

Knowledge about citizens and employees is made available to the whole team — not just in the planner's head.

Open API

All data is made available — free to build on and integrate.

All domains

The welfare areas + technical & environmental services — the same foundation across all.

55 adjustable plan variables

Plan scoring — your priorities steer the plan

Plaain builds work plans based on the parameters you weight highest — in the order you decide. Drag and drop: planner and manager decide for themselves what the plan should optimise for.

1

Allocation

How many visits and tasks are planned out across the employees.

2

Continuity

That the same employee — or the same group — visits the same citizen.

3

Economy

What the plan costs to carry out — in money, time and km.

4

Citizen service

The extent to which the plan takes citizens' wishes into account.

5

Employee satisfaction

The extent to which the plan takes employees' wishes into account.

In the long run: management information and data that turn planning into a steering tool.
How it works

Real-time planning — the planner fully in control

When absences and deviations hit: re-plan immediately, without losing control.

1

A deviation occurs

Sickness, an urgent task or a delay is registered immediately.

2

Plaain re-plans

Real-time suggestions that respect all configured rules and preferences.

3

The planner decides

Approve, reject or undo — every change can be rolled back.

4

Back to the line-of-business system

The plan is only sent back to the care system once the planner has approved it.

The re-planning is also a big plus for your solution versus others on the market.
