Solutions
Human engineering applied to real operational challenges.
Understand exposure. Improve work organisation. Support safer decisions.
GILBRETH X combines human factors engineering, sleep science and operational data analysis to help organisations with shift-based work manage staffing, safety and recovery challenges. Our approach is modular: it can start with an assessment and progress to schedule redesign and fatigue management measures.
Three solutions. One integrated approach.
01 — Shift schedule assessment and fatigue exposure analysis
Before making changes, we need to understand the current situation. We assess planned and actual working schedules: night shifts, sequences, shift durations, intervals, accumulated hours and recorded changes. The analysis takes operational constraints into account and identifies patterns that warrant attention.
What you receive: a technical report, verifiable indicators, priorities and recommendations.
02 — Shift schedule redesign and optimisation
Improve schedules without compromising operations. We develop and compare alternatives, considering minimum staffing, required skills, applicable rules, available resources and recovery opportunities. Proposals are discussed and approved before any implementation.
What you receive: alternative schedule configurations, a comparative analysis and a substantiated operational proposal.
03 — Fatigue risk management and mitigation
From analysis to preventive action. We help define organisational measures, procedures, training and monitoring indicators tailored to high-demand periods and the organisation’s responsibilities.
What you receive: a mitigation plan setting out priorities, responsibilities and monitoring arrangements.
Getting started does not require replacing your scheduling software
We can work with data exported from existing systems, provided their format and quality support analysis. Our work uses a specialised methodology and supporting technical tools, without requiring a replacement scheduling system.
Where should you start?
An introductory meeting helps us understand the size of the operation, the information available and the most suitable solution. A project can focus on a single site or team.
