Customer says:
” Region Hovedstaden includes all hospitals in Copenhagen, capitol of Denmark. Two thousands schedulers are making
shift plans for the entire staff - except doctors - amounting to 42.000 employees. In addition to this, PDC StaffPlan
calculates salary for 130.000 people a year.
We have been using PDC StaffPlan since 1999. We appreciate constantly the stability of the system as well as the
innovation projects and the developing of the software according to the needs of the growing number of staff and
requirements. By implementing PDC StaffPlan we have reduced the time we used for making rosters and our employees
are more satisfied now that the planners are able on the fly to see if vacation can be granted. Last but not least Prolog
Development Center was chosen as we needed a short and fast implementation. A choice that has proven right. “
