Workload management

Countless conversations, endless activity lists, constantly shifting goalposts. But getting it right can have a huge impact on everything from individual motivation to organisation performance, and even to student experience. You need to be able to:
  • Manage large amounts of information effectively in one place
  • Share your thoughts, compare your options, keep tabs on your progress
  • Respond easily to short-term changes in requirements
  • Optimise the quality of work through matching the organisations needs with individual capabilities and needs
  • Deliver effective and efficient allocation of work that meets internal and external standards
"The unique rules-based engine in WAMS means that we can easily create and manage the underlying calculations ourselves.  It deals with the complexities of our policy and the diversity of our workloads in a simple, user-friendly way, including a tailored approach to meeting each Faculty's needs.​"
