The cost of eyeballing your staffing
Working out how much staff you need to cover a contract, on which shifts, with what relief pattern, and at what cost, is a manual exercise you redo whenever a condition changes: a 12-hour shift instead of 8, a public holiday, or a new clause. That variability can affect the proposal margin when assumptions remain hidden.
Hours in spreadsheets for every proposal.
Operational and labor rules that are difficult to review consistently.
Costs that are difficult to compare when assumptions change between scenarios.
From tender to proposal, in six steps
Upload the process or contract you want to cover: what service, where, when.
Define your coverage demand: how much staff you need, in which time slots, all seven days, including public holidays and night shifts.
Turnomix calculates a feasible mix of core and backup staff for the configured coverage and parameters.
Builds the shift schedule that covers demand, testing different strategies: relief, overtime, 8- or 12-hour shifts.
Models each scenario's cost with the labor parameters configured for the contract.
Delivers the staffing, shift, and cost breakdown, ready to support your tender bid.
Three reasons to ditch the spreadsheet
Explicit, reviewable assumptions
Every proposal uses an optimized calculation and reports cost within the configured scenarios and constraints, so the team can review its assumptions.
Configurable, reviewable rules
Working-hour limits, rest periods, and surcharges can be configured in the engine and reviewed for each operation before a scenario is used.
Scenario comparison
There's no single answer. Compare different shift strategies for the same contract and choose the one that best balances cost and operational risk.
