Bart Aarsen - R&R Workforce Management
R&R WFM develops software and provides additional services and hardware for workforce management (WFM). With these WFM systems, R&R helps companies in food retail in particular, to schedule employees smartly and the software gives users insight into productivity and wage costs. In the Netherlands, with 1,600 stores, they are the market leader in workforce management for the large supermarkets: in terms of growth in the coming years, R&R is looking across the border toward our eastern and southern neighbours, among others.
To make the hardware of the tracking clocks suitable for application in Germany, the product had to meet the different certification requirements of the German market. This required several modifications to the existing router, master clock and departmental clock, with R&R WFM turning to Cimar in 2019 for a redesign of the existing design. Through reverse engineering, the existing system was redesigned and is now approved for use in Germany.
Director Bart Aarsen is very satisfied with the flexibility and creativity of Cimar Electronics. R&R WFM was looking for a professional and reliable party for the production of this time tracking system. Cimar's flexible and helpful attitude during the development and production process appealed to them greatly. In particular, he is very appreciative of the fact that by taking a creative and pragmatic approach, Cimar is able to continue to deliver, even as the supply of hardware components worldwide is under enormous pressure.
