Nétive Workforce Management Software

Data-driven workforce planning made simple

Organisations with extensive external hiring face a familiar challenge: how do you maintain control over a growing flexible workforce and ensure the right people are in the right place at the right time? Workforce management software provides the answer. With a powerful tool like the Nétive VMS platform, you can automate and streamline your entire hiring process. The result? Greater transparency, higher efficiency, and a data-driven approach to workforce planning. Nétive’s all-in-one platform empowers organisations to manage external hiring as effectively as their internal workforce—leading to better cost control, faster onboarding of top talent, and full compliance with laws and regulations.

What is WFM Software?

WFM stands for Workforce Management software: a system that enables you to plan and manage your workforce effectively. In essence, a WFM tool provides a clear answer to the question: “Who does what, when, and at what cost?”

At Nétive, the focus is specifically on managing external staffing. The system integrates job requisitions, supplier selection, contract management, time tracking, and invoicing—all driven by data. While traditional WFM systems mainly deal with internal scheduling and traffic management, Nétive VMS supports the strategic deployment of contingent labour.

For organisations with significant external staffing needs, this is essential. It allows you to manage both permanent and flexible workers effectively and to make faster, data-informed decisions in a tight labour market. Nétive’s VMS delivers transparency, efficiency, and a future-proof approach to workforce planning.

Key Features of a Modern Hiring & Planning Tool

A modern workforce management tool like Nétive VMS offers:

• Workforce forecasting: Anticipate future hiring needs based on historical data and trends. For example: how many service employees will you need next month.
• Capacity management: Gain insights into available capacity (both permanent and flexible) with smart dashboards for allocation and throughput.
• Contract and supplier management: Complete control over contract creation, supplier performance, and compliance.
• Employee portal: An intuitive environment where professionals manage their data, hours, and availability.
• Reporting & analytics: Real-time dashboards and self-service reporting options for all stakeholders.

Functions such as traffic management and shift-level scheduling (e.g., by collective labour agreements or day plans) fall outside the scope of Nétive itself but can be integrated via connections with specialised WFM solutions.
