Smart Scheduling

AI demand forecasting using sales data, bookings, weather, public holidays and event type. Predicts headcount per role at 15-min intervals. WTD, AWR, break rules and fatigue management built into auto roster generation — prevents violations before they happen.

Humanforce — Compliance built in, not bolted on
Ubeya — Template-driven, flags issues after the fact

Humanforce Talent

Native talent pools, 6M+ profiles, integrated ATS. Trace every candidate from recruitment source through to match-day attendance and no-show rates. Proves which channel delivers reliable staff and redirects spend accordingly — no spreadsheet blending required.

Humanforce — Source-to-shift ROI, natively
Ubeya — No ATS, relies on Talent Funnel integration

HR Onboarding

Automated workflows, RTW verification, HMRC declarations, contracts and compliance checks. Cuts offer-to-first-shift from weeks to days. The compliance hard gate that sits in the gap between Talent Funnel accepting a candidate and Ubeya rostering them for a shift.

Humanforce — Compliance gate before first roster
Ubeya — Basic form collection, no employee lifecycle

Ubeya will schedule your staff. We will predict your demand, tell you how many people you need in each area at each point in the day, generate the roster for you, and then measure whether the actual deployment matched the forecast. That is the difference between a scheduling tool and a workforce intelligence platform. Which problem are you actually trying to solve?

Which problem are you actually solving?

Built for Venue Operators

Every segment has a different demand problem. We solve all of them.

Smart Scheduling ingests segment-specific data — weather, opposition, event type, bookings — to generate demand curves unique to each venue type.

Premier League clubs

Match day staffing driven by opposition, time, weather and competition round

AI predicts headcount by area — hospitality, concessions, security — at 15-minute intervals. First draft roster generated automatically. Measurable cost savings from day one versus template rostering.

Horse racing

Extreme peaks on race days, near zero in between

Forecast demand using bookings data and historical attendance. Auto generate shifts across all service areas. Compare cost vs service optimised rosters before publishing to your casual workforce.

Cricket grounds

Test match attendance varies wildly. Weather dependency is extreme.

Weather correlation built into the advanced model. System adjusts headcount predictions based on weather forecasts and match day factors — eliminating the over-staffing waste of rain days.

Concert & event arenas

Every event has a completely different demand profile

Ingest event type data alongside capacity and bookings. Build event-specific demand profiles that improve with every event. A Taylor Swift concert and a darts championship are not the same roster.

Switching is simpler than you think

Our team has worked alongside Ubeya environments — adding capability without disrupting the operation or the roster.

STEP 1

Discovery

Audit your current setup

We map your Ubeya configuration, Talent Funnel integration points, compliance gaps, and identify exactly where the handoff risk lives between your systems.

STEP 2

Land

Add without displacing

Onboarding and Talent go live alongside your existing stack. No migration risk, no dual-running disruption. Immediate value from day one — closing the compliance gap.

STEP 3

Expand

Consolidate at renewal

Once your people data lives in Humanforce, Smart Scheduling is the natural next conversation — and the switching maths at Ubeya renewal have changed in your favour.

Built for the operation Ubeya can’t handle.
