Learn to Staff for Productivity

The single biggest reason for low designer productivity is scheduling too many design hours each day, i.e. staffing too high. Many shops have one to two more designers than they need.

That’s the argument Paul Goodman, CPA, PFCI, puts forward in this month’s issue of Floral Management. Goodman argues that deciding how many design hours to schedule each day requires knowledge of two items: design volume per day and output per designer per hour.

Simple, right? While getting to those numbers (and the ultimate goal of a highly efficient design room) can be pretty straightforward, few shops are doing the job right. Find out how you can improve efficiency, productivity and profitability through staffing in the March issue.
