UNIPET Inc. (Headquarters: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Susumu Komiya), which provides the booking management system 'UNIPET' for pet grooming salons, has released the second phase of its new features, 'Pitatto Bungyo' (Perfect Division of Labor), which automates the role division and human resource allocation of groomers.
This feature automatically determines 'who will perform, up to what point, and in what order' the moment a booking is made, eliminating the need for adjustment work regarding personnel placement.
■ Background | The problem of 'Getting bookings but unable to process them'
For many years in the pet grooming salon industry, there has been a structural problem of 'getting bookings but unable to process them'.
- Unable to fully utilize staff who can only shampoo
- Turning away bookings because staff cannot perform haircuts
- Tasks concentrating heavily on veteran staff
- Idle times occurring due to gaps in skill levels
As a result, potential sales that could have been captured are lost.
Furthermore, because the premise relies on 'groomers who can complete the process alone',
- It is difficult to hire inexperienced personnel
- Impossible to build a division-of-labor type organization
These challenges persist. 'Pitatto Bungyo' was developed to change this structure.
■ What is Pitatto Bungyo? | A system that automatically determines staff allocation simultaneously with the booking.
Are you feeling the burden of adjusting bookings via phone or LINE?
- Want to take bookings, but only limited people can do the job
- It's hard to think about who to assign tasks to every single time
With 'Pitatto Bungyo', the assignment is automatically decided the moment a booking comes in.
👉 Automates even 'who does it, up to what point, and in what order'
👉 Bookings are established based on 'Dog breed x Individual dog x Skill level'
■ Features | A system where division of labor is completed the moment a booking is made
- Automatically designs the division of labor for the first and second halves
- Allocation and time adjustment according to the groomer's skill level
- Can integrate even shampoo-only staff into the schedule
■ Automatic split booking for first/second halves
Automatically divides the grooming of one dog
Example:
First 30 minutes: Shampoo (Bather)
Latter 90 minutes: Haircut (Veteran)
The optimal combination is automatically assigned at the time of booking.
■ 4-level groomer rank settings
Designs manageable grooming sessions according to skill levels
- Booking control by Dog breed x Individual dog x Skill level
- Flexible settings available such as no haircuts, shampoo only, etc.
■ Time correction based on assigned staff rank
Automatically adjusts the treatment time depending on 'who is in charge'
- Veteran: Standard time
- Mid-level/Novice: Automatically adds extra time
This feature automatically determines 'who will perform, up to what point, and in what order' the moment a booking is made, eliminating the need for adjustment work regarding personnel placement.
