New Labor Scheduling and Time & Attendance Solution Supports
22,000 Employees
NEW YORK--(Business Wire)--Tomax Corporation is pleased to announce the expansion of its
current relationship with Save Mart Supermarkets. Earlier last year,
Save Mart chose to implement Tomax's Workforce Management solution,
including labor forecasting and scheduling in 127 stores that were
acquired from Albertsons LLC. In December, the business decided to
purchase additional licenses to implement Tomax Workforce Management
in their remaining 125 Save Mart and Food Maxx bannered stores.

   The Workforce Management solution, a component of the Tomax
solution suite called Demand-Driven Retail Continuum, is used to
control labor costs and boost customer satisfaction by creating
accurate schedules to support all retail processes at the stores,
including customer service. In the United States, the Tomax Workforce
Management solution supports labor forecasting, scheduling and time
and attendance processes for more than 7,800 stores and 1.5 million
employees.

   Steve Gaines, Sr. Director of Retail Efficiencies at Save Mart,
said, "Save Mart has had a very successful relationship with Tomax
over the years and is looking forward to completing our
enterprise-wide implementation of Workforce Manager. Workforce Manager
is a key strategic step towards optimizing our planning, execution,
and measurement of labor efficiency and labor effectiveness."

   "We are delighted to expand our relationship with Save Mart. As a
result of twenty years of experience in retail labor management, Tomax
offers a robust, easy-to-use workforce management solution that
manages payroll costs while improving customer service, as well as
connecting the dots across people and processes to maximize
operational effectiveness," commented Tomax CEO Eric Olafson.
