FMSI, a leading workforce optimization solution provider for banks and credit unions, announced todayWestStar Bank has adopted FMSI’s Omnix Staff Scheduler™, Omnix Interactive Dashboard™ and Omnix Performance Analytics™ solutions. The $1 billion Texas State-based financial institution will use FMSI’s software to reduce staff downtime and improve efficiencies across its ten retail branch locations.
“Our previous employee scheduling model, at times, resulted in unnecessary amounts of downtime for our employees, caused by staffing our branches for unexpected spikes in traffic,” says Linda Hernandez, 1st VP Teller Operationsat WestStar Bank. “We knew there were significant efficiency gains to be made by better aligning our staff with fluctuations in traffic, but struggled to find an internal solution that would also avoid service disruptions. FMSI’s solution gave us the confidence we needed to move forward with a more progressive staffing approach, by supporting us with ongoing reporting highlighting exactly how our staffing levels should look like.”
FMSI’s Omnix Suite of Products™ addresses the concerns of today’s financial institutions: keeping down expenses while improving service levels and sales in the branches. Through the collection and then preparation of front-line staff interaction data, FMSI’s system quickly empowers management teams with easy-to-read and actionable business intelligence.
“In our previous efforts to improve our staffing efficiencies, we experienced some resistance from some of our branch employees,” adds Hernandez. “Now that we have concrete third-party information from FMSI, our staff will be much more receptive to improving our workforce optimization—a process that will be much easier with FMSI’s automated Omnix Staff Scheduler™ application.”
“Maintaining teller staffing at the ideal level to ensure customer satisfaction can sometimes be a very bank specific decision,” says W. Michael Scott, President/CEO of FMSI. "Without accurate information, most financial institutions are not equipped to make a proper evaluation. With more than 25 years of experience helping banks and credit unions improve the productivity of their staff, our unique solutions for measuring and forecasting transaction volumes regularly reveal areas for better service, more sales and increased productivity."
