About the Company

Domino’s Pizza is one of the largest global brands in pizza delivery, operating in over 90 countries worldwide, including Ukraine. The company's call center plays a crucial role in its operations, handling phone calls, online orders, and chats.

The Domino’s Pizza call center processes hundreds of orders daily, ensuring fast and high-quality customer service. The team consists of dozens of operators, who communicate with customers and support the delivery team.

Challenges Faced by the Call Center

1. Complex Shift Planning

  • Operators work in rotating shifts, requiring flexible scheduling.
  • The schedule needed to consider peak hours (evenings, weekends, and holidays) when order volumes significantly increase.
  • Frequent shift swap requests from employees created an additional workload for managers.

2. Lack of Automated Workforce Tracking

  • Managers struggled to track lateness and deviations from the schedule.
  • There was no unified system to record actual working hours and avoid disputes.

3. Errors in Calculating Worked Hours

  • Manual timekeeping led to errors in payroll calculations, sometimes resulting in overpayments or underpayments.
  • Operators forgot to clock in or out, making it difficult to generate accurate reports.

4. Managing Breaks Effectively

  • It was crucial to distribute breaks efficiently to ensure that enough operators remained available to handle orders.
  • Some operators exceeded their break times, affecting response speed and service quality.
