Workforce Optimisation for Grocery & Retail

Smarter Maintenance. Fewer Callouts. Stronger Results.

Technician shortages, rising labour costs, and after-hours emergencies are pushing grocery operations to the limit. Bueno’s Workforce Optimisation solution transforms how service teams manage refrigeration and HVAC maintenance across store networks.

By consolidating alarms, preventative tasks, and predictive insights into one platform, Bueno eliminates the fragmented workflows that drain resources. Our analytics pool tickets by site, contractor, or urgency, enabling technicians to resolve more issues in a single visit. On average, grocery partners see a 20%+ reduction in truck rolls—cutting downtime, labour costs, and after-hours callouts.

The Challenge: Labour Shortages and Inefficient Dispatch

Most grocery stores rely on separate systems for alarms, maintenance schedules, and contractor work orders. Technicians are often dispatched without context, wasting time on site and missing opportunities to tackle related issues. The result? More truck rolls, slower fixes, and escalating costs.

The Bueno Approach: One Platform, Unified Workflows

Bueno brings all maintenance inputs together—alarms, scheduled PMs, and predictive insights—so teams see the full picture before dispatch.

  • Pre-Dispatch Diagnostics – Review recent anomalies before sending a technician.

  • Predictive Task Clustering – Pool multiple jobs into one visit, reducing repeat trips.

  • Proactive Scheduling – Shift fixes to business hours, avoiding costly after-hours callouts.

  • In-Store Enablement – Empower store teams to resolve minor resets safely with guided rules.

Driving Verified Results

Our solution doesn’t stop at dispatch. Every action is logged, validated, and shared across your network:

  • Work Verification Reports confirm that faults were resolved.

  • Resolution Evidence is visible to managers, contractors, and ESG teams.

  • Performance Tracking benchmarks technician efficiency, uptime, and fix rates.

By turning fragmented tasks into a single source of truth, Bueno enables grocery operators to fight back against workforce shortages while improving compliance, uptime, and service quality.
