Interim Management
Educational logistics; a term of only a few letters, but one that encompasses an awful lot. After all, it encompasses the entire Student Life Cycle, from orientation to alumni. A world that is constantly changing in terms of employees, systems and processes. Consider, for example, the increasingly sophisticated systems for creating a schedule or real-time monitoring of building occupancy. In addition, the flexibilization of education is a challenge for processes as well as systems and ultimately employees.

Case study
A Senz Interim consultant supported an educational institution in optimizing their scheduling process. The institution was struggling with inefficient scheduling, last-minute changes and a lack of overview.
Our consultant started with a thorough analysis of the existing process, using flow charts to identify bottlenecks and inefficiencies. By engaging with all stakeholders – from schedulers and faculty to students and management – both technical and organizational improvement opportunities were identified.
Based on these insights, a new, streamlined scheduling process was designed. This resulted in:
- A more efficient system that required fewer manual adjustments.
- Better coordination between classes, teachers and available classrooms.
- Fewer last-minute changes, which reduced the workload of both schedulers and teachers.
- Increased student satisfaction due to a more predictable and balanced schedule.
