How could you improve on productivity levels within your salon? Explain how you feel something could be improved or changed. (Please be constructive)

* Human
All staff who are employed are fully used in the salon. There is no waiting around and if there is a gap between clients then duties such as cleaning retail shelves, checking stock levels are undertaken.
The salon is not understaffed or over staffed. There is no need for another junior.

* Stock
The salon has a fully stocked retail area, which is fully stocked at all times. However i do feel that in this area there is more retail stock on the shelves than necessary, as the salon staff do not push retail and do not have targets set for earning commission on selling. I feel retail stock could be reduced by a large amount.
With regard to stock of colours there are a lot mainly semis and temporary from different brands which aren’t used and sit on the shelves. This area could also be scaled down.
Regarding colours that are used a lot the ordering system is good as orders can be placed in the morning and delivered by lunchtime.

* Tools and equipment
The salon has got all the equipment necessary if there is an issue regarding damaged equipment, and then the salon manager is very quick to rectify it. Also the salon manager is quick to replace combs and other sundries on a regular basis. Ppe is always available

* Time
Time is used constructively the stylists and director tend to have back to back clients and the appointment system is managed very well.
The junior is used to her full

    In last few stages of our analysis and an IT solution was proposed of having a customer scheduling software used to help manage UMUC Haircuts customer schedule. The software that was looked at was BOOKFRESH scheduling software. This software would allow customers to dictate Myra’s schedule for her and allow for easy review via a computer used at work, home, or even on mobile platform devices. Although this adds another way of scheduling appointments, this removes a lot of unnecessary steps that were present before in the flow of the process. This streamlines the process and makes it harder for customers to be turned away from UMUC Haircuts since most will make their own appointments and the old ways are still present just refined. All-in-all this creates more revenue for UMUC Haircuts and adds little expense to the salon over all.…

    However, the retailer still had to take into account what the customer may demand. Given the limited information we had in the game, we could not accurately forecast the amount of stock to maintain for the retailer.
