Cloud-based workforce scheduling that auto-generates fair, compliant shift plans and streamlines operations for hospitals and clinics.
The Challenge
The client needed a modern, scalable scheduling platform that could respect complex healthcare constraints—post-shift rest, balanced distribution, department-level needs—while remaining easy for managers and staff to use.
Our Solution
Our team of 6 engineers delivered a secure, multi-tenant React + Node.js + PostgreSQL application on AWS. We implemented smart auto-scheduling rules, balanced shift distribution, role-based access control, notification workflows, exports, and an approvals pipeline. The architecture supports departmental growth and organization-wide oversight.
The Outcome
Oplist empowers healthcare teams to generate fair, compliant rosters in minutes, monitor coverage across departments, and keep everyone aligned through automated updates and approvals—leading to measurable time savings for managers and better shift equity for staff.
Highlights
- Auto-generated shift plans honoring rest periods and staffing targets
- Balanced or uniform distribution options per department
- Centralized, role-based admin with approvals and auditability
- Staff notifications and multi-format schedule exports
- Scalable, multi-tenant infrastructure with CI/CD on AWS
