wfx™ workforce exchange
Broadlane Workforce Management provides a vendor-neutral, Web-based technology that enables you to lock in contracted savings and ensure nurse quality through active monitoring and tracking of staff credentials and performance. This technology was specifically designed as an end-to-end solution for the unique requirements and challenges of the clinical staffing environment. You can use this software alone to manage your temporary labor process, or you can use it to accompany the other Broadlane Workforce Management offerings.
Broadlane’s labor technology arms staffing professionals with the tools needed to effectively manage all aspects of the nurse contract labor process. wfx workforce exchange functions as a stand-alone application and can also complement your existing payables and scheduling software applications. The end result is a reduction in operating expenses, a decreased hiring time cycle, and improved quality, compliance and reporting. The technology facilitates:
- Internal shift management
- Job requisition creation
- Candidate evaluation and hiring
- License and certification management
- Vendor performance assessment
- Reverse invoicing
- Financial metrics and compliance reporting
Broadlane’s labor technology generates an invoice to be submitted to a staffing agency based on the amount of contract staff used and hours worked. It eliminates the traditional, error-prone invoicing process, which is costly and time-consuming.
The technology also provides an easy-to-use dashboard that assigns roles and responsibilities to all users, and allows individuals to view only that part of the staffing process relevant to their job function. For example, a staffing coordinator might be permitted to review, hire and check in a nurse candidate, but not approve the candidate’s time card or create an invoice.
wfx workforce exchange offers internal shift management technology, which routes staffing needs to both internal candidates and external candidates (via staffing agencies). This automates the current staffing work flow, allowing in-house staff greater visibility of open shifts before they are sent out to agencies.
Capabilities include:
- A single platform of requisition/selection of all available/qualified internal or external staff
- Prioritized requisition distribution by desired tier (e.g. core staff, hospital-based per diem, in-house regional pool or agency)
- Ability to view and compare resource work history, evaluations, skills, credentials and other critical information
- Effective management of all shift pricing and incentives
- Allows staff to search for and identify shifts that match their needs, interests and qualifications
