Workforce Optimization
Data-Driven Solutions for Long-Term Workforce Stability
At Burgio Educational Consulting Services (BECS), we know sustainable staffing is about more than filling vacancies — it’s about building a workforce system that promotes retention, maximizes the impact of support staff, and aligns resources with student-outcome goals.
Our Workforce Optimization Model integrates data analysis, strategic deployment, and continuous improvement to help Washington school districts reduce reliance on emergency staffing and strengthen their internal workforce infrastructure for lasting success.
