Digitalization Award 2025 – Journey of the Year

JD Sports uses SoftOne GO to ensure smooth workforce planning and efficient scheduling across its stores throughout the Nordic region. In addition, the company has expanded its collaboration to include payroll outsourcing with SoftOne, enabling them to benefit from having the entire process — from scheduling to payroll — managed within a single system, including real-time visibility into labor costs.

We spoke with Zandra Lindholm, People Coordinator Nordics at JD Sports, who shared her experiences from a user perspective.
