ActivTrak Unveils C-Suite Tools to Calculate the Cost of Untapped Workforce Capacity

New solutions position workforce optimization as a strategic lever for enterprise performance and profitability

AUSTIN, Texas, April 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — ActivTrak today announced new executive solutions designed to elevate workforce optimization to the forefront of C-suite priorities: Financial Loss Analysis and Activity Alignment. Studies show that most organizations lose 20–30% of workforce capacity to hidden inefficiencies, representing millions in unrealized labor ROI each year. ActivTrak’s new tools translate workforce data into actionable executive insights, enabling smarter decisions around resource allocation, performance improvement and organizational design.

Workforce optimization — once considered a middle-management concern — is now a boardroom imperative. As leaders navigate economic headwinds and rising demands for productivity, ActivTrak’s latest offerings help organizations reclaim wasted capacity and improve performance at scale by addressing inefficiencies through two strategic lenses: financial impact and operational effectiveness.

Financial Loss Analysis converts productivity gaps into concrete financial metrics by quantifying underutilized FTEs and associated salary costs. Executives can filter by department, location or productivity thresholds to pinpoint cost-saving opportunities and guide strategic workforce planning. Early adopters report 15–20% reductions in idle capacity within 90 days and up to 10% payroll cost savings.

Activity Alignment offers clarity into how employee time is distributed between high-value and low-value activities. Managers can identify distractions, inefficiencies or misaligned focus areas and use a built-in coaching framework that provides tailored guidance to facilitate performance improvement conversations.

Together, these tools redefine how the C-suite tackles workforce optimization:

CFOs gain visibility into cost-to-output ratios and prevent unnecessary headcount expansion.COOs uncover workload imbalances and streamline operational models.CHROs harness behavioral insights to coach performance, reduce burnout, and scale managerial effectiveness.

“These solutions represent a major leap forward in workforce intelligence and optimization,” said Heidi Farris, CEO at ActivTrak. “Amid financial pressure and uncertainty, leaders need to base critical decisions on real-world insights, not gut instinct. Financial Loss Analysis helps quantify and recover wasted capacity, while Activity Alignment helps ensure employee effort contributes to business results — transforming productivity data into a powerful lever for performance and growth.”

The Financial Loss Analysis dashboard is available today as part of ActivTrak’s BI solution library and will be available in-app to Essentials Plus, Professional and Premium plan customers for Early Access by the end of April and for General Availability in June. Activity Alignment is available now both as part of ActivTrak’s BI solution library and in-app.

“Executives have sophisticated systems for tracking sales, marketing and financial metrics, but workforce performance has remained largely opaque,” continued Farris. “These solutions close the intelligence gap between workforce activity and business performance — elevating workforce metrics from operational data points to boardroom-ready business drivers.”

PS Hogan highlights investments from Spring Economic Update 2026: Canada Strong for All to support Canada’s sport system

Published

on

By

CALGARY, AB, May 2, 2026 /CNW/ – In Budget 2025, we outlined our plan to build Canada Strong. Since then, we have moved fast to build the major infrastructure, homes and industries that grow Canada’s economy and create lasting prosperity; empower Canadians with better careers and a more affordable life; and protect our communities, our borders and our way of life.

We delivered concrete savings for Canadians while supporting key national priorities and keeping investments focused on results. We are maintaining a strong fiscal position, with the Spring Economic Update 2026 showing that projected deficits are lower over the fiscal horizon and that we are on track to meet our fiscal anchors.

The Spring Economic Update 2026 is the next step in our plan to build Canada Strong for All. It provides a clear update on the strength of Canada’s economy, giving Canadians confidence in our plan. It delivers targeted relief to make life more affordable, support workers and accelerate the construction of homes and major infrastructure. It also strengthens Canada’s competitiveness and economic growth while investing in strong, safe communities across the country.

Today, Corey Hogan, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Energy and Natural Resources and Member of Parliament for Calgary Confederation, met with athletes at Foothills Athletic Park to highlight key investments in sport from the Spring Economic Update to build stronger and safer communities.

The Government of Canada is investing $755 million to support and expand Canada’s sport system, which will help athletes safely train and perform at the highest levels. This will increase sport participation across the country by strengthening national sport organizations, infrastructure and local sport communities.

Canada’s new government is transforming our economy from reliance to resilience. The Spring Economic Update 2026 ensures all Canadians can participate in building Canada strong and share in its success. Other key measures include:

The Canada Strong Fund — Canada’s first national sovereign wealth fund. This will invest in key, strategic Canadian projects and companies. While Canadians will benefit from these nation building projects through jobs, economic growth and greater security, the government is determined to ensure that Canadians also have a stake in the projects themselves. That’s why a unique and important feature of the Canada Strong Fund will be its new retail investment product. This allows Canadians to receive financial returns as we build Canada strong together.Team Canada Strong — a new nationwide effort to recruit, train and hire 80,000 to 100,000 new skilled trade workers by 2030–31. This initiative creates new opportunities for Canadians and attracts the workers needed to build more homes and major projects at speed and at scale.Building Stronger Communities — by making communities safer, more connected and more resilient. We are building more homes, getting tougher on crime and fraud and funding essential infrastructure, including small craft harbours that sustain coastal communities and local jobs. We are also investing to build healthier, safer and stronger Indigenous communities.

Our new government is building a Canada that is not just strong, but good; not just prosperous, but fair. A Canada that is not just for some, most of the time, but for all, at all times. We’re building Canada strong, for all.

Quote

“The Spring Economic Update 2026 builds on the momentum of our budget, combining strategic investments with sustained fiscal discipline to keep building Canada Strong for All — delivering prosperity today and strengthening our economy for tomorrow. At this pivotal moment in Canada’s history, we’re charting a course through the fog of uncertainty and global headwinds with strength, determination and ambition — and building one strong Canadian economy, by Canadians, for Canadians.”
— The Honourable François-Philippe Champagne, Minister of Finance and National Revenue 

“The Government of Canada is building Canada Strong by investing in what brings us together — our people, our communities and our athletes. By strengthening the foundation of Calgary and  Canada’s sport system, we are building a resilient economy and strong communities for all.”
— Corey Hogan, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Energy and Natural Resources and Member of Parliament for Calgary Confederation

Quick Facts

The Spring Economic Update 2026 proposes to provide $755 million over five years, starting in 2026–27, and $118 million ongoing to Canadian Heritage to support Canada’s sport system to: Host and compete with the best: $50 million over five years to bring more world-class sporting events to Canada. Funding will be tied to legacy-building projects that deliver lasting benefits well beyond the events themselves. Facilities built or upgraded for major events will continue to serve communities, support grassroots participation and strengthen local sport systems for years to come. Support our athletes in performing at the highest levels: $45 million over five years and $8 million ongoing to help our athletes train, compete and perform, including support for better mental health and funding that will be linked to robust safe sport measures and frameworks. These actions will strengthen the sport system and respond to some of the findings of the Final Report of the Future of Sport in Canada Commission while the government continues to consider all of its Calls to Action. Get more Canadians involved in sport: $660 million over five years and $110 million ongoing for National Sport Organisations, increasing funding that has remained largely unchanged since 2005, so that they can invest in a strong and safe sport system and grow participation among children and youth nationwide.
