Time Care

What Time Care does

Time Care AB is a Sweden-based software provider of cloud-based workforce planning and scheduling solutions, founded in 1993 and operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the RLDatix group (UK parent: Allocate Software Limited). The company serves Swedish municipalities and healthcare/social-care providers, with stated daily use by more than 60% of Sweden's kommuner (municipalities). Its product portfolio is built around three modules: Time Care Planering (scheduling based on operational needs), Time Care Pool (temporary staffing and substitute worker management), and Time Care Cloud (cloud infrastructure enabling secure, location-independent access). Underlying technology emphasizes integration depth — the vendor self-describes as the most integrated scheduling system in the Swedish market, with native connectors to HR & Lön (HR & Payroll), LAS (leave/absence/labour law) systems, and detail planning systems across home care, housing, personal assistance, and school/preschool services. Domain IP is reinforced by 30+ years of scheduling specialization and a consultant base with 200+ aggregate years of municipal staffing experience.

The business model is enterprise SaaS sold via direct field sales to Swedish public-sector buyers on a quote-basis (no public pricing), supplemented by professional services for implementation, training, and consulting. Customer concentration is heavily skewed to Swedish municipal government, with named logo customers including Luleå (a customer since 1999), Fagersta, Bromölla, Härjedalens, Norsjö, Kristianstads, Kävlinge, Sjöbo, Kristinehamns, Simrishamn, Ljungby, Torsås, Lunds, and Höörs kommuner. In 2019 Time Care was acquired by RLDatix and now sits within a broader healthcare workforce management and patient safety portfolio that spans the UK & Ireland, North America, Germany, Australia, North Macedonia, and the Middle East and Africa. The Sweden marketing front-end is operated under the RLDatix AB brand ('previously Time Care'). AI features at the group level (Smart Match for temporary staffing, optimization-driven rostering, knowledge retrieval for policy management) are exposed through the Time Care Pool and Time Care Cloud surfaces.
