A system includes a controller having a memory configured to store instructions and one or more processors. The controller receives one or more staffing inputs from a database, determine a staffing plan based on the one or more staffing inputs and an iterative algorithm. The staffing plan includes a table of a plurality of staffing assignments. Each staffing assignment of the plurality of staffing assignments includes a staff member identifier, a shift identifier indicative of an assigned shift, a product line identifier indicative of a product line to which a staff member is assigned, or a combination thereof. The controller controls a user interface to display the staffing plan.
