The client required a flexible solution to provide a scalable on demand workforce to flex with their needs with a cost effective solution that allowed for greater program control and addressed the workforce demand for more than 80% of the their national retail sites.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Solution<\/strong><br \/>\nWe provided a world class workforce management solution, including demand planning, resource management, recruiting, onboarding and training, performance management, and retention processes. Initially, our team assessed the challenges and built a Demand Forecast based on demand assumptions, historic volumes, and sales estimates for each site. We then built a \u201cproof of concept pilot program\u201d and tested across three different markets that became the basis for launching the full program. Key elements of our solution included:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A repeatable recruiting strategy and processes to ensure resources were consistent with our client\u2019s brand<\/li>\n<li>Implementing a rating\/rewards program to track performance metrics and pay incentive rewards monthly<\/li>\n<li>Developing a SharePoint\u2122 interface\/collaboration environment to enable program communications<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>The Result<\/strong><br \/>\nOur cost effective solution increased responsiveness to service sales requests and minimized backlogs. Our flexibility to accommodate demand changes due to varying sales numbers, inclement weather, and other unforeseen business impacts facilitated program acceptance. The client hit key metrics, including utilization and fulfillment numbers not previously achieved. Client executives viewed program as a major success. Highlights included:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Managing 730 resources at program peak<\/li>\n<li>Scoring an average performance rating of 4.29 out of 5<\/li>\n<li>Less than 16% attrition<\/li>\n<li>Increasing fulfillments by more than 50% over approach prior to our workforce management<\/li>\n<li>Reducing use of higher cost subcontractors by more than 50%<\/li>\n<li>Eliminating 3,000 hours our client management time had spent on seasonal staffing and repurposed that time for business operations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During each holiday season, our client\u2019s audio visual and appliance delivery, configuration and installation demand surges.
