From fragmented data and manual processes to strategic agility​

A public sector organisation gains control over its workforce data, streamlines transformation, and enables data-driven decisions, making the organisation more agile, efficient, and adaptable.

We finally have a clear, unified view of our workforce, allowing us to make faster, informed decisions. We’re more agile and ready to adapt to change than ever before.

Org Effectiveness Leader

Context and business problem

  • The organisation aimed to modernise its approach to org design to better respond to current and future needs​.
  • But data was fragmented, inconsistent, and incomplete, creating confusion and mistrust.​
  • Separate records in HR, Finance, and other departments caused misalignment and poor collaboration​.
  • Reliance on Excel and PowerPoint made processes slow, error-prone, and inefficient under tight deadlines​.
  • The lack of reliable data blocked strategic decisions, hindering workforce management and market responsiveness.

Business goal

  • Establish a centralised, reliable data source to reflect the workforce and organisational structure accurately​.
  • Streamline transformation processes for faster, more informed decision-making​.
  • Enhance agility and adaptability to respond effectively to changing business needs​.
  • Enable precise workforce planning and position management to support long-term growth.

Solution

  • Consolidated data from over 30 platforms into one reliable, up-to-date source with clear org charts and metrics, enabling consistent, accurate decision-making​.
  • Provided leaders with a clear, immediate view of the workforce, including vacancies and position hierarchies, helping to identify cost savings, assess efficiency, and benchmark effectiveness.​
  • Enabled real-time management of positions and vacancies synced with HRIS, improving data quality, insights, and planning control.​
  • Modeled “what-if” scenarios for leaders to explore using drag-and-drop tools, achieving projected cost savings of over £100K.
  • Trained teams on a unified transformation approach, making the organisation more adaptable to change and progress more measurable.
