In today’s business landscape, workforce management isn’t just about scheduling shifts and tracking hours. It’s a complex and dynamic process that can significantly impact your organisation’s efficiency, productivity, and bottom line. At Simms & Associates, we understand the challenges that businesses like yours face when it comes to managing their workforce effectively. Let’s dive into the real-world problems and solutions with insights from our case studies.
Problem 1: Lack of Clarity in Workforce Management Roles and Responsibilities
In our case study with a major energy company, we encountered a common issue – a lack of clarity in role scopes and responsibilities within the central team and between different functions and operations. This ambiguity often leads to miscommunication, inefficiencies, and frustration among team members.
Solution
Simms & Associates worked collaboratively with the company to provide clarity on their workforce management operating model, specifically by adjusting role scopes and responsibilities. By clearly defining who does what, the organisation was able to streamline its processes and foster better collaboration.
Problem 2: Payroll Issues Stemming from Lack of Visibility
Many businesses grapple with payroll problems that are difficult to resolve due to a lack of visibility into the root causes. Our case studies have shown that these issues can be a significant drain on time and resources.
Solution
Through our Workforce Management Effectiveness Check-up, we helped our clients gain visibility into the root causes of payroll issues. By identifying and addressing these issues, businesses were able to reduce errors, save time, and ensure accurate and timely payroll processing.
Problem 3: Underutilised Workforce Management Systems
In another case study, we worked with a global pharmaceutical manufacturer that felt their UKG Dimensions system wasn’t being used to its full potential. This underutilisation of a powerful system can result in missed opportunities for efficiency and effectiveness.
Solution
Our team conducted a comprehensive review of the UKG Dimensions system and provided recommendations for optimising its use. By empowering managers with a deeper understanding of the system’s capabilities, the manufacturer was able to harness the full potential of their workforce management technology.
