Business requirement

The sales team’s average available strength for any quarter was a key factor affecting the set sales objectives. In a high attrition domain, it was a challenge to maintain the sales bandwidth – accountability of the HR department. While pursuing the efforts, the HR managers struggled constantly to track the performance of its team members in a way that could help them make appropriate decisions on utilising the HR team’s bandwidth and selecting members for training programs. In the HR department that consisted of 35 members, right and faster decision-making on these factors could aptly help avoid the spiral effects across the HR and Sales department’s performances. Not to forget the ‘cost & time’ to hire and train new employees.

Moreover, due to their continuous hiring and onboarding efforts, each HR manager had to spend approx. 60 man-days yearly in generating analytical reports (manually), which of course makes it prone to errors and inaccuracies.

CORE CHALLANGES

  • The HR Team is always under pressure to hire more sales resources to keep up with the agreed sales team strength for given revenue objectives
  • Longer time to hire would directly impact sales team bandwidth and revenue objectives.
