Diving at the hurdle of talent supply.

Diving at the hurdle of talent supply.

How a global sports gear brand was enabled to fill a giant resource gap.

Backstory

The passion for keeping people outdoors led this global sports gear brand based in Portland. The brand was fortified with industry-leading technologies and products tested in their own backyard. 
While their goods & wares reflected their indomitable spirit, on the far side, their stellar marketing effort was limited by workforce inefficiency. That’s when the business discovered Flexipert. 
The Problem

Dealing with a plentitude of data for their operations, our client was on a mission to build a digital workforce via Robotic Process Automation to automate mundane, high-volume, rule-based, and repeatable tasks. 

With a clear vision to bring Robotic Process Automation into the mainstream, our client started aligning the products and resources from the ground up. The team chose the top two web-based management systems — Automation Anywhere and Pega Resource — with the goal of transforming their workforce. 

Where was the mind block: A giant resource gap was a fly in the ointment. In North America, the demand for technically equipped resources exceeded the supply – leading to a dearth of talent. As a result of this disequilibrium, the talent cost went over the odds. In brief, talent was either not available or was fiercely expensive.

Goals
  • To dive at the hurdle of talent supply and clip the top.
  • To unearth a cost reduction system that matches the business’s financial capabilities.
  • To bring themselves to the forefront of Remote Digital Workforce.
The Flexipert Difference
Flexipert’s Fortune 500 quality remote talent helped them unleash a talent pool, bigger than ever — reshaping their workforce makeup — at a cost that surprised them. To complement their workforce efficiency and maximize automation, Flexipert actualized a constant influx of remote talent, who within a span of 9 months helped the business meet its automation goals at a 70% reduction in operational cost.

The big picture: 

#1 Together, they succeeded in completing the project 3 months in advance.
#2 The team gave pertinent architecting solutions for the application.
#3 This project led to the inception of business enthusiasts who were ready to galvanize every facet of their digital workforce. Confidence was at an all-time high.

Why it matters: Because this remote talent came at a no-lock-in, it was far more flexible, with naturally predictable results and a better alignment of expectations. With Flexipert, the business was able to look beyond boundaries. We opened the floodgates to a gigantic pool of top-tier remote talent, helping them scale their automation dreams. 

To date, a 10-member remote team has been working with them in accordance with the internal automation goals.

Once our client added a remote workforce to the mix and began mining software robotics, the workflow management maximized significantly — without the team having to manually oversee their processes. 

As our client’s legendary founder believes in the theory “beyond perfectionism” — “It’s perfect. Now make it better” — now they’re focusing their minds and manpower on the bigger problems faced by their consumers.
