A multibillion-dollar health insurance provider needed to update their operational database and data warehouse in order to serve the millions of customers they recently acquired.
Our client developed a new BI strategy and first tried utilizing traditional staffing firms to hire the resources needed to help their limited IT staff with implementation. However, even after spending millions of dollars, the project was still incomplete and the hard-to-find ETL resources required still had not been hired.
Recognizing their reputation was on the line, our client’s new leader partnered with Kforce to get the BI initiative back on track by leveraging our specialization in data warehousing and extensive network of top BI consultants.
Kforce Solution:
Utilize a team of experts and an extensive candidate network to evaluate the BI strategy, hiring process and project requirements to deliver the best project solution
Kforce engaged a team of senior leaders and immigration experts to partner with our client’s project leaders to assess the current BI implementation strategy, hiring process and where we could best add value. Our experts identified several bottlenecks in the hiring process, preventing our client from attracting and retaining the best talent in the marketplace.
By integrating a series of end-to-end efficiencies, we were able to save our client time spent in interviews and onboarding of foreign-born talent requiring visas, as well as save resources by managing the completion of deployments in key project phases.
Through our client’s partnership with Kforce, they became more competitive and agile during the hiring process. Kforce successfully placed 17 ETL professionals on the BI initiative within days, ensuring the project was back on track and on budget to meet the needs of our client’s customers.
Due to Kforce’s ability to provide superior resources, our client named us a key partner for future projects and engaged us for the next phase of their BI strategy, which involved upgrading their BI software tools to a new version of IBM Cognos.
