Enabling Informed Technology Adoption with Custom Talent Marketplace Platform Research
The client needed a strategy for maximising the potential of its large global team
With more than 13,000 employees in 50 global offices and a need to maximise its talents’ potential, NRI wanted to explore the business and technology landscape of Talent Marketplace (TMP) solutions currently available on the market.
The client needed a comprehensive analysis of the TMP solutions industry to help it set the grounds for its business strategy within this domain.
Comprehensive research and analysis to help NRI explore the best TMP options available
The ELEKS team supplied NRI with a research report analysing the existing Talent Marketplace (TMP) platforms from a business and technology perspective. We identified 11 major market players, then prepared in-depth descriptions and comparisons of the ‘top five’ – Gloat, Fuel50, Neobrain, SAP SuccessFactors and Eightfold – based on the strength of their track records. Our team selected companies of varied size and product mix in order to capture a holistic view of the market.
We applied the following methodologies to provide NRI with targeted results:
- Business analysis - compiling and analysing existing data from a variety of public sources, such as technological research agencies, press releases and online media;
- Technology analysis - functional benchmarking of existing solutions focusing on descriptions of products, modules, features and functionalities. UI analysis of information including screenshots, demos, forums and consulting firms;
- Interviews with companies - conducting seven interviews with TMP provider representatives. Conversations were based on a script that focused on NRI’s topics of concern;
- Survey of companies - questionnaire sent to the TMP providers and peripheral companies with whom we had previously made contact.
NRI received a detailed research report, which included a presentation of key findings and summaries for senior management, plus all interview recordings and survey results along with corresponding analysis.
The breadth of knowledge and understanding that ELEKS has within its walls allows us to leverage that expertise to make superior deliverables for our customers. When you work with ELEKS, you are working with the top 1% of the aptitude and engineering excellence of the whole country.
Right from the start, we really liked ELEKS’ commitment and engagement. They came to us with their best people to try to understand our context, our business idea, and developed the first prototype with us. They were very professional and very customer oriented. I think, without ELEKS it probably would not have been possible to have such a successful product in such a short period of time.
ELEKS has been involved in the development of a number of our consumer-facing websites and mobile applications that allow our customers to easily track their shipments, get the information they need as well as stay in touch with us. We’ve appreciated the level of ELEKS’ expertise, responsiveness and attention to details.
