"Cost-Plus" Model Solution

Customer Challenge: Large Packaging Organization was encountering severe difficulties in their business operations and was on the brink of bankruptcy. NUera4 Solutions (N4) was brought in to be part of one of four (4) major initiatives (HR) to evaluate and reorganize the organization’s current infrastructure. In the initial evaluation, it was determined there were several ways to improve contingent labor spend, develop processes to improve resource time-to-fill and lower employee attrition for the company. Result: Developed a “Cost Plus” model that lowered the overall expense of contingent labor by $1.5m; improved resource time-to-fill and employee turnover by over 50%. Results were directly tied to the establishment of a creative vendor management program. N4 was hailed a “major contributor” for the organization’s dramatic turnaround. The company eventually became a Fortune 100 company.

Employer Brand & Executive Hire Solution

Customer Challenge: Medicaid fraud was uncovered by the FBI with a major player in the Managed Health Care industry. NUera4 Solutions (N4) was retained six (6) months after the FBI raid occurred to rebuild and overcome the negative perception of the company. Result: N4 successfully managed the Talent Acquisition team to improve corporate morale, rebuild the executive suite and the organization’s “Employer Brand.” In eighteen (18) months, our team dramatically improved executive level and “time-to-fill” on-boarding as well as overall third-party search firm costs. N4 received numerous accolades in various areas (IT, Strategy, Legal), where executive perception of Talent Acquisition improved exponentially. The Managed Health Care company became a major player post N4 involvement and is now part of a Fortune 100 company.

"Sourcing Model" Solution

Customer challenge: NUera4 Solutions (N4) was brought in by a large retail corporation to evaluate and restructure their North America B2B Sales Talent Acquisition program. Sales were plummeting as a result of their inability to source qualified sales account executives in various regions of North America. District Directors were on the verge of losing their positions as a result of the gap in filling these critical roles. Result: After an initial 30-day assessment and evaluation of the current structure, it was ascertained that major changes needed to be made. Recruitment training for proactive sourcing was implemented to improve time to fill roles and 3rd party search firm costs. Seventy-four (74) hires were made internally and a creative employer brand marketing effort was developed which further supplemented Talent Acquisition roles in suffering markets and boosted sales. Changes made to the retail B2B sales organization still remain in place to this day.

Talent Acquisition Optimization Solution

Customer Challenge: NUera4 Solutions (N4) was retained to manage and improve the existing Talent Acquisition team for a mid-size global technology company. The executive team was dissatisfied with the overall quality of hires and time-to-fill critical roles. The organization required top talent to support revenue growth and improve their employee attrition. Executive level turnover was also robust and company morale was low as a result. Result: After an initial evaluation of the Talent Acquisition team and structure, N4 built a proactive strategy in the recruitment of passive candidates. New sourcing tactics were established to attack the marketplace in areas where critical hires were required. N4 partnered with their leadership team to improve the candidate evaluation process which significantly reduced employee turnover. Poor perception within the executive team improved dramatically and Talent Acquisition is now considered a value-added entity within the organization.
