We have worked with the City of Cardiff Council since the award of the contract in 2016. Working in partnership with Cardiff meant that we were able to achieve full buy in from the Hiring Managers at the Council. With our service provided we were able to introduce savings to the Council and provide them with high quality workers.
The previous incumbent had not made the council feel supported nor did they offer guidance through the ordering process. There was no support with cost control and the incumbent was unable to meet short notice requirements. We found a lack of faith from Hiring Managers which resulted in poor attendance of our training sessions.
During implementation we ensured that the Council received the best support available and improved processes which included the systemisation of placement extensions. We also provided real time reports that detailed cost and were capable of meeting their short notice requirements through our cr.net platform.
We provided extensive training to Hiring Managers, but also provided an onsite Account Manager to assist them with any requests or issues they had.
Working in partnership we were able to overcome the initial hurdles and faith was found in our system. By streamlining the process through our software we are able to provide the Council with transparency, realtime reporting, cost savings and a fast fulfilment rate.
