The Situation

[/fusion_title][fusion_text columns=”” column_min_width=”” column_spacing=”” rule_style=”default” rule_size=”” rule_color=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=””]A Fortune 15 global manufacturer’s parts distribution center located in the Midwest, was experiencing significant performance issues with their decentralized staffing model to meet their contingent staffing initiatives.

A significant staffing shortfall – less than 60% of the required headcount goal – led to chronic delays in fulfillment and increased labor costs due to excessive overtime. Additionally, mandatory seven-day work weeks, necessary to meet fulfillment demand, contributed to a low retention rate.[/fusion_text][/fusion_builder_column][fusion_builder_column type=”2_5″ layout=”2_5″ spacing=”” center_content=”no” link=”” target=”_self” min_height=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”whitePaperKeyTakeaways” id=”” background_image_id=”” gradient_top_color=”” gradient_bottom_color=”” gradient_type=”vertical” gradient_direction=”0deg” gradient_force=”yes” background_color=”” background_image=”” background_position=”left top” background_repeat=”no-repeat” hover_type=”none” border_size=”0″ border_color=”” border_style=”solid” border_position=”all” border_radius_top_left=”” border_radius_top_right=”” border_radius_bottom_left=”” border_radius_bottom_right=”” box_shadow=”no” box_shadow_vertical=”” box_shadow_horizontal=”” box_shadow_blur=”0″ box_shadow_spread=”0″ box_shadow_color=”” box_shadow_style=”” padding_top=”” padding_right=”” padding_bottom=”” padding_left=”” margin_top=”” margin_bottom=”” animation_type=”” animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_offset=”” last=”no”][iee_list_box title=”Exegistics Delivered” title_align=”center” icon=”fa-check fas” iconcolor=”” circle=”yes” circlecolor=”#66a23a” size=”16px” item_align=”left” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=”” title_color=”” border_size=”1″ border_color=”#dddddd” border_style=”solid” border_radius=”square”][iee_list_box_item icon=””]Increased headcount over 200% by first conducting an in-depth market and industry study, then customized an aggressive recruiting action plan to meet the headcount goal[/iee_list_box_item][iee_list_box_item icon=””]Reduced turnover 64% by building a sound talent pipeline, minimizing overtime and an overworked labor force[/iee_list_box_item][/iee_list_box][/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container][fusion_builder_container hundred_percent=”no” hundred_percent_height=”no” hundred_percent_height_scroll=”no” hundred_percent_height_center_content=”yes” equal_height_columns=”no” menu_anchor=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” status=”published” publish_date=”” class=”” id=”” gradient_top_color=”” gradient_bottom_color=”” gradient_type=”vertical” gradient_direction=”0deg” gradient_force=”yes” background_color=”” background_image=”” background_position=”center center” background_repeat=”no-repeat” fade=”no” background_parallax=”none” enable_mobile=”no” parallax_speed=”0.3″ video_mp4=”” video_webm=”” video_ogv=”” video_url=”” video_aspect_ratio=”16:9″ video_loop=”yes” video_mute=”yes” video_preview_image=”” border_size=”” border_color=”” border_style=”solid” margin_top=”0px” margin_bottom=”” padding_top=”0px” padding_right=”” padding_bottom=”” padding_left=””][fusion_builder_row][fusion_builder_column type=”1_1″ layout=”1_1″ gradient_top_color=”” gradient_bottom_color=”” gradient_type=”vertical” gradient_direction=”0deg” gradient_force=”yes” spacing=”” center_content=”no” link=”” target=”_self” min_height=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=”” background_color=”” background_image=”” background_image_id=”” background_position=”left top” background_repeat=”no-repeat” hover_type=”none” border_size=”0″ border_color=”” border_style=”solid” border_position=”all” border_radius=”” box_shadow=”no” dimension_box_shadow=”” box_shadow_blur=”0″ box_shadow_spread=”0″ box_shadow_color=”” box_shadow_style=”” padding_top=”” padding_right=”” padding_bottom=”” padding_left=”” margin_top=”” margin_bottom=”” animation_type=”” animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_offset=”” last=”no”][fusion_title hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=”” content_align=”left” size=”2″ font_size=”” line_height=”” letter_spacing=”” margin_top=”” margin_bottom=”” margin_top_mobile=”” margin_bottom_mobile=”” text_color=”” style_type=”default” sep_color=””]

The Solution

[/fusion_title][fusion_text columns=”” column_min_width=”” column_spacing=”” rule_style=”default” rule_size=”” rule_color=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=””]“As a 3PL provider, we are experienced running operations for diverse industries,” said Dan Farne, VP of Account Management, “and Exegistics Resource Solutions (ERS) was prepared to address the staffing challenges that the Fortune 15 company was experiencing.”

To meet the day-to-day key performance metrics and sustain optimal efficiencies, ERS launched an onsite staffing solution within an aggressive timeline and a dedicated onsite expert, to source, ramp up and oversee the company’s contingent labor program, including selecting qualified sub-vendor partners to meet staffing requirements.

In just a short period of time, ERS achieved:

  • Increased headcount over 200% by first conducting an in-depth market and industry study, then customized an aggressive recruiting action plan to meet the headcount goal
  • Reduced turnover 64% by building a sound talent pipeline, minimizing overtime and an overworked labor force

“When executed well, operational staffing solutions save time and allow our customers to focus on their core business,” added Farne. “We’re proud of our track record for reducing costs and improving ROI.”[/fusion_text][/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container][fusion_builder_container admin_label=”New Newsletter Signup from Christine” hundred_percent=”yes” hundred_percent_height=”no” hundred_percent_height_scroll=”no” hundred_percent_height_center_content=”yes” equal_height_columns=”yes” menu_anchor=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” status=”published” publish_date=”” class=”” id=”bottomCta” gradient_top_color=”” gradient_bottom_color=”” gradient_type=”vertical” gradient_direction=”0deg” gradient_force=”yes” background_color=”” background_image=”” background_position=”center center” background_repeat=”no-repeat” fade=”no” background_parallax=”none” enable_mobile=”no” parallax_speed=”0.3″ video_mp4=”” video_webm=”” video_ogv=”” video_url=”” video_aspect_ratio=”16:9″ video_loop=”yes” video_mute=”yes” video_preview_image=”” border_size=”” border_color=”” border_style=”solid” margin_top=”” margin_bottom=”” padding_top=”0px” padding_right=”0px” padding_bottom=”0px” padding_left=”0px”][fusion_builder_row][fusion_builder_column type=”1_2″ layout=”1_2″ spacing=”0″ center_content=”no” link=”” target=”_self” min_height=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=”greenBox” gradient_top_color=”” gradient_bottom_color=”” gradient_type=”vertical” gradient_direction=”0deg” gradient_force=”yes” background_color=”” background_image=”” background_position=”left top” undefined=”” background_repeat=”no-repeat” hover_type=”none” border_size=”0″ border_color=”” border_style=”solid” border_position=”all” padding_top=”” padding_right=”” padding_bottom=”” padding_left=”” margin_top=”” margin_bottom=”” animation_type=”” animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_offset=”” last=”no”][fusion_text columns=”” column_min_width=”” column_spacing=”” rule_style=”default” rule_size=”” rule_color=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=””]
