Strategic personnel planning with Valsight

Use case: Strategic personnel planning

Better personnel planning: the right skills at the right time

Strategic personnel planning supports you in all matters related to the medium- and long-term development of personnel requirements and manpower.

By simulating different scenarios, strategy-driven and strategy-integrated workforce planning can be optimally mapped. With a driver model tailored to your situation, targets, assumptions and measures are simulated quickly and flexibly – and the effects are immediately visible.

In this way, both the competence requirements of individual company divisions and the effect of further training measures, new hires or the use of external resources are presented quickly and transparently. For a focused discussion on staffing needs and actions.

Build up and expand personnel in a targeted manner

Strategic personnel planning aims to provide the resources required to implement the corporate strategy over the long term. However, the approach often makes it difficult to obtain the really important information and strategically relevant impulses. Discussions are often inefficient and get lost in details.

Valsight provides you with the solution to answer really relevant questions about the evolution of your workforce for the next three to five years and beyond – questions such as:

What are the effects of changes in the business strategy on personnel requirements?

Do we have the right (and enough) personnel for new requirements?

What competencies are needed at what level in what area?

What resources can be used to meet the needs?

Where and when do gaps or overhangs occur and how do you compensate for them?

When does the hiring have to start?

When and how does internal training and personnel development take place?

What are the consequences of investing in software-based automation solutions?

Is the next generation of managers properly positioned?

What are the office needs in (post-pandemic) times?

Transparency about effects

Scenario simulation with Valsight ensures a complete representation of your company in terms of headcount and staffing requirements. A scenario represents the interaction of data (e.g. new hires, terminations, retirements, skills, use of external service providers) as well as assumptions and measures. With our simulation solution, you can easily and flexibly create, analyze and evaluate different scenarios and thereby also visualizations of the future. You can see the effects of the measures conceived under various premises directly at the push of a button, and can consequently flexibly run through them.

Clear picture of tomorrow's personnel requirements

Starting from the current situation, you get an overview of the capabilities of your teams – whether related to teams or departments up to entire divisions. This allows you to identify gaps and evaluate possible effects of measures using different scenarios. The clear picture of future needs provides you with a solid foundation for making decisions about building and expanding your workforce and promotes transparent communication of the resulting skill sets. In addition, decisions around tomorrow’s workplace design requirements can be made better, faster.

Possible fields of application

Long-term competence planning

Valsight enables you to systematically map the competencies of your employees and compare them with current and future requirements. Make the right decisions today to be prepared for the tasks of tomorrow. Discuss staffing needs, including support from external service providers, using understandable workload calculations in various scenarios. In this way, you can optimally prepare your teams for the future world of work and future-proof your company.

Tariff simulation

Valsight enables the detailed simulation of the effects of collective bargaining or wage/salary increases on personnel costs. Different criteria are taken into account for each pay group, such as qualification levels, length of service, and much more. Holiday pay, overtime pay and special payments can also be included easily in the simulation.
