to deliver shared services integration

Executive search firm Russell Reynolds wanted to modernize their way of working to maximize value to clients while improving employee experience. They established three regional Centers of Excellence (CoE), with the aim to use these to support employees with candidate research and redistribute more basic research work to the newly expanded Shared Services team.

Bizagi was used to move, manage and track the workload of local offices and route it to the CoEs or Shared Services to enable a more efficient way of working. In the first year of using Bizagi, 71,000 hours of data entry work was offloaded to Shared Service, giving Executive Assistants and Researchers up to 30% more time to focus on key areas of business, rather than administrative work. They also automated the candidate background check processes, which previously took 3-4 hours to complete and is now an entirely hands-off process.

We connect a lot of systems together with Bizagi… it’s important to model the process first and then the online platform makes it more user friendly for our customers."
