Addressing the changing needs brought on by COVID-19 and the new normal

Catalyzed in part by hiring freezes and worker furloughs during the COVID-19 pandemic and ongoing discussions about returning to the workplace, businesses are starting to look more strategically at headcount and workforce planning. A lack of clarity around skills gaps, and operational frictions exacerbated by the pandemic, are butting up against an increasing need for data literacy in HR skill sets. This is creating a unique market opportunity for planning software vendors to support the HR function and its duties more effectively.

  • Widening the lens through which customers can view planning use cases
  • Extending planning ownership in HR to truly support the future of work
