Consulting Firm Needs to Identify, Locate, and Engage Remote Workers

Client

A global strategy unit at a ‘Big 4’ consulting and professional services firm, with team members in multiple offices servicing internal partners in locations around the world on behalf of a wide ranging group of industry and investment organizations.

Pain Points

  • Improving collaboration across locations and business units
  • Better leveraging the existing knowledge resources within the firm, identifying gaps in knowledge services, and effectively addressing those needs in a centralized location
  • Aligning incentives to promote cross-business engagement
  • Identifying and deploying internal talent, knowledge, and expertise more effectively on behalf of clients
  • Having a measurable and efficient mechanism to identify external expertise and knowledge gaps

Sample Challenge

The international consulting firm needs a tool to identify, locate, and engage remote workers to gather knowledge and expertise, while turning to outside experts/consultants only when internal knowledge gaps emerge.

Solution

By implementing Enquire’s enterprise software for knowledge management and discovery, the client will be able to create a streamlined model for identifying internal employees with specific knowledge and to optimize the knowledge management process within their organization. Our technology will allow consultants within the firm to collaborate with each other on proposal writing and project implementation across office locations, enabling teams to ask specific questions and receive real-time insights with no additional cost. In addition, consultants will have a seamless “off ramp” to external experts to fill knowledge gaps.
