How Strategic HR Solutions Led to a 5x Growth for an IT Company

Running an IT company is never easy. You must manage projects, clients, and employees at the same time. However, things may become chaotic sometimes, especially when the business starts growing. This is exactly what happened with one of our clients. 

One app development company in London faced this exact problem. They wanted better management of their team but had no clear plan. They decided to hire a virtual HR team for managing their day to day tasks. They did not know that this one step would change everything for their business and bring about a lot of positive changes.

The Struggle Before Help

This IT company worked with clients from various countries. Their team was skilled, but the internal system of managing their employees and their tasks was not streamlined. They sometimes missed deadlines and also struggled with communication. They wasted a lot of time on manual HR tasks. Hence, their productivity dropped and morale of the employees also fell.

The founders tried to manage all the HR tasks themselves. They spent hours sorting documents and other related tasks. They handled their payroll manually, which took a significant amount of their time. They scheduled interviews in between client calls. The entire system felt broken.

The company knew they needed help. They searched online for professional HR solutions. That is when they decided to hire a virtual HR team.

Why They Chose a Virtual HR Team

The owners researched different options to find the best virtual assistant for their work. They compared an efficient virtual PA with hiring an office-based virtual assistant. They also considered setting up a virtual assistant office.

Finally, they chose a full time virtual HR team from us to manage the entire HR tasks for their business. They wanted experts who could handle HR tasks completely. They did not want the hassle of hiring a new team, or training them to get them at par with the work needed. They needed experienced professionals who could work remotely.

The First Steps to Change

We started with an audit of the whole working procedure and the core team functionalities. We checked their working processes and the volume of HR functionalities. We studied their team structure and came up with the scope of work to make the whole process more streamlined. We identified gaps and we started working on them.

We noticed they lacked a proper onboarding process. They had no leave management system in place which would make things easier to track. Their payroll system also had some errors which needed immediate addressing.

Our virtual HR team designed a new plan for making the whole process fully functional. We created simple systems to manage daily tasks for their employees as well as the HR team. We introduced automation wherever possible to make things simpler for everyone. We built clear workflows. The team members felt the change quickly. They saw fewer errors. They got faster responses. They felt more supported.

Building a Strong Foundation

The efficient virtual PA from us handled scheduling meetings and other setups. She set up interviews and meetings and made an automated system for everyone to follow. She tracked deadlines and kept everyone updated about that.

The office-based virtual assistant managed the paperwork digitally and made sure that everything was in place. She kept every file organized. She handled contracts and leave applications. Together, they created a smooth process. The management team finally got free time to focus on growth.

With better HR support, the app development agency started hiring the right talent. We helped them attract skilled developers who contributed fully in their new projects. We streamlined the interview process for new onboarding and made it easier for everyone concerned. We made onboarding exciting and simple.

Results that Changed Everything

Within six months, things improved for the IT company in London. Deadlines stopped getting missed as everyone was informed about their upcoming deadlines. Employees became happier as their jobs had better clarity. So, the entire workplace felt better fr all of them.

By the end of the year, their revenue grew. They achieved 5x growth in about 12 months. The founders could not believe the difference. They said the virtual HR team saved the company and helped them grow as a business with higher revenue. Without that change, they might have lost some key clients or could not have grown the way they did with our help.
