Fincon Reply supports savings banks in accurately assessing their current staffing needs and planning ahead for future requirements. PARES Kompakt identifies potential efficiency gains; PARES Next defines a vision for the organisation of tomorrow.
PARES Kompakt clarifies today's staffing needs. PARES Next looks ahead to the work of tomorrow.
Future-proof your workforce planning today
Demographic change and the shortage of skilled workers complicate the filling of positions, while cost pressure demands an economic use of existing capacities. At the same time, digitalization, AI, regulatory requirements, and new customer expectations are changing the tasks across savings banks.
Personnel decisions often take years to have their full effect. Boards and executives therefore need a clear understanding of current staffing requirements across the organisation – as well as the roles, skills and capacity their savings bank will require in the future.
From the current state to the target operating model for your savings bank
PARES Kompakt applies the DSGV methodology “Analysing processes, managing resources”. We analyse the current staffing structure, benchmark the results against comparable savings banks and identify areas for action at both departmental and institution-wide level. The outcome is a target staffing assessment that provides a basis for management and resource planning. Executives, the staff council and employees are closely involved throughout the process.
PARES Next
PARES Next builds on this foundation by adding a strategic, forward-looking perspective. The four service modules show which additional services are included in developing the future target operating model.
Six phases towards proactive workforce planning
Both offerings follow the same process structure.
PARES Kompakt comprises five phases, while PARES Next adds a sixth phase after the current-state assessment to define the furture target operating model.
