SThree Group accelerates back office handling with FinancialForce
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Improved mobile timesheet experience for SThree's 9,000+ contractors and end
clients
LONDON, May 17, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FinancialForce, the leading cloud ERP
vendor on the Salesforce platform, today announced that the SThree Group, a
global staffing organisation providing specialist services in the STEM
industries, is improving its customer service and speeding up its back office
processes with FinancialForce PSA and HCM applications.
Headquartered in London, UK, SThree plc employs more than 2,600 people in 15
countries and has an annual revenue in excess of £959 million. SThree operates a
family of ten brands with its four main brands being Computer Futures, Huxley,
Progressive Recruitment, and Real Staffing. The growing multi-brand, multi-
sector model of SThree and the increased global growth rate of contractors and
placements saw the need for an improved system that improved the customer
experience and kept pace with these demands.
The SThree Group's cloud strategy is focused around the Salesforce platform,
which helps it innovate and evolve faster than ever before. It uses Force.com to
consolidate and manage its client, vacancy, candidate, and placement data. This
helps maintain leadership in a highly competitive market and SThree was looking
for a strategic partner on the same platform to improve its back office.
The addition of FinancialForce applications make its employed contractor model
more efficient and scalable. An improved mobile timesheet experience for its
growing group of 9,000 plus external contractors alone will make a huge
difference to their experience and interactions with SThree as it continues to
grow internationally.
FinancialForce HCM helps the SThree Group address regional variations in the way
it manages the payroll of contractors. The new apps provide more flexibility and
enable the SThree Group to do this with ease.
Lance Fisher, CIO, SThree comments, "We've seen the speed at which we can run
our business increase with our use of Force.com. Having to continuously piece
together data across different systems, different geographies, and different
business brands was challenging. We chose FinancialForce as part of the
Salesforce 'plug in roadmap' and look forward to working closely together to
enhance our cloud strategy and expand it across more of our business processes,
in turn enhancing customer service delivery. We will increase satisfaction for
both our people and our clients ensuring we remain competitive as we continue
our goal to have the leading specialist STEM recruitment brands in the markets
in which we participate."
Fred Studer, CMO at FinancialForce adds, "Speed is the new currency for
businesses across the world. With the right cloud technology it is now easier
than ever before to offer services as a global business. We're looking forward
to helping the SThree Group continue its global expansion drive as it now takes
full advantage of a one-platform strategy to thrive at speed while offering
exceptional customer service, which is improving all the time. Customer demands
across all industries, including recruitment, are higher than ever before and
loyalty lower so the quality of service offered is crucial to retain success in
a competitive market."
