Strategic workforce planning
Preparing for the future of work
Having the analysis and insight needed to make the right decisions for your people and organisation is more important than ever as businesses prepare for the workforce of the future and navigate disruptive megatrends, such as demographic changes, technological shifts in how we work and global economic uncertainty.
The PwC Strategic Workforce Planning (SWP) approach is a proactive analysis of current workforce supply and future demand to build required capabilities and capacity to achieve business objectives.
How is Workforce Capacity & Capability changed?
Buy
External resourcing for permanent/ temporary staff or a bought in service
Borrow
Internal secondment or interchange to/from Industry Partners
Bounce
Managing surplus (includes ‘bouncing’) across the whole enterprise
Build
Upskilling the current workforce through development, promotion, performance and talent
Bind
Identification of ‘at risk’ resource and modelling retention initiatives with working assumptions
Blend
Reshaping the requirement to meet available resources
How are you tackling critical workforce challenges?
Strategic Workforce Planning helps organisations to deliver better people decisions, outputs and outcomes
Costs
Do you have control and an understanding of current and future workforce costs?
Technology
How are you helping your people embrace new technology and ensuring a smooth transition from current skills to future requirements?
Adapting to change
Are you able to minimise disruption and ease the adaption to change by understanding complex interdependencies?
Resourcing
Do you understand the workforce needed to achieve business goals and meet diversity and resource targets? Do you have the right resources in the right locations to support growth and future requirements?
Engagement
Do your people feel frustrated by reactive staffing decisions which are affecting their own ability to plan their own lives?
