挑战
Experian faced several challenges in implementing a people analytics solution. Firstly, they needed to address the workforce data needs of leaders and translate potential value into terms that leaders care about. Secondly, they had to define key metrics and attain global alignment on definitions. Thirdly, engaging HR business partners as business champions and keeping them engaged was crucial. Lastly, they needed to combine data sources from multiple systems and remove the reliance on static lists of data and Excel-based analytics tools. Despite being an analytics company, getting buy-in for a people analytics solution required extensive pre-work to show how workforce analytics could address workforce issues. Sales leaders, in particular, wanted better insights about their employees, and turnover reduction was a significant concern for business leaders.

解决方案
Experian's journey towards implementing a people analytics solution began with extensive groundwork. Olly Britnell, Head of Global Workforce Analytics, and his team reviewed and streamlined all the data in the company’s management information systems. They mapped the company’s people strategy to its overall business strategy and established a set of 15 to 20 workforce metrics key to the people strategy. The team then worked to get global alignment on these metrics by holding workshops with global HR teams. They built a dashboard of workforce insights for HR leaders and business partners and rolled it out. The analytics team also engaged HR business partners to act as champions for the analytics solution. These champions participated in early pilots and promoted the value of data-driven insights within their regions. Experian chose Visier as their people analytics solution due to its out-of-the-box content and ease of setup. The analytics team conducted a big-bang rollout, providing 400 global HR employees access to Visier simultaneously. They focused on awareness, training, and embedding the solution into daily activities to ensure adoption.

Darwin Ecosystem: Accelerating discovery and insight through cutting-edge big data and cognitive technologies
Darwin Ecosystem was founded with a unique vision of harnessing chaos theory mathematics to uncover previously hidden connections in unstructured data. The company’s algorithms can look at all the data generated by any source (such as news, RSS feeds and Twitter), and analyze how a specific set of concepts within that data are evolving over time. This is particularly valuable in situations such as business and competitive intelligence, social research, brand monitoring, legal discovery, risk mitigation and even law enforcement. A common problem in these areas is that a regular web search will only turn up the all-time most popular answers to a given question – but what the expert researcher is actually interested in is the moment-tomoment evolution of the data available on that topic. Darwin’s algorithm is computationally intensive, and the sources of data it correlates can be vast. To bring its benefits to a larger commercial audience, Darwin needed to find a way to make it scale.

Delivering modern data protection with cloud scale backup from Cobalt Iron and IBM
Organizations are struggling to modernize their legacy data protection environments in the face of growing demands around new infrastructure, new applications, and budget consolidation. Virtualization and modern application development processes have significantly outgrown legacy backup architectures. In response, infrastructure teams have created multiple backup solution types to handle the varying SLAs (performance, scale, cost) required by their business sponsors. However, the sheer number and variety of solutions in this uncontrolled expansion creates huge amounts of work, threatening to overwhelm the IT team in many organizations. Today, developers may add new applications and virtual server instances by the hundreds per day without accounting for the restrictions of the existing backup infrastructure. They leverage the cloud for immediate compute and storage resources, yet rarely communicate succinctly with corporate IT to ensure that the appropriate data protection services are in place.
