Using Workforce Software To Analyze Competitors
Workforce intelligence software helps you understand companies by collecting workforce data and compiling it into easy-to-read reports. Using data from multiple sources, Revelio Labs can analyze information about your competitors so you can determine where to allocate resources in your business. If you want access to over a decade of data so you can understand your competitors and what is driving their success, Revelio Labs may be exactly what you need.
What Can Workforce Intelligence Software Tell You About Your Competitors?
Workforce intelligence software collects information from multiple sources to create a comprehensive snapshot of a company. The information that you can get from workforce intelligence software includes:
Composition
Workforce intelligence software can tell you the composition of competing companies. Reports from Revelio Labs can show a company's job categories and what percentage of their workforce falls into each category. This information can help you identify where your company may have a competitive advantage or what type of professionals you may need more of in your workforce. Our reports can also show you the geographical composition of the company, as well as data on gender and ethnicity.
Revenue
Revelio Labs can also track major companies' worldwide revenue. Even more helpful than knowing a company's net worth is understanding how the business achieved its growth and success. By determining when other companies are breaking into new markets and when they offshore and outsource, you can accurately track what is bringing your competitor's success and how you can create similar results.
Trajectory
Workforce intelligence can let you know your competitors' current trajectories. If you are not satisfied with the trajectory of your business, you can analyze the actions of other companies that are having desirable results. You can use this information as a guide to improve the course of your business.
Attrition and Hiring Trends
Our analytics can also tell a company's hiring and attrition trends. A higher attrition rate may be indicative of unsatisfied employees. Unsatisfactory salaries, benefits, or company culture can lead to an employee leaving a company. Knowing your competitor's attrition and hiring trends gives you a bar to measure against when examining your company. It can also be helpful to note who your competitors are hiring and when they start hiring. Noticing these trends, and whether they are bringing positive results, can help shape your hiring strategy.
Employee Skills
Detailed reports from workforce intelligence software can also give you the top skills of a company's workforce. If you are impressed with your competitor's recent success and trajectory, compare the top skills of their workforce to yours. Doing so can help you recognize the type of employees to hire or help you identify skills that you may need to train current employees on.
Average Salary
Higher salaries and better benefits often lead to a more robust company culture. A healthier culture can also help increase retention. Understanding the average salaries for employees with the skillset you are after lets you know if you are offering enough to new hires. Offering a higher wage can give you a competitive edge. If you cannot afford to pay an average salary, you can begin strategizing other benefits to provide employees with instead.
