Challenge
FBNQuest, a prominent financial services institution, was grappling with the complexities of managing performance appraisals for their workforce of over 500 employees. The organisation’s existing approach to performance assessments posed several significant challenges:
- Time-Consuming Process: The system required substantial time for both employees and managers to complete and review appraisals.
- Prone to Errors: Manual data entry and assessment increased the likelihood of errors, which could lead to inaccuracies in performance evaluations and hindered effective decision-making.
- Lack of Scalability: As FBNQuest continued to grow, the existing system struggled to accommodate the increasing number of employees, making it difficult to maintain consistency and quality in performance assessments.

The first step to solving the problem was to review the products needed to achieve success. The products adopted by FBNQuest include:

The implementation of these products was straightforward, and the migration of data was seamless, enabling their HR team to quickly understand the features and optimise their processes.
