Market Intelligence

Our knowledge of company organizations and the skills developed through head hunting and selection activities allow us to offer our Clients customized organizational benchmarking and talent mapping services.

This service is aimed at Clients who wish to compare themselves with their reference market and competitors regarding business models and organizational trends.

We define with the Client the objective of the survey, the target list of competitor companies and the company areas/functions to be investigated. We provide a detailed analysis of the competitors’ organization, adopted business model, main business processes, key figures in the organization, and tools used for business management.

The organizational benchmark is a useful tool for Company Management to evaluate organizational changes based on new or consolidated successful models. Having up-to-date organizational information on competitors allows for a better understanding of ongoing competitive dynamics, one’s market position, possible growth strategies, and making decisions accordingly.

Talent Mapping is a strategic tool for Clients who wish to plan the growth and evolution of their company with foresight. Through Talent Mapping, companies can anticipate organizational needs and make decisions to attract and retain the best resources.

Our talent mapping service aims to identify the best professionals in the market for a specific company role and is always tailored to the Client’s specific needs. The type and level of information contained in the mapping are agreed upon with the Client on a case-by-case basis, depending on the objectives.In general, it may include the following information regarding target candidates:

• education and professional experience (name, educational background, companies and roles held),
• developed skills,
• compensation package (job classification, salary, benefits),
• motivation to consider a job change,
• professional expectations.

Thanks to the Kennedy Executive international network, we are able to carry out Talent Mapping projects at a global level, collaborating with our colleagues in different countries.

The Compensation Benchmark is a useful tool for Company Management wishing to verify and evaluate the consistency of their compensation policies.Particularly for “key figures” in the company, through a comparison with the compensation policies of similar companies.This analysis allows companies to:

• adjust company salary structures to the market,
• improve internal equity,
• integrate compensation policies with company objectives,
• retain key figures for the organization.

In order to provide the Client with a market benchmark regarding compensation levels for positions of interest, our methodology involves collecting the necessary information to frame the Client company, evaluate the weight of positions, and identify the main requirements of the position holders subject to analysis.

The reference compensation ranges provided for different professional profiles take into account the information collected and are derived from compensation surveys and data gathered by VIR HR in its research and selection activities.
