How we unified IT and HR Systems at scale for L&T Hydrocarbon Engineering

L&T’s Shared Services Centre handles payroll for L&T’s 50,000 employees, covering 7 separate ODs and 37 subsidiary and associate companies. They were looking for an automated solution that would streamline onboarding for new LTHE employees across multiple locations.

The Challenge

Manual processes

LTHE’s entire onboarding process was manual. They were onboarding 1000 employees per year, for roles ranging from General Managers to Electrical Engineers to Senior Designers across business verticals. While being tedious, repetitive and time consuming, it left too much room for human error.

Fragmented data

Since Shared Services was hiring for separate business verticals and job roles, they had too many different types of Employee Application forms. Their data capture process was fragmented, often done manually by the recruiter who filled them after conducting a long drawn out Q&A session.

Multiple tools

Integrating their HR Management Systems and tools was multi-layered, messy and problematic. This meant mindless and repetitive ‘busy work’ for HR.

Too many blind spots

With thousands of employees across far flung project locations, the HR team was looking for a way to collect feedback from their workforce throughout the employee journey, from pre-boarding to 90 days after onboarding.

This helps save immense amounts of time and effort.

Gamified and mobile first

Through gamified feedback forms and personalized, mobile-first content, employees receive information via their mobile phones.

Employee Experience

LTHE now has a two-way communication channel with their employees through which they deliver timely content and Pulse Surveys. With Tydy's proprietary campaign technology, they gather feedback at various important touch points such as interview feedback on offer acceptance, Day 1 feedback, Week 1 feedback, asset allocation feedback, etc.
