PROJECT INFORMATION

The client is a prominent full-service law firm, with over 700 attorneys across nearly 30 offices in the United States and Europe. Ranked among the top 100 law firms in the United States, their clients span global Fortune 500 companies, mid-sized firms, startups, and high-profile individuals. Their industry standing and expansive operations necessitate advanced, tailored solutions to manage their workforce efficiently.

CHALLENGES

The law firm faced several operational and technical hurdles that hindered its efficiency and scalability:

  • Complex compensation structures: The firm required tailored plans for attorneys, officers, and directors, adding layers of complexity.
  • Varied budget approval workflows: The approval processes lacked standardization and consumed significant time.
  • Individualized work hours: Staff operated on non-standard schedules, necessitating a highly flexible tracking solution.
  • Manual processes: Extensive paperwork and disparate systems created inefficiencies and integration challenges.

RESULTS & IMPACT

Drivestream implemented Oracle HCM Cloud to meet the client’s unique requirements. The solution featured:

  • Tailored compensation models: Multiple compensation plans were designed to address the specific needs of attorneys, officers, and directors.
  • Custom product workarounds: Innovative configurations were developed to accurately map and track non-standard work hours.
  • Streamlined operations: Legacy subsystems were eliminated, and processes were automated using the Oracle HCM Cloud.
  • Online benefits enrollment: The solution transitioned benefits management from manual to digital, enhancing accessibility and accuracy.

The implementation delivered transformative results for the law firm. The tailored compensation plans provided a clear and efficient framework for managing the firm’s diverse workforce. By addressing the complexity of non-standard work hours with a custom tracking solution, the firm achieved greater accuracy in time management and reporting.

Automation of previously manual processes significantly reduced administrative workloads, enhancing operational efficiency. The introduction of an online benefits enrollment platform provided employees with a user-friendly interface and reduced processing errors. Collectively, these improvements positioned the firm to focus on strategic growth while maintaining operational excellence.
