Electronic Data Systems (EDS)

Challenge

To negotiate salary rates for individual candidates, as well as with the staffing agencies and suppliers. EDS researched tools that would help them understand fluctuating markets and salaries in order to better strategize and negotiate.

Solution

The People Ticker in the US, UK and India eliminated EDS’s reliance on outdated survey data. The People Ticker tracks professionals coming on and off the job market, taking into account the effect of supply and demand and how it impacts salary expectations in the marketplace.

Benefits

The People Ticker gives EDS centralized control of negotiation/retention strategy, reducing overhead while delivering up-to-date compensation data and analysis
