The problem

Dove Nest Group offers a range of business psychology and coaching, team and leadership training and graduate development. The company wanted to streamline processes and move from a paper-based system to a bespoke online software package that would cover everything from client assessments to reporting and invoicing. The software needed to handle assessments for 7,500 people using a range of psychometric tools different levels of competency.

"We needed a robust, scalable web-based piece of software that would handle individual assessments, include interviewers’ comments and then produce an instantaneous report. We asked Meantime to help us build a scoring brain that would pull all this together, do all the crunching and build report for each individual and separate reports for the assessors. And we had to ensure that the software had a methodology and functionality that would stand up to scrutiny from a global blue chip company."

What we did

We developed a piece of software that would enable each individual involved to log in, answer a range of questions and provide an instant report that can be reviewed by assessors and then used to develop the strengths of individual employees and identify areas of weakness. Respondents can use the application from anywhere they have a web connection and secure processing ensures all responses are confidential. As well as being able to cope comfortably with the level of content (with more than 40 competencies being assessed) and number of users required, the design of the software means that Dove Nest is able to take its basic framework and change the content for different clients.
