The Challenge: Inefficient Resource Allocation

TRG prides itself on consistently excellent standards of service to its clients, but COO Jean Mae Quimada doesn’t believe in standing still.

Quimada’s philosophy of continual improvement was hampered by the challenges of managing a remote team. She was operating within a complex fast-paced, multi-project ecosystem – and all without the vital data needed to make the best resourcing decisions.

The demands of success made it imperative that each project was properly resourced for each client, but TRG had only limited success with costly workforce tracking solutions. It was difficult to find out how remote staff were spending their time, and whether current work processes were as effective as they should be.

This made effective project resourcing more guesswork than data-driven decision making, frustrating attempts to optimize resources and boost productivity.

Inability To Identify Wasted Resources

  • Lack of visibility into workforce time allocation.
  • Unable to assess effectiveness of processes.
  • Difficulty in right-sizing project resourcing.
  • Spending time and money on multiple activity management tools.
  • Difficulty managing productivity of remote workforce.

Using Refreshingly Clear Data to Get Resourcing Right


Quimada knew that accurate data was key, but TRG’s unique workflows had not been effectively supported  by workforce solutions, such as Hubstaff and Activtrak, which lacked flexibility and functionality. To handle what other platforms couldn’t, Insightful developed idle time and engagement level analysis capabilities especially for TRG, which, alongside comprehensive analytics, revealed the full picture.

Insightful’s user-friendly dashboard showed TRG the reality of each project’s resourcing. What it revealed changed everything.

TRG’s Gateway to Right-Sizing


As TRG discovered how remote staff spent their time, it became clear that employee utilization was massively uneven, with some projects significantly overstaffed. Insightful’s activity reports also revealed the extent of low value activities and the existence of numerous process bottlenecks.

This empowered TRG to create more lean and agile project teams, improving how employees were allocated, and even identifying training needs to enable staff to upskill and further streamline processes. 

The results speak for themselves: in just 6 months, TRG was able to optimize workloads to make the company 76% more productive.

“What made Insightful different was their flexibility: they created a platform that exactly met our business needs, making it easy for us to make informed resourcing decisions that skyrocketed our productivity and profitability.“
