Success story
PRS for Music was formed to enable businesses and consumers of music to get access to some of the world’s best-loved music, while making sure that songwriters, composers and publishers are rightfully rewarded.
What was the challenge?
- To replace the existing paper-based performance appraisal process with a bespoke on-line system that would support their forced distribution appraisal process
- To replicate their specific performance appraisal forms complete with objective setting, competency assessment and performance measurement
- To gather management information to highlight the effectiveness of the forced distribution mechanism, report on individual performance and pinpoint wider training requirements and career aspirations.
What did we do?
- Implemented a web-based system which incorporated all of PRS for Music's highly tailored performance appraisal forms, workflow requirements and reporting needs to monitor completion rates and provide management data
- Established competency assessment as part of the appraisal process with integrated 360 degree feedback
- Bowland’s HR expertise, coupled with their in-house software development skills, helped PRS for Music introduce forced distribution without the usual enormous administration burden. An efficient and streamlined process.
What was the result?
- High levels of buy-in and completion rates among employees
- Learning & Development use management reports to identify training needs across different demographic groups I.e. role, department, location, etc
- PRS for Music now works to a highly structured process incorporating an online scoring and weighting system aligned to employees’ objectives and values, all resulting in personal development plans.
