Workforce Transformation Consulting

Workforce transformation consulting redesigns an organization's roles and skills when its strategy, technology, or operating model changes. The work answers four questions: which roles change, which skills the new roles require, who can move into them, and how the organization supports people through the transition. BD Emerson delivers this work with our Andersen Consulting colleagues at Daniels Consulting Group, a firm of organizational psychologists and experienced business professionals whose services include talent management, change management, and leadership development. An engagement covers workforce impact analysis, role and skill redesign, talent assessment against future roles, reskilling and workforce transition plans, retention of critical people, and manager enablement. Typical triggers are a new strategy, a move to shared services, a major system implementation, a merger, or the adoption of AI in daily work.
We map current roles against the future strategy, process, and structure, and we size the change for each group. Leaders start with a shared, role-level view of who is affected and how.
We write future role profiles with business leaders and HR, and we define the skills each role requires. The profiles become the standard for assessment, hiring, and development.
Employees are assessed against the future roles, and the results feed selection decisions, reskilling plans, and retention actions. Each affected group gets a transition plan with a named owner.
Managers receive briefings, conversation guides, and coaching before announcements. We track role fill, skill attainment, and retention of critical people, and we report them to the executive sponsor.

Speak with BD Emerson and Daniels Consulting Group about the roles that will change, the skills you will need, and the people who can move into them.

Daniels Consulting Group's organizational psychologists lead role design and talent assessment. Decisions about who moves into which role rest on structured evidence about skills and potential, gathered the same way for every employee.

Role profiles are written from the future process, structure, and technology. Each profile states the decisions the role owns, so the workforce design and the operating model stay consistent.

Workforce change usually follows a system implementation, an AI program, or a merger. BD Emerson runs those programs, so the workforce plan shares milestones with the work that makes it necessary.

We had a hard time finding the right company to partner with in support of our compliance journey. Some vendors sell the idea that they do the work, but then you end up doing everything. The ambiguity is what killed our last project. BD Emerson’s team has such great technical knowledge and understands the standard so well that they made us comfortable with moving fast. This has led to us closing major enterprise customers that were previously out of reach because of security and compliance.

The internal audit they conducted was so detailed that even the external auditors called it out. Achieving ISO 27001 with zero nonconformities says everything you need to know about the quality of the partnership.
