CASE STUDY: Clyde Marine Recruitment

Contract Preparation - a Case Study with Clyde Marine Recruitment

Clyde Marine Recruitment Ltd (CMR) began using Ankaa Recruiter in March 2020 just days before the Covid-19 Lockdown began. 

The system offers several key benefits: 

  • Data privacy and GDPR compliance throughout the process from candidate registration to sharing profiles.   

  • Ankaa Recruiter provides time-lapsing URLs and one-time password access for clients to review candidate profiles. 

  • The ability to operate a paperless recruitment process, this followed the earlier roll out of Ankaa Marine in CMR which assisted crew management in going paperless, removing the requirement for crew to send multiple emails with large file attachments.  

  • Improved recruitment process and interface for clients and candidates – the roll-out of the new system saw a significant increase of new personnel to the payrolls operated despite the Covid-19 environment 

  • The new candidate mobile app was awarded a 4.4 star rating out of 5 following a survey of our candidates.  

In August 2020 CMR went live with Ankaa Biosync, which automatically produces joiner packs comprising of the Contract, Recommendation To Employ, Joiner Form and Joiner Letter for each candidate. The system automatically selects the appropriate personal data along with the correct contract from the contract library, and binds it with the job vacancy information, such as payrate and joining date, ship, ship owners’ details. The information is available for review and then produces all essential paperwork at the touch of a button. 

CMR Case study - reduces admin by 67%

Historically the admin process to complete the various documents would take our team 40 minutes per candidate. Using Ankaa Biosync we have successfully reduced the process time to less than 13 minutes per candidate, a time saving of over 67%. To put this into a bigger picture using our old system it would take one person 9 days to process 100 candidates. Using Ankaa Biosync we can now process 100 candidates in just 3 days. An incredible amount of time that we can utilise to focus on other areas within the business.  

 

Using Ankaa has helped us to streamline our processes, created a higher level of accountability, increased our productivity and now saved us a significant amount of time in administration. Going digital has been measurably valuable for CMR, and we look forward to shortly embracing peer to peer review of the documentation produced with sign off, time and date stamp which is part of our quality system.
