The default values are typical for a mid-sized, full-service USA law firm.

Smarter & Fairer People Decisions: What's The Real Cost?

Uncover the hidden costs of building interactive people data dashboards in-house +

In law firms, people are not only the largest cost, but the main revenue-generator too. It's critical that firms have access to great data about their people, and can use it to make decisions with impact.

But usable data is often hard to come by. Data is messy and sits across many different teams. HR systems of record like Workday or SAP SuccessFactors, for example, only tell part of the story.

To be usable by different stakeholders HR data needs to:

✓ be fully integrated with other systems like finance, performance and payroll.

✓ have appropriate and consistent definitions and calculations

✓ be made available through understandable and actionable analyses

Many people underestimate the scale of this challenge. Use our calculator to size the potential cost savings of POD against the cost of building an equivalent system in-house.

Get unwanted high attrition rates among attorneys under control +

POD helps you pinpoint where your attrition issues are most acute and provides the analysis needed to take meaningful action. The cost of just one Associate leaving can be expensive. Use the calculator below to estimate potential lost revenues from unfilled associate roles.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI): The Value of Getting It Right

What is the business case associated with achieving, sustaining and proving excellence in DEI?

Don't drop points for DEI on competitive procurements +

When companies review their panels of legal services providers, Requests for Proposal (RFPs) now regularly contain questions about diversity. These can carry a small weighting, typically 2-4% of the total score.

How are these points awarded? Pirical research has found firms receiving full points:

✓ stand among the best for key metrics like gender in partnership against direct competitors

✓ and have a compelling, data-informed plan for improvement

For firms involved in these competitive processes, the revenue opportunity of getting diversity right is therefore substantial.

Save 90% of the time spent filling out diversity surveys +

DEI teams at law firms are spending an increasing amount of time filling out diversity surveys. From requests from clients to third party benchmarking, the number of surveys that need completing each year can easily rise into the hundreds for a large firm and be an incredibly time-consuming task.

POD helps DEI professionals complete the most common diversity data requests in just a few clicks. Customers report our Survey Filler Tool saves them 90% of the time spent gathering data and filling out surveys.

We'd love to develop a custom Value Plan for your firm.

This will provide a good estimation of the return on investment you can expect from POD, as well as to make sure we are planning for the outcomes you need during implementation.
