Case Study - aQayo
Through their offices in Australia and Thailand, one of the region’s leading multidiscipline engineering and project delivery contractors serve their customers in the Oil Refining, Oil & Gas Processing, Petrochemicals, chemicals, Mineral Processing, Alternative Fuels and Clean Coal sectors.
The branch in Australia employs over 400 personnel, covering engineering, project management, project controls, procurement, finance and accounting, administration, marketing, and general management in its head office in West Melbourne and branch offices in Brisbane and Perth.
Recruitment challenges:
Before implementing aQayo’s online hiring management solution, this company received a multitude of resumes from interested candidates from all over the world. The company’s recruiting efforts were 100% paper-based. At the time, their recruiters spent roughly 2/3 of their recruitment time sifting through stacks of paper resumes to identify qualified candidates while depending on Excel to track candidates and report essential information.
Their challenge was to close the gap between the talent currently in place and the talent needed to effectively execute on the global business plan.
Management eventually decided to use aQayo’s automated Performance and Talent Management system to provide better visibility into the skills and competencies of their employee’s and to easily identify performers and underperformers across a geographically dispersed workforce.
The company's goal was to process and provide clear objectives for the matrix-based company and to update its performance review system which relied on an ineffective process of emailing documents back and forth between employees.
Why aQayo?
aQayo was chosen because it provided the tools to synchronize the goals and culture of all its remote offices in Australia and establish a clear, efficient compensation and review system. aQayo on-demand platform made companywide implementation across all different offices easy. aQayo’s on-demand solution provided a swift time to global implementation and rollout. Its customer service philosophy demonstrated commitment and a partner mentality. Subscription pricing and easy scalability made aQayo an attractive option.
This web based software tool allows the organization to create and content-manage a completely customizable and automated recruitment website as it could be easily plugged into an existing corporate website.
Users can quickly and easily post jobs to their company website, using different rules for internal and external recruitment, and manage candidates through the dual processes.

“We have one office in Thailand with 350+ employees and an office in Australia with 400+ employees. Both offices are supported by the same IT tools and software. aQayo web-based model therefore makes the most sense for us: people can access the information on candidates at any time and from any place.
aQayo helps us address our global recruitment challenges by making the same information available to the two offices.”
