For decades, workforce consulting has followed a well-worn path—executive teams hire external consultants, undergo weeks (if not months) of analysis, and receive thick reports filled with insights that, more often than not, become outdated before they’re even implemented.
But what if there was a better way?
What if organisations could gain the same level of strategic workforce intelligence in minutes, without the bloated costs, extended timelines, and subjective biases of traditional consulting?
This is where Skillsize AI comes in—a workforce consultant powered by AI, delivering real-time, data-driven insights to help businesses make informed decisions 98% faster and at 90% lower cost than traditional consulting firms.
Let’s break down how Skillsize AI outperforms traditional workforce consulting, with real-world numbers that show why it’s the future of workforce strategy.
The Consulting Problem: Costly, Slow, and Outdated Before It’s Actionable
1️⃣ Time to Insights: Weeks vs. Minutes
A workforce consulting project with a top-tier firm takes between 6-12 weeks to complete. Here’s what that looks like in practice:
- 1-2 weeks: Data collection (interviews, surveys, and manual analysis).
- 3-6 weeks: Consultants process findings, benchmark against competitors, and draft recommendations.
- 2-4 weeks: Stakeholder discussions, presentation of findings, and strategy alignment.
By the time recommendations are presented, organisational needs may have already shifted—rendering the insights partially outdated or less relevant.
🔹 With Skillsize AI → Workforce data is analysed instantly.
🔹 Time to insights? Minutes instead of months.
2️⃣ Cost: 10x Cheaper Than Traditional Consulting
A top consulting firm charges anywhere between £100K to £500K per engagement, with no guarantee of success.
Let’s break it down:
- A McKinsey or BCG workforce strategy project? £250K+ per engagement.
- Mid-tier consulting firms? £50K - £150K per project.
- Continuous workforce monitoring? Not included. Additional fees apply.
💡 Skillsize AI operates at a fraction of the cost, providing real-time, ongoing workforce intelligence—for less than the cost of a single consultant’s salary.
3️⃣ Scalability: Traditional Consulting Can't Keep Up
Traditional workforce consulting isn't scalable—firms rely on human expertise, manual analysis, and consultant bandwidth. They can only work with a limited number of clients at a time.
🔹 With Skillsize AI → It scales to 100,000+ employees instantly.
🔹 Faster decision-making across large, complex organisations.
No bottlenecks. No waiting lists. No consultant availability issues.
The Skillsize AI Advantage: Data-Driven, Real-Time, and Unbiased
Unlike traditional consulting, Skillsize AI doesn’t rely on human intuition, biased surveys, or outdated benchmarks.
Instead, it leverages quantifiable workforce data—from CVs, LinkedIn profiles, skills databases, and organisational trends—to provide:
✅ Workforce Diagnostics: Real-time skills gap analysis, workforce efficiency tracking, and capability benchmarking.
✅ Automation Impact Analysis: Identifies roles that can be automated, augmented, or optimised for AI-driven transformation.
✅ Strategic Workforce Planning: Scenario modelling for recruitment, upskilling, and internal mobility decisions.
✅ Succession Planning & Talent Mapping: AI-driven leadership potential assessments with future-readiness scoring.
Key Metrics: The Proof Is in the Numbers
🔹 Skillsize AI is not just a tool—it’s a game-changer.
Why This Matters for CEOs, HR Leaders, and Private Equity Firms
The ability to analyse workforce capabilities in real-time is no longer a competitive advantage—it’s a necessity.
- For HR Leaders → No more relying on expensive consulting firms for workforce restructuring plans.
- For Private Equity Firms → Gain instant workforce due diligence insights when evaluating acquisitions.
- For CEOs & CFOs → Understand where to optimise workforce spend and drive efficiency.
Every organisation that invests in workforce intelligence today will outperform those stuck in the traditional consulting model.
