Temporis, France's leading 100% franchised temporary employment and recruitment network, relies on AGT's management tools to draw up its budgets and monthly reports, as well as to analyze the sales activity of each branch.
Temporis federates a national network of around one hundred franchised temporary employment agencies in a sector dominated by large groups with 59% market share. In this fiercely competitive environment, a strategy based on financial and business management is essential if you want to succeed. The network understands this, and supports its franchisees with rigorous monthly and weekly monitoring, equipping them with tools, indicators and services. The network's strength lies in creating value through service to franchisees.
With its specific modules developed for Temporis, AGT Retail offers key indicators for precise management of the entire network, which has proved its worth. Despite the slowdown in the temporary employment market, Temporis continues to grow and innovate, offering a tailor-made service to its franchisees.
In 2004, Temporis abandoned its traditional Excel files in favor of the Infogestion business intelligence solution, a former version of the AGT retail solution. In 2012, the network migrated to AGT Retail, a management, animation and benchmarking platform dedicated to retail and service networks, accessible in saas mode.
Sandra Louit, Finance Manager at Temporis, comments: "We quickly realized that we needed a tool to keep us on track. AGT Retail proved to be the right solution, particularly for our primary needs: the annual budget, weekly and monthly situations for each branch, and the management of access rights to our data.
Tailor-made tools for the temporary work industry
Sandra Louit, Finance Manager at Temporis, looks at the specific needs of the network that AGT Retail meets: "Our temporary employment agency business imposes specific constraints. On the one hand, we need to guarantee the history of our workforce in order to comply with complex social security legislation. We need to have an infallible memory of staff numbers in the event of URSSAF checks, and of agency results, and we need to do so in complete security, as the data is sensitive." She adds: "In addition , Temporis has negotiated national referencing agreements with major groups, which require specific reporting, all needs for which AGT Retail has been able to respond effectively".
A unique approach in the world of franchising: A service-oriented approach to franchisees
Agencies transmit their weekly sales figures directly into the tool, while balance sheets are automatically uploaded and monthly balances imported and reprocessed by the Management Control department. Consolidated and analyzed by the head office, this data is used to provide franchisees with monthly and weekly reports, including anonymous branch benchmarking.
Sandra Louit, Finance Manager, comments: " These simple indicators, such as sales, margins and earnings, enable each branch to situate itself. Graphical and intuitive, AGT Retail has enabled us to educate our franchisees, not all of whom are accustomed to management, and provides a unified level of analysis, the aim of which is to pull each one upwards. This creates a healthy sense of emulation and motivates us to perform on a commercial level.In fact, network coordinators use this data to propose action plans".
The head office's management controllers produce verticalized management monitoring specific to the temporary employment market. Sandra Louit continues: "This monitoring enables us to identify agencies in need of support. During thecourse of the year, we can offer them a revised budget that is as close as possible to reality, and all the help they need to return to better results ".
" Our franchisees have understood the usefulness of the solution and have seized it. Thanks to AGT's decision-making tools, Temporis is now a network that relies 100% on high-performance management control, with a service offering to franchisees that is rarely matched, which is atypical in the franchise world."
We don' t want to stop there, " she continues, "we're planning to integrate AGT retail's Dashboard module to encourage each franchisee to monitor their own selection of key indicators. At head office, we're delighted with the consolidation and benchmarking functions, the way the tool is adapted to the specificities of our business, and the responsiveness of our contacts ".
