Problem

A Fortune 500 CPG company undergoing global ERP transformation lacked unified workforce planning to support multi-country rollouts while retaining critical project talent and maintaining operational continuity.

Action

Catalant Experts established capacity planning models tied to transformation milestones across 15+ countries and partnered across six cross-functional workstreams to drive strategic workforce reviews and talent redeployment.

Results

  • Avoided $2M in redundancies while retaining critical skills
  • Achieved 40% acceleration in time-to-productivity for merged teams
  • Maintained less than 5% regrettable attrition during restructure

PE-Backed Software Integration

A private equity portfolio company restructured operations across 12 acquired companies, focusing on go-to-market, product management, and customer service functions. The initiative contributed to doubling annual revenue from $300M to $600M while reducing costs by $22M.

Manufacturing Facility Closure

A 250-employee manufacturing operation closure was executed over nine months with comprehensive communication planning and employee support programs, resulting in zero turnover, zero safety incidents, and no employment claims during transition.

Clinical Operations Partnership

A global clinical development organization transitioned to a strategic partnership model, rationalizing 80+ clinical trials across vendors. The restructure improved molecule selection, enhanced regulatory expertise, and reduced costs while accelerating cycle times by 25-30%.
