    “One Model is our choice for not only a data warehouse, but the partner to take that data and make it usable for the maturing HR function inside the company,” says Ryan Hammond, after enlisting One Model to help him mature Pure Storage’s People Analytics Program.
    The Challenge

    Siloed data stuck in spreadsheets

    "Pure Storage wanted to understand the sourcing channels of their most successful sales representatives and evaluate whether the channels they believed produced top sales representative were actually effective. To do this, the team needed data from Greenhouse (their applicant tracking system), Workday (their HRIS), and additional platforms used by sales."

    "Prior to partnering with One Model, Pure Storage's team had limited access to the data needed for People Analytics. As their HR function matured, they recognized it was time to upgrade from spreadsheets to systems that could support their growth."

    "Pure Storage had reached a point of maturity and was ready to quickly build out their People Analytics infrastructure. After evaluating the time and resources required to complete this project internally, they chose One Model as a trusted partner to provide data warehouse services and deliver a robust workforce analytics platform."

    The Solution

    A scalable people analytics solution

    "One Model’s platform enables customers to quickly and efficiently import multiple data sources into one open sourced, cloud-based platform. Within a week of accessing Pure Storage’s data and systems, One Model provided their HR team a suite of dashboards and analytics across core systems with supported APIs."

    "With this setup, Pure Storage’s team could extract and analyze data to pinpoint where their most effective sales talent was coming from. More importantly, the analysis revealed that some assumptions about sales talent weren't accurate. This insight allowed Pure Storage’s team to refocus on their sales hiring processes, resulting in a more diverse candidate pipeline and representatives who reamped up faster."

    "By opening up data in Workday and Greenhouse, Pure Storage integrated it with other sources, such as Glint and Tableau. This enabled HR to make more informed, data-driven decisions and customize how insights were delivered across the organization."

    "A single source of truth pulling in data from all their existing HR systems fosters trust in analytics results."

    The Results

    Insights that support business expansion

    "Pure Storage, which surpassed $1B in annual revenue in 2018, now stands at almost 2,500 employees. By investing in One Model rather than completing their in-house project, Pure Storage saved years of team time and several hundred thousand dollars, reallocated toward further expansion of their People Analytics program.

    "Since reporting under 100 employees in 2012, Pure Storage has been in accelerated growth mode. Now, they are equipped with a platform that not only sustains this growth but fully supports updated HR systems and processes."

    "Ryan noted, “What’s great with our One Model system is that once we come up with an insight, we can then go back and put into the system markers and data that allows us to monitor and track the change in behavior in hiring over time so we can ensure there is an impact to the business. Our goal was to build an analytics infrastructure that typically takes companies five years to achieve—and we wanted to do it in one. That’s the type of power you get with a team like One Model, building out an infrastructure that once required entire teams."
