Case Study: Berkshire Bank achieves HR data preparation in minutes and faster reporting with Altair Knowledge Works (Monarch)

Berkshire Bank HR Analyst Cashes in on Data Prep

Berkshire Bank, a regional financial institution with more than 97 offices and $9.3 billion in assets, faced a growing HR reporting challenge: its data was locked in disparate systems and spreadsheets, and the HR team—responsible for monthly reports on incentives, compensation, talent and audits—spent hours manually reconciling and aggregating information.

HR analyst Mary Anne Christian deployed Altair Monarch to access, blend and reconcile data quickly; what once took four-plus hours now takes about five minutes. The solution enabled repeatable turnover, compensation and talent-management reports and dashboards, improved data accuracy and gave her time to analyze results and present clear, timely insights to senior management.
