Case Study: MB Century achieves operational efficiency and regulatory compliance with Ascender

An International Benchmark for Performance and Competency Management

MB Century, an international geothermal and energy services company headquartered in Taupo with more than 200 staff worldwide, was struggling with multiple paper-based systems, poor reporting and growing regulatory/compliance risk. After an international search MB Century selected Ascender and implemented Ascender’s integrated Performance and Learning Management solution, including the Position Description handler and Competency Management modules.

Ascender delivered an online, integrated human capital platform (PeopleStreme modules such as Performance Management, Learning Management, Competency Manager, Position Description and Strategy Alignment) that consolidated disparate databases into a single source of truth. The solution provided 24/7 access, clearer reporting and regulatory compliance, registered over 200 users, and—according to MB Century’s CEO—has put the company 18–24 months ahead of competitors while driving operational efficiencies and measurable cost savings through reduced administrative effort.
