a major audit practice cuts forecast variance to below 0.5% with Dayshape

One of the world's largest audit practices, a Big Four firm, faced significant challenges with its operating model due to rapid growth, fee compression, and disconnected systems. This led to low profitability on many engagements and high staff attrition. The firm turned to Dayshape and its AI-powered platform, Dayshape Advise, to transform its workforce planning and allocation.

Dayshape implemented a unified resource management platform that connected workforce planning, scheduling, and financial performance data. The solution provided real-time visibility and AI-generated allocation recommendations. The results included forecast variance dropping to below 0.5%, a significant improvement in profitability within the year, and a reduction in staff attrition from 17-18% to 12%. Dayshape's AI enabled the firm to scale its resource management capability and embed it at the core of its operations.
