Streamlining workforce based on proof of data-driven analytics & numbers with Mettl

Automotive Supplier Company, a tier-1 automotive supplier focused on drivelines, powertrains and casting technologies, struggled to efficiently group its large engineering workforce into component, systems and application roles due to unclear behavioural and technical competency data.

Mercer Mettl delivered integrated psychographic and cognitive assessments plus diagnostic reports for managers and employees across a 450‑person rollout, revealing behavioural inclinations and technical aptitudes tied to each role. The Mercer Mettl solution enabled data-driven mapping of engineers into systems, application and component buckets, giving managers actionable recommendations and streamlining workforce allocation based on measurable analytics.
