The company, in search of a consulting company with the resources and expertise to implement a multi-phase plan centered on enhancing Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion throughout the employee lifecycle. Phase 1 included support and review of job descriptions, preparation of interview guides, and review of performance reviews. Phase 2 included assessing disparate impact at different points in the employment lifecycle, identifying potential barriers, and creating diversity, equity, & inclusion initiatives to remove identified barriers. 

Since the diversity metrics dashboard was developed in DCI software, personnel data can be collected and analyzed periodically or annually to assess progress towards removing potential barriers. Results can be reviewed individually or as a trend assessment to track progress. The diversity metrics dashboard is used by the client to support internal initiatives to raise awareness of diversity and inclusion programs and policies e.g., using availability benchmarking and attrition patterns.

The diversity metrics dashboard can be expanded to meet corporate needs e.g., expanding interest groups to individuals with a disability and veterans. DCI’s knowledge of analytics also allows for consulting advice on the most appropriate unit of analysis to identify possible barriers though the employee life cycle e.g., region or line of business, pay level or other grouping.
