Abstract
El Grupo Bigmond es una empresa peruana dedicada a la consultoría de recursos
humanos, especialmente a la selección de talentos. La empresa ofrece servicios de alta calidad,
centrándose en la igualdad, la diversidad y la responsabilidad social corporativa. En los
últimos años, el Grupo Bigmond ha experimentado un rápido crecimiento y ha diversificado
sus servicios. El principal problema identificado es la ineficiencia y la falta de digitalización
de los procesos operativos. La literatura revisada mostró una tendencia a realizar la
transformación digital y destacó que la gestión del cambio interno está vinculada a la
transformación cultural. Además, la pandemia del COVID-19 impactó la industria y el
mercado laboral del Perú y afecta la demanda de servicios de reclutamiento y el desempeño
financiero de la compañía.
Un análisis de la causa principal se basó en la información cuantitativa y cualitativa
obtenida a través de una encuesta de madurez digital y entrevistas con los jefes de
departamento, que identificó la necesidad de una herramienta digital universal. Una evaluación
de alternativas puso de manifiesto la idoneidad de la herramienta Microsoft Teams como
solución al problema en combinación con las clases en línea impartidas por el director general,
que se considera el agente del cambio. El coste total anual de la solución propuesta es de
US$2,904 para el número actual de empleados y autónomos. Sin embargo, la inversión total
anual es de US$1,945.80, ya que el pago de las otras herramientas digitales se puede paralizar.
Para la implementación se ha propuesto un plan detallado que incluye una lista de actividades,
un responsable y un periodo de tiempo. Están previstas seis semanas para la preparación e
integración de Microsoft Teams, y seis meses para la adaptación cultural. Los indicadores
clave de rendimiento son el rendimiento operativo, la colaboración interdepartamental y la
madurez digital, que se estima que aumentarán un 30%, un 70% y un 50% respectivamente en
el plazo de un año.
