Human Capital Function Efficiency Audit (DIY) for In-House Legal Teams

Self assess the adequacy of the environment in which your lawyers operates

The Problem: Data Profiling the Adequacy of the Legal Team's Operating Environment

You want to improve the operating environment of your lawyers.

Related challenges include:

  • to improve you must undertake a “current status” assessment
  • legal department “how to guides” are not commonly available
  • objectively assessing your own performance is not easy
  • you are not sure of what performance audit criteria to use
  • you are not clear how your human capital function benchmarks against peer legal teams
  • finding time to conduct an audit comes on top of existing workloads
  • you know good diagnostic tools provide actionable insights
  • your team wants to do more strategic work but just cannot find the time

Wouldn’t it be great if you could access a comprehensive diagnostic tool that allows you to generate actionable insights for your team? 

The GLS Solution: A Structured Legal Human Capital Efficiency Audit (DIY)

GLS Human Capital Function Efficiency Audit™ (DIY) is an online, easy to implement, intuitive to use, performance diagnostic tool to help you assess the environment in which your lawyers are operating.

GLS Human Capital Function Efficiency Audit™ (DIY) will help you rapidly assess whether the environment in which your lawyers operate is conducive to optimal performance in an objective and transparent manner.

GLS Contracting Function Efficiency Audit™ (DIY) will help you efficiently build up a data-based view of the current resource and performance status of your business’s contracting infrastructure in an objective and transparent manner.

Comprising more than 150 diagnostic questions, this module has been prepared by reference to the Human Capital Line on the GLS Transformation Tube Map - which gives you access to: 

  • a powerful reference model of what a fully optimised function would look like;
  • a detailed view of the critical resources that enable and drive optimised contracting in a best-practice context.

By applying our audit module, you will be able to generate a data-based view of your own Human Capital Line that helps you:

  • assess the presence and/or current performance of the essential features required for an optimally performing contracting  function; 
  • benchmark how your contracting function stacks up against a GLS-defined best practice standard; and
  • identify logical intervention/optimisation scenarios to drive function productivity.

The emergent data from this audit tool will (particularly when combined with the comprehensive intelligence freely available on the Tube Map), significantly enhances your ability to blueprint and execute a transformation of your contracting capability that is: 

  • is self-authored and specific to your business and internal stakeholders;
  • efficiently targets maximum productivity intervention scenarios with minimal resource application; and
  • is easy, cheap, quick and safe to implement.

You can explore why building a data-based view of your human capital environment is an essential precursor to successful transformation in Why Every Successful Legal Department Transformation Starts with a Current Status Assessment.

Additionally, please do read our views on how traditional approaches to legal team management are no longer capable of supporting performance driven teams that can operate at scale. 

Problem solved.
