With today’s economic environment, there is no shortage of people looking for a job. Finding the right people to support your needs, however, is the real challenge. TMG utilizes our relationships with trade schools, community colleges, universities, and the military to build reliable employee pipelines. Our vision is to provide a Talent Acquisition and Retention System to all our partners’ labor requirements and create a world-class workforce of engaged teammates.

ESCO Engineered Products was faced with the challenge of hiring and maintaining a large workforce of skilled laborers with limited success. After attending a TMG workshop, they realized the need for an objective analysis of their current hiring process. TMG developed an in-depth Current State Analysis of the company’s On Boarding Process then designed, developed, and piloted a modernized team mate acquisition program named People Powered Lean (PPL). PPL features a modernized hiring process; a scenario based interview/skills assessment; a “world class” first day; a common skills training program; a production cell training program; a first 90 day coaching and feedback process; and a PPL management system focused on reducing the new Team Mates time to competency in their first job and reducing 1st year attrition. Essential to the success of this program, TMG analyzed and identified critical Production Skills in order to design and develop an integrated Common Skills Training and Cell Training Program to improve New Hire Integration.
