B&A Scaffolding

A Case Study in Overcoming Workforce Challenges
“We found it extremely difficult to recruit and retain drivers in our workforce. The business decided to train our existing members of staff to a Class C level. The entire process, from start to finish, was clearly explained by Insite. If any candidate was unsure about something, they were just a call or an email away. I would highly recommend the Insite bootcamp to any business.” Through this collaboration, B&A Scaffolding was able to overcome their staffing challenges, paving the way for continued growth and success in their industry.”

Helping B&A Scaffolding streamline driver training and scale operations

Faced with driver shortages and recruitment delays, B&A Scaffolding turned to Insite for a more efficient solution. With centralised booking, better visibility, and faster completion times, they created a steady pipeline of qualified drivers.

Challenge

  • B&A Scaffolding faced a significant hurdle: attracting and retaining drivers. This shortage strained their operations and hampered their ability to meet customer demands.
  • Their growth strategy was at risk, as the lack of available staff threatened their ability to expand.
  • They needed a cost-effective and efficient solution to ensure a steady supply of Class 1 and Class 2 drivers, along with opportunities for existing staff to upgrade their qualifications.

Solution

Insite were appointed by B&A Scaffolding as to help streamline their driver recruitment and training processes.

By consolidating existing suppliers and centralising operations, Insite was able to significantly reduce costs and complexity.

We introduced a single-invoice system and leveraged our national coverage to ensure candidates were always close to one of our training centres.

Insite’s training coordinator team maintained regular communication with both B&A Scaffolding and the candidates, providing full transparency and updates via text, phone, and email.

Outcome

The partnership yielded impressive results:

  • Queries related to the training process were drastically reduced.
  • B&A Scaffolding’s ability to win new contracts improved as they could now plan and create a pipeline of qualified drivers.
  • The time required to complete training was slashed by 70%, with most candidates completing their training in an average of four months.
  • HGV training was prioritised due to the efficient booking process and the strong relationship established by Insite’s account manager.
  • A clear structure was established, allowing for a three-month timetable for candidates to undergo HGV training and testing.
