TRANSFER OF PERSONNEL (ANÜ)

Transfer of personnel with organisational integration and authority to issue instructions. Legally compliant and accompanied by the accustomed flexibility.

In recent years, clients have faced uncertainties in connection with the temporary assumption of a line function and the operational integration of an interim manager due to the risk of bogus self-employment being deemed to be present as laid down in Section 611a of the German Civil Code (BGB).

By assuming a line function, the interim manager is bound by instructions and issues instructions to employees of the company and is frequently involved in regular meetings as well. Whenever a client has any misgivings along these lines, we have been able to ensure a legally watertight solution for many years now thanks to our transfer of personnel, including full integration into the company organisation.

In this case, our clients can reap the benefits from the accustomed flexibility along with legal certainty at the same time.

Harmonisation of the IT infrastructure at a multinational manufacturing enterprise

A multinational mechanical engineering company was standardising its IT systems to meet global challenges and cope with technological diversity. The CIO wanted to bring in external expertise to help overcome cultural differences and ensure a smooth transition. The objective was to train employees effectively and smoothly integrate the new systems in order to optimise operational processes.

The management decided to standardise the IT systems. Due to acquisitions in various countries, the mechanical engineering company had grown considerably. Internal company communication and numerous operational processes were becoming increasingly challenging due to the variety of IT systems being used globally. Due to cultural differences and a lack of expertise in the systems used abroad, the CIO decided to hire an external expert to manage the project. The requirements profile included the creation of an IT landscape and a project plan; moreover, the company’s own employees were to be involved in the implementation. In addition, human resources working in IT at sites in other countries were to be trained in the new systems.

Municipal IT service provider with 20 customers and approximately 12,000 end users hires interim project manager

A highly reputed IT service provider was migrating from SAP R/3 to S/4 and thus centralising its IT infrastructure. But that is not all – the project team had bigger things in mind. Their aim was to make IT operations more efficient and relieve employees of time-consuming everyday tasks. With planned savings estimated at 7% of total IT operating costs, it was evident that expert know-how was needed. Staff members were also being asked to tackle additional day-to-day tasks. The challenges had not yet been fully surmounted, however. The management recognised the urgent need to bring in external support to make up for lost time. A search commenced for an experienced project manager who not only had expertise in migration and centralisation projects, but also had the talent to communicate and motivate across departments.
In view of impending changes in employees’ work routines, it was crucial to find someone who not only had technical expertise, but was also able to guide the teams through these changes.
