New Delhi, June 21, 2018: HR outsourcing has been around for a while. However, when it comes to SMEs and start-ups, it is more lip service due to the way it is structured and the underlying approach. An irony considering Indian economy is largely powered by millions of SMEs and it is among the top start-up destinations in the world. The reasons are not far to seek. The needs of start-ups and SMEs are quite unique and to make it worse there is very little understanding that has gone into shaping the solutions being offered to them. Leaving a significant gap or challenge that needed addressing.On another note, most HR advisory today is largely focused on qualitative metrics which leaves business owners and decision makers hasten to attribute higher value. Few have the belief and rigor to align it to business goals and commit to tangible metrics.
FlipCarbon, incepted in 2014, began focusing on transformational HR advisory in its earlier years notching up quickly a creditable list of clients where the firm delivered tangible and outstanding business results. However, it was soon evident that the firm can make a much larger impact, reach a wider audience and scale more if it combined its advisory with end to end outsourced HR solutions. The expanded offering demanded the firm look at not just its model but its management as well.
Alok Ranjan, who was the People director at AB INbev India (ABI) and was looking to solve the gap/challenge faced by SMEs and start-ups interms of access to high quality HR counsel and expertise, joined Flipcarbon’s management team early 2018. Around the same time, Sanjay Pratap, who was HR Director, MolsonCoors India, also joined the Flipcarbon management team. Together with Prabhash Nirbhay, the original founder, the management team at the helm in FlipCarbon now possessed not just the network but the bandwidth and array of skillsets, required for the firm in its new expanded firm.
One of the intellectual property developed at Flipcarbon is called We P.E.R.F.O.R.M. based on the principle that “The greatest distance between I and We is the emergence of They.” This arose on the proven need to dismantle the Us vs We culture that Employee Satisfaction Surveys tend to propagate.
An integrated HR firm, inspired by Carbon’s ability to morph itself to the intended end use, FlipCarbon, currently has presence in Mumbai, DelhiNCR and Bengaluru. Its offering includes transformational HR Consulting, end to end HR Outsourcing, modular HR Services and HR Intellectual Property (IP) solutions among others. It counts as its clients CEAT, Schneider, Leighton, Royal Bank of Scotland, ABINBEV, John Deere, Relaxo, XISS, NeoNiche, Mypol, Jayanti Group, Live O Live and Vudu, to name a few.
