About Humanitec
Headquartered in Berlin, Humanitec’s Platform Orchestrator is the engine at the heart of a dynamic IDP. It lets platform teams, from growing startups to enterprises, remove bottlenecks by letting them build golden paths for developers. The company has grown from 20 employees to around 60 in less than a year.
From the beginning, Humanitec championed remote work and the flexibility that comes along with it. The team is distributed across several countries and time zones. In building a remote-first company, Humanitec had to ensure that they were compliant with regulations while having the flexibility to find the employees that were the best fit. They needed to find a partner that could help them navigate the global employment landscape and scale without having to take the complexities of compliance into their own hands.
El desafío
Simplificar y estandarizar la gestión de nóminas en 20 países
Con empleados repartidos por 20 países diferentes, nuestro cliente cuenta con proveedores de servicios en el país para gestionar sus nóminas, lo que les libera de la carga de procesamiento y cumplimiento. Sin embargo, tener un proveedor diferente para cada país es un gran reto para sus equipos centrales de nóminas y finanzas. Reciben los datos de las nóminas de cada país, pero los formatos son totalmente diferentes y los factores de coste y los sueldos que figuran para cada zona geográfica difieren de un proveedor a otro. Comparar los costes de las nóminas de diferentes lugares es casi imposible.
Además, cada vez que el equipo de nóminas necesita elaborar un informe sobre sus operaciones de nóminas a nivel mundial, se necesita mucho tiempo y esfuerzo para reunir manualmente los datos necesarios. En más de una ocasión, esta recopilación manual de datos ha dado lugar a errores en los informes que sólo se descubrieron meses después, cuando ya era demasiado tarde. Para la empresa de ingeniería, la falta de datos transparentes y fiables sobre las nóminas es un problema importante, ya que les impide acceder a un recurso valioso para tomar decisiones empresariales fundadas.
Solution
Managing employment, expenses, and payroll in a single solution
Lano provides Humanitec with an all-in-one tool to manage the various elements of hiring a global team. The processes within Lano are intuitive and seamless and having a single place to streamline processes saves time.
The quote creation flow is very straightforward and Lano is upfront with how much the entire process will cost. The transparency from the beginning helped build trust with Lano; it was clear that they would have a knowledgeable partner when it comes to navigating the complex landscape of hiring globally, remotely.
With the help of Lano, the Humanitec team hired two candidates with the unique specifications that worked well for both parties. By working with local in-country partners, Lano is able to provide an excellent user experience to the clients. These in-country partners are experts in hiring in that country and are able to offer Lano more flexibility to better meet the needs of their clients. Lano adapted to their unique situations and worked to ensure Humanitec’s needs were met in a timely manner and compliantly.
Lano’s platform experience team helped ensure that the onboarding process was simple. Lano offered personalized support for any questions that arose as Humanitec transitioned to the operational side of managing a global team. Simple invoicing flows, the correct reminders, and easy approval processes were key. Expense management for various employees was a breeze. Additional benefits, such as co-working budgets, were easy to add to employee contracts to provide a similar experience to each employee no matter where they are based. With Lano, all of these functionalities were straightforward which helped the team stay organized and provide peace of mind that these processes were handled compliantly.
Results
Streamlining processes to save time & resources with Lano
With Lano, the Humanitec team transitioned 3 employees from being employed on a contract, freelance basis to full time employees via EOR. The team at Lano easily consulted Humanitec and set the right expectations from the beginning, whether it be timeline expectations or the nuances of human resources. Humanitec required some consultation around specific circumstances which Lano was able to accommodate with ease; these cases were not possible to facilitate by other EOR partners at the time.
All of the processes around paying the employees, managing their expenses are done within the Lano platform. This makes it easy to approve additional expenses and have the confidence that this is done compliantly and correctly. Once these expenses are approved by Humanitec, it is simple to pay these employees from Lano. In-app and email reminders as well as regular contact with their dedicated account manager helps ensure that all of these processes run smoothly. As Humanitec continues to grow and when another EOR case arises, Lano will be their go-to choice.
