Deloitte Consulting recently acquired a rewards optimization analytics component from Bug Insights, a business specializing in product optimization and human resources solutions based in Houston.

Bug Insights is a marketing and human capital analytics firm helping organizations to make informed decisions through optimum data. Via the new system, Deloitte’s clients can better identify what workers appreciate most in their rewards programs, the company said.

"Organizations around the world are hyper-focused on creating an irresistible employee experience to keep top talent," Erica Volini, principal of Deloitte Consulting, said. "As employees' demands shift, organizations are recognizing the need for strategic management of their total rewards programs.”

Based on changes in the workforce population and in technology itself, businesses are increasingly looking to tailor their worker incentive ideas to appeal to employees and retain talent.

“Traditional compensation and benefits packages aren't cutting it,” Volini said. “By harnessing the power of data and engaging employees directly, companies can use these tools and rewards programs as a strategic enabler to strike at the heart of what employees really value."  

Deloitte Consulting is a subsidiary of Deloitte LLP.
