Case studies / Molecular & toxicology diagnostics

National molecular & toxicology diagnostics lab

80% less turnover. 690% revenue growth in 18 months. Unparalleled partnership.

A multi-state molecular and toxicology diagnostics lab came to us with executive gaps, a sales producer shortage, operational inefficiency, and severe turnover. Over 20 months we rebuilt the workforce, the staffing supplier program, the onboarding engine, and the 24×7 scheduling model.

Shyft6 is responsible for the 300+ contractors that we leverage in the field. They do a lot more than traditional staffing — so I’ll simply say without hyperbole that their contribution to our success over the past 20 months is completely unparalleled.

The situation

What they were facing

  • Executive leadership gaps at the top of the sales and clinical organizations
  • Sales producer shortage slowing territory expansion
  • Over-reliance on manual processes across recruiting, onboarding, and scheduling
  • High turnover eroding program economics and customer continuity
  • A mobile, 24×7 clinical workforce that the existing scheduling approach couldn’t keep visible

  • Sourced and hired 5 executive roles and 35 territory sales associates
  • Stood up centralized contingent workforce management with an onsite Shyft6 program manager
  • Rebuilt the staffing supplier program from MSA to scorecard
  • Redesigned onboarding end-to-end, including training and testing materials
  • Revamped staff schedules for 24×7 operations with a self-service scheduling app
