People budget is an essential activity within VLI’s strategy. This is because, as it happens in many companies, it represents a big share of the organization’s total costs. Marcos Matheus says that to support this activity, VLI initially used a tool developed internally. However, according to the manager, the solution did not have all the features required to run the process in the organization.

“The tool generated a large operational demand and did not show facilities, such as speed in generating calculations and the accuracy of the information, since it was not directly integrated to the payroll system”, he highlights.

From these difficulties, VLI has noticed the importance of having a specific and integrated system and has chosen to implement Gen.te Planeja - People Budget. “With LG’s tool, we have gained a lot of productivity and we have more confidence in the calculations and projections made. Besides, we give each area the opportunity of managing their budget and expenses tendencies, in an automated way”, VLI’s remuneration and benefits manager reinforces.
