Prophet Analytics

Prophet Analytics is South Africa’s leading labour analytics company, providing specialized research and consulting services to a wide range of blue-chip clients. Founded in 2005, the company employs experts in the fields of workforce optimization, productivity, wages, pay grading, union negotiations, human capital return-on-investment, labour market benchmarking, workforce scheduling and employment. We are unique in our emphasis on quantitative analysis, and we employ cutting-edge and tried and tested statistical and mathematical techniques to solve real-world labour challenges. Our experts have Masters or higher degrees in economics, statistics, finance and related fields, and they are recognized leaders in their respective areas. Prophet Analytics is the preferred workforce productivity partner for blue-chip clients including Auto & General, Dimension Data, Eskom, First National Bank, MTN, Multichoice, Old Mutual, Standard Bank, Telkom, and many others. Cumulatively over the past 5 years, we have saved our blue-chip client base over R650 million in labour costs. In most cases we are able to set ourselves the following challenge: reduce a client’s total staff costs and/or increase workforce capacity by at least 12% in the first 100 working days of our interventions, or refund the client. We employ the best project management practices in the world to ensure that our clients obtain sustainable benefits from our interventions, long after the interventions have been concluded. This has led to a 100% client retention rate over a 5 year period. Efficient project management and tight control of costs have led our interventions to be affordable and cost-effective. Prophet Analytics is the fastest-growing independent labour analytics company in South Africa. Our independence allows us to innovate without fear or favour, and our emphasis on long-term partnerships puts our client’s requirements rather than short-term billings first.
