Takeaways

  • Aptive needed a better way to motivate a large, seasonal remote workforce while gaining visibility into decentralized incentive spend.
  • Awardco provided a single dashboard for budgeting, reporting, and incentive tracking—streamlining oversight without sacrificing autonomy.
  • Incentive spend became more effective and efficient, with increased visibility and measurable impact across all teams.

The Challenge

Insufficient motivation and visibility

Working in pest control, Aptive faced unique challenges with their seasonally fluctuating workforce:

  • How could they motivate and reward thousands of dispersed employees?
  • How could the track, report, and wisely use incentive dollars?

Their previous solution gave autonomy to individual managers without oversight, leading to disconnected programs and a lack of financial visibility.

The Solutions

A unified dashboard with complete visibility

By implementing Awardco, Aptive got access to:

  • Centralized dashboards that provide real-time insight into incentive spend and budgetary health
  • Powerful reporting tools to help track engagement, budget usage, and more
  • Administrative controls to allow leadership to guide overall recognition strategy without micromanaging managers

The Results

Smaller spend, bigger impact

Now entering its sixth year of working with Awardco, Aptive continues to:

  • Optimize incentive budgets with real-time reporting and usage tracking
  • Motivate remote, seasonal teams through more targeted and timely recognition
  • Improve operational productivity by aligning incentives with business goals

Awardco has helped Aptive transform recognition from a decentralized challenge into a strategic advantage, driving culture and performance—year-round.
