Model Strategic Targets From the Top Down as a Building Block to Operational Forecasts

Start with the goal in mind by modeling a workforce plan based on % of sales and other executive targets
Make broad, position based headcount changes to “what if” how targets can be met with an operational plan
View positional synopsis of headcount and compensation by position, level, and ethnicity
Leverage workflow to submit targets and allowing regional managers to plan operational hiring & raises based on the targets
Report and analyze headcount at both the strategic and operational level in real-time

Develop Operational Workforce Plan by Person and Position from the Bottom Up

Review targets in real time and model operational forecasts based on set targets
Automate the load of employee roster and salary data from your HR and Payroll systems to develop a “current state” baseline
Plan regional taxes, benefits, bonus, and merit increases by person and position for accurate compensation forecasting
Add planned hire, named employees to determine the impact on financials
Model bulk to-be-hired employees by position, utilizing a headcount multiplier and average salary adjustment for large planning organizational changes

Manage Global Drivers, Business Unit Assumptions, and Employee Transfer Activity to Drive Consolidated P&L Reporting

Use what-if planning for salary raises and bonus structures for existing employees to meet established workforce expense forecast targets
Plan for positional changes and promotions at the employee level, including title changes, new start dates, and salary changes
