Headcount Approval Process

Head count, budgeting, and capacity planning all in one doc.

Problem

One of a company’s largest spends is hiring and yet there is no one single source of truth for headcount needs. Often, we find teams are working in a bubble — whether it’s the finance team nose deep in planning docs and spreadsheets, recruiting on their ATS, or HROps on HRIS.
In the best case scenario, disparate tools means everything has to be manually updated across multiple platforms just to get a clear picture on headcount needs.
In the worst case scenario, we have open roles when there isn’t budget approval.

Solution

Say goodbye to lost email chains, back room horse trading, and the black box of headcount approvals... and say hello to a customized way to collaborate on headcount requests, streamline approvals, and increase visibility.
