A workforce plan with timing
See when a proposed change affects staffing and costs.
Use a workforce plan for a specific planning question, such as hiring in July or changing pay in October. Compare proposed changes with a baseline that follows official information automatically. See their effect on staffing and costs, then an authorized administrator can review one change or select several and apply them with a reason.
What you can compare
A current starting point
The baseline follows official information automatically. See what remains to change while applied work stays visible in the plan.
Choose what to change
Propose changes to positions, assignments, hires, budget rates, and pay. Choose when each change takes effect and which changes to apply together.
Staffing and cost requirements
Evaluate proposed changes against fixed FTE requirements and financial limits. Save evaluations and create reports for browser, Excel, or CSV output.
Comparable alternatives
Compare staffing and costs using the same dates and approved information. Completed reports keep the results you reviewed as active plans continue to update.
