01 · Set Up

Start with the information you already have.

Upload your employee data and business plan, and Foresight will extract the key information needed to begin building your workforce plan. This includes your current workforce structure and costs, together with business measures such as the planning period, revenue and operating profit.

The extracted information is presented for review, so you remain in control. Confirm it, amend it or add anything that is missing before moving forward.

No complex system configuration. Just a clear, confirmed starting point built from your own organisational data.

See the shape, composition and cost of your workforce.

Before planning what comes next, Foresight creates a clear picture of where your organisation is today. Explore headline workforce measures and see how employees are distributed across departments, locations, teams and grades.

Examine workforce mix and total employee costs for the whole organisation or focus on a particular workforce group. This creates a reliable baseline for understanding where capability and investment currently sit.

03 · Drivers

Turn strategy into workforce change.

Foresight connects your business goals and commercial assumptions to their potential workforce impact. It shows where headcount may need to increase, reduce or move, and how those changes can be phased across each year of the plan.

Start with Foresight’s recommendation, adjust the assumptions or define the workforce changes manually. Every recommendation remains visible and explainable, so the judgement stays with you.

Shape a plan the business can afford.

See what will change across your workforce and adjust the plan year by year. Explore recruitment, redeployment and workforce reductions by department, location, team or grade.

Change the numbers, move activity between years and immediately see how each decision affects future headcount, total employee costs and operating profit.

Balance workforce capability with financial reality before committing to change.
