Our tools
Three questions, three tools.
Some management questions come back every month, every quarter, every pay review. We built our own tools for them. Each is a separate HCBC product: it can be adopted on its own and is not tied to any other engagement.
01 · Monthly · Month-end forecast
Forecast toolBefore the month ends, month-end is on the table.
At mid-month it produces the month-end profit forecast and bridges the gap to budget line by line. Management sees what is coming before the month closes and acts in time.
- Forecast chainBudget, latest forecast, flash and actual in one chain; every figure can be traced to its source.
- Bridge to budgetIs the gap from volume, price or cost? Visible line by line.
- Range forecastNot a single number; with its pessimistic and optimistic range.
- In the meeting rhythmEvery month the same table gets figures calculated the same way.
02 · Quarterly · Objectives and key results
OKR toolThe objective, on the table every quarter.
Cascades the company objective to units, teams and individuals; shows on one screen where each key result stands and how confidently it is progressing.
- Objective treeFrom company to unit, team to individual; 2–5 measurable key results per objective.
- Quarterly rhythmProgress and confidence updated every two weeks; a short review at quarter end.
- Objectives apart from ratingsSo that ambitious objectives do not shrink, OKRs are not tied directly to ratings; KPIs can be.
- Fair calibrationThe same bar across managers; each rating is recorded with its rationale.
03 · Pay review · Pay decision engine
DengeThe pay decision, with its rationale.
In a time of high inflation and pay transparency it makes pay decisions fast, defensible and explainable. The compensation manager sets the budget; line managers propose raises without training.
- Band mapEvery employee within the band for their grade; those outside it are visible at a glance.
- Scenario studioTwo or three raise scenarios side by side; cost and net effect instantly.
- Net, gross, employer costAll three on every screen; calculated under Turkish payroll legislation.
- Board summaryBudget, distribution and rationale on one page.
