Can I afford to hire?
Model loaded wage cost from your assumptions. Separate direct wage coverage from the overhead revenue model, and check that employee and subcontract costs use the same hour basis. Replace planning defaults with actual costs and demand.
Question 1 of 3
What kind of work do you do?
We use this to set planning bill-rate and GP defaults; replace them with your actual cost basis and quotes.
Need a real headcount plan, not a calculator?
We can review pipeline and backlog, then model a 12-month cash plan with the proposed hire, alternative staffing and uncertain demand visible.
Operating review
Questions before adding a role
The margin, cash, and operating questions we check first when reviewing your numbers.
Does backlog require another person or a better handoff?
Booked work, available crew hours and invoice-ready work are different capacity measures.
What work would a supervisor release from the owner or crew?
A title and salary do not establish what capacity a new role creates.
Is the back office missing a bookkeeper, controller or decision owner?
Transaction processing, close review and operating decisions are separate responsibilities.
