Subject: HCM Budgeting

Goal: Manage existing Human Capital budgets while accurately forecasting needs and demonstrating a return on the investment

Did You Know?
A Mercer HR study shows:
Over the last 5 years Compensation and Benefits budgets have risen by 10% while the average workforce population has risen only by 3%.
Only 14 % of businesses are able to predict HR Budget for next year with an accuracy of 5% difference
86% of "cost-overrun" cases include HCM budgets being missed by more than 25%

The Challenge
Cost simulation is based on wrong or limited input
Budget estimation process is based on "same +10%"
Foreseeable influencers are not taken into account
No metrics are in place

Key Drivers
Need to improve budgeting process and monitoring
Need to broaden input source
Need to identify areas and reasons for overspending
