Intelligence Architecture

Core Intelligence Frameworks

WEI™
Workforce Exposure Index

Composite 0–100 score measuring demand pressure, supply constraint, compensation velocity, and counteroffer intensity. Threshold: 80+ = Critical, 65–79 = Severe, 45–64 = Elevated.

Explore WEI™ →
CVF™
Compensation Volatility Framework

Tracks how quickly base pay, total compensation, sign-ons, and retention packages are repricing in real time. Identifies where survey benchmarks have diverged from accepted offers.

Explore CVF™ →
PERM™
Project Execution Risk Matrix

Maps workforce risk directly to schedule slippage, margin erosion, and delivery exposure. Translates labor scarcity into executive-visible project consequence before it appears in reporting.
