We understand that the implementation and planning for these types of projects are both sensitive and important for your organisation.
​

Initially we’ll set up a diagnostic meeting to better understand your organisation, issues with your current pay and grading approach, and the project triggers.

As an output of this meeting, we will develop a project proposal with concise and transparent pricing for your review.
