Make Invisible Losses Visible

Without a clear link between time and dollars, workforce decisions rely on guesswork. Workforce Cost Summary quantifies the cost of low utilization and idle time so you can prioritize the changes that matter most.

Workforce-Cost-Summary-04

Cost Summary Dashboard

The dashboard aggregates productivity data and salary inputs to show:

Workforce-Cost-Summary-04

Cost of baseline shortfall

Cost of idle & unproductive time

Total FTE slack across filters

FTE Slack helps leaders see when underutilization equals one or more full-time
roles, unlocking potential for strategic redeployment.

Workforce-Cost-Summary-02

From Utilization to FTE Slack

This turns abstract “lost time” into tangible cost and staffing insights.

Workforce-Cost-Summary-02

Baseline Shortfall
minimum expected utilization (60%) vs. actual utilization

Cost of Shortfall
dollarized impact of the gap using your salary inputs

FTE Slack
reveals when underutilized hours add up to the equivalent of a full employee, making reallocation opportunities clear

Workforce-Cost-Summary-05

Protect Salary Data by Design

Your sensitive data is safeguarded with enterprise-grade protections :
