WORKFORCE NORM · GRADING · JOB EVALUATION

Organization Design

Organization design ties the org chart, grading (job sizing), job evaluation and workload analysis into a single architecture. When roles, spans of control, decision rights and salary bands are set right, the structure clears the path for strategy.

What We Solve

01

Bloated middle layer, slowing decisions (span of control)

Spans of control and layer counts are redesigned to shorten the decision chain; optimum span is set for every manager.

02

Grading & job sizing — career levels and job-size architecture

Each role is sized through a Hay, Mercer or tailored grading methodology and mapped to a career band.

03

Job evaluation and salary-band design

Job evaluation output feeds the salary-band model; internal equity and external benchmark are managed together.

04

Job analysis, workload analysis and workforce norm sizing

Workload, capacity and productivity pressure are analysed per unit to derive the workforce norm and balance the load.

05

Org chart, job descriptions and RACI architecture

Target org chart, refreshed job descriptions and a RACI matrix make decision owners, consulted and informed parties explicit.

06

Transition to the new structure and change management

Communication, transition plan and a resistance-management playbook are designed together.

Our Approach

Diagnose — Collect current org chart, decision rights, job analysis and workload data.

02

Design — Build the target structure, grading framework, job-evaluation model, salary bands and workforce norm.

03

Deploy — Roll out job descriptions, RACI, the transition plan and leadership briefings.

04

Measure — Track decision speed, span of control, pay consistency and organizational health.
