Updated: Mar 17, 2023

“HCMI guarantees a minimum of $1 Million in workforce ROI cost savings or productivity gains, or our time is free.” ~ Jeff Higgins, HCMI CEO


The Challenge


HCMI has found over a million dollars in productivity and cost savings value for 100+ companies.  We are so confident we can do this for ANY company that we are challenging you to step up and take away any excuses for not doing great workforce analytics.  In return, HCMI takes away the risk by guaranteeing we will find at least $1 Million in workforce ROI opportunities, or you pay nothing.


What to Expect


HCMI will analyze your workforce and find opportunities to increase its productivity and/or reduce costs by at least $1 Million annually.  You will receive a detailed and action-oriented analysis on your company’s workforce productivity, its trends for up to the last four years with industry comparisons, and the talent-focused drivers of revenue and profit.  HCMI will show you how to achieve that $1M+ improvement in concrete steps every year.

Next Steps


What do I have to do?

All you have to do is sign a contract to provide data:

  1. We sign an NDA to ensure complete confidentiality, and a contract guaranteeing $1.0 million+ in ROI savings or productivity gains.

  2. HCMI loads your organization’s data into our proprietary tools and analytic models.

  3. We deliver a custom insight report showing what, where and how to get $1 million+ ROI.

  4. That was easy, can we do it again?

HCMI is a full service firm, offering consulting, training, technology, tools, and templates, so we can do all the work for you.  And, depending on your firm’s capacity, we can collaborate to find the ROI together or give your company the capability to self-sustain the $1M+ ROI every year.


FAQ’s


My workforce data is highly confidential. How can I be sure it will be protected?

HCMI works with the latest in data security, encryption technology, processes and will work with your organization’s data security teams and standards to ensure your data is safe and confidential.  HCMI also engages with clients on every project with a mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement in place to protect all intellectual property and any sensitive information involved.
