The plan is the system.
Headcount, scenarios, budget and approvals — all on the same record finance and HR already trust. No more spreadsheet wars before the board meeting.

Scenarios
Workforce plans break before they ship.
Three failure modes repeat across mid-market planning cycles. Each one shows up between Plan-of-Record and the next board update.
Plans live in Excel
Hiring slate is a tab. Budget is another tab. Approvals are an email thread. Nothing reconciles, everyone argues.
Finance vs HR
Finance models cost. HR models capacity. Numbers diverge by 5–8% before each board meeting and the kickoff slips.
Attrition surprises
Voluntary attrition runs +30% of plan. The slate stays the same. Reqs miss start dates by a quarter.
Plan vs open vs filled vs forecast.
Department-level rows wired to the same employee record. Forecast adjusts as offers issue, attrition lands and reqs close — no spreadsheet refresh.
Three plans. One record. Run them live.
Toggle between Base, Stretch and Cut. FTE, cost and attrition assumptions update against the same record — no model export, no broken links.

Planning shouldn't depend on EOR billing.
EOR platforms model your workforce as line-items and bill scenarios per contractor. People plans owned headcount on the same operator-priced record finance and HR already share — no per-seat scenario tax.
Stop reconciling Excel. Start running the plan.
Headcount, scenarios, budget, hiring slate and approvals — every planning lever in one platform, on the same operator pricing as the rest of People.
