Step 1

Discovery

Weeks 1-2

A dedicated account specialist who has helped consultancies like yours for 20+ years works with you to understand where your consultancy, technology, and assessments meet. They stay with you through the whole process.

A Series of Conversations

We talk through your practice, your clients, and what good looks like for you, over a few focused calls.

Requirements Gathering

A collaborative review of your competency models, branding, and how you run your programs, so we land on the right fit for you and your clients.

Proposal & Agreement

A clear proposal with pricing, timeline, and deliverables. No surprises.

Step 2

Build & Brand

Weeks 2-6

We build an assessment that is uniquely yours: your branding, language, competency models, and scoring rules. This is more than configuration. We shape a tool that feels like your own and refine it with you until it's right, then tailor it for the specific clients you work with.

Brand Alignment

Your logo, colors, fonts, content, and language, aligned to your branding guidelines, so the look and the voice are both yours. Participants only ever see your brand.

Assessment & Report Build

Use your competency model, your client's, or customize one of ours, with feedback reports built to match how you use them.

Quality Assurance

We check the participant experience, reports, and scoring across UAT rounds until everything is right.

Your team is trained on the assessment administration platform they'll use to run your own programs. We support your first launch hands-on to make sure you're set up for success.

Team Training

Pilot Program

We support your first program hands-on, troubleshooting and tuning as it runs.

Why Our Process Works

Built on 30 years of partnership experience

Executive-Level Engagement

You work directly with our leadership team—people who've personally onboarded hundreds of partners. No hand-offs to junior staff.

Assessment Expertise

We understand psychometrics, competency models, and how 360s fit into development programs. We speak your language.

Risk Mitigation

We've seen what can go wrong and built safeguards. Your first program will run smoothly because we've done this hundreds of times.

Long-Term Investment

We're not looking for quick wins. We invest in your success because our best partners stay for years, and we know what that takes.

Common Questions

What else do you need to know?

How long does the full onboarding take?

Most partners are live within 6-12 weeks, depending on complexity. Simple implementations using our existing assessments are faster; custom competency models and multilingual rollouts take longer. We'll give you a realistic timeline in our first conversation.

What if I already have my own competency model?

Perfect. We'll configure it exactly as designed. If it's proprietary, it stays proprietary. Your IP is protected in our agreement.

Can I use one of your existing assessments?

Absolutely. We have a number of validated assessments you can white-label immediately. Many partners start here and add custom assessments later.

What kind of training do you provide?

Live training for your team plus recorded sessions. We also provide admin documentation and participant guides you can customize with your branding.

How does pricing work?

Typically a one-time customization fee plus per-participant licensing. We'll recommend what makes sense for your volume and program mix during our discovery conversation.

What happens if something goes wrong during a program?

We have dedicated support channels and SLAs. Critical issues get immediate attention. In 30 years, we've learned how to prevent problems and fix them fast when they occur.
