Rehirecost
A board-memo modeling workspace that joins approved workforce, severance, recruiting, ramp, and redeployment assumptions into versioned scenarios with source citations, uncertainty, finance review, and correction.
The source proposes a board-ready model around a widely cited rehire-versus-redeployment thesis and confirms a live enterprise workforce-planning competitor. It also says no SMB-priced pure rehire-cost calculator was found. That finding is directional, not proof that the market is empty.
Rehirecost must not turn population statistics or vendor claims into a customer-specific forecast. Every cost line needs a definition, source, effective period, population, owner, confidence or range, and approval. Baseline, reduction, redeployment, hiring, ramp, severance, benefits, knowledge-transfer, vacancy, and productivity effects remain separate. Scenarios are conditional comparisons, not causal truth.
The product does not recommend layoffs, select workers, infer performance, determine protected status, provide legal or tax advice, or claim savings. A board memo should expose assumptions, omitted effects, uncertainty, sensitivities, conflicts, review, and corrections. Customer finance and qualified HR and legal owners remain authoritative.
SMB and mid-market finance, people, and workforce-planning leaders preparing reviewed restructuring, redeployment, or rehiring scenarios for executive and board decisions.
Workforce displacement and restructuring make scenario discipline timely.
Finance and people leaders preparing board scenarios are specific.
Several related signals and workflow neighbors support the concept.
The finance and HR buyer, board artifact, model inputs, and enterprise comparison are concrete.
The headline research ratio requires source and applicability validation, modeled productivity is contestable, data access is sensitive, and a live competitor can move downmarket.
