Mercer's International Position Evaluation System (IPE)
Mercer's International Position Evaluation System (IPE) offers organisations an independent method to compare various aspects of a job and rank positions against each other. The system allows for fast, reliable and consistent measurement of positions' size and value to an organisation across job families, within any type of organisation across the world.
Mercer consultants use IPE to design effective grading structures to support the organisational goals.

Are you looking for an evaluation system that has a track record of success and can be implemented quickly and consistently?
