Mercer IPEs
organization sizing
approach helps
differentiate segments
of your business based
on three components:
headcount, economic
volume and complexity
delivered through a
value chain assessment.
Organization sizing
plays a key role in
quantifying the level of
impact and contribution
a job has on your
organizations success.

The Mercer IPE evaluation factors reflect current thinking on how many successful companies view and value jobs.
Consistent application of these factors during the evaluation process can enhance business understanding, support
the assessment of relationships between jobs and job families, and fairly align your jobs between levels, among
business segments, and across borders. The five factors are:

IMPACT
COMMUNICATION

The nature of a jobs influence on the organization and the breadth and
depth of the jobs contribution
The type of communication skills required by the job, the purpose of
communication, and the audience with which the job communicates

INNOVATION

The level of problem solving and design/development that the job requires
and the nature of the problems the job typically encounters

KNOWLEDGE

The nature of technical (and/or organizational) skills and knowledge required


by a job, people management requirements, and geographic context

RISK

The nature of mental and physical risk associated with the job and the
conditions in which the job operates
