Sales/Employee
Sales/Employee is scaled based upon historical results in past semesters with the simulation. If you reach or exceed these targets, you earn 50 points:
Threshold Sales/Employee Target Sales /Employee Year 1 $80,000 $160,000 Year 2 $90,000 $180,000 Year 3 $100,000 $200,000 Year 4 $112,500 $225,000 Year 5 $125,000 $250,000 Year 6 $140,000 $280,000 Year 7 $157,500 $315,000 Year 8 $177,500 $355,000
You earn points for anything above the threshold. For example, in Year 1, if your sales are $80,000 or below, you earn nothing for Sales/Employee. At $120,000/Employee, you earn 25 points, and at $160,000/Employee you earn 50 points.
You can improve Sales/Employee several ways:
- Excellent forecasting. Complements are tied to the production schedule. If you use employees to put inventory into the warehouse instead of a customer's hands, you add nothing to Sales yet have an increased complement.
- Higher Automation. Increasing automation levels reduces complement.
- If the HR module is switched on, you have opportunities to improve productivity. Over six years, you could increase productivity by over 20%, and therefore reduce complement.
