Benefit and compensation review, analysis and design
Quest recognizes the need to establish competitively designed, cost-effective benefits and compensation programs that help recruit and retain the talent required to achieve your business goals. We work with our clients to determine program objectives and philosophies, then design and implement programs to meet these goals. Compensation services include preparing job evaluations and wage surveys, developing wage/salary structures, and designing corporate-wide compensation policies. Benefit planning services include analyzing current or proposed benefits as a part of the total compensation package, recommending modifications based on company goals, and assisting with benefit implementation and administration.

Design and implementation of incentive programs
Quest recognizes the benefit of valuing your employees. We work with our clients to design incentive programs that are in alignment with their philosophy. We then develop the business model, write the incentive plan and present it to your team members.

Development of performance appraisal systems
Our services include the design and development of performance appraisal programs consisting of the establishment of objectives, procedures, consequences, incentive and reward programs, job ratings, design of appraisal forms, and performance communications training.

Quest provides skills assessments to determine what internal and external development programs may be necessary. The assessment includes an evaluation of management skills, functional design, and relationship dynamics. The development plan identifies specific skill sets required and recommendations to achieve those skill sets.
