HCDT & JRET Alignment Map
WDG(JR+) Diagnostic — every dimension cross-referenced

Side-by-side mapping of every question in the live self-diagnostic to the IHRP Human Capital Diagnostic Tool (HCDT) people-practice domains and the WSG Job Redesign Evaluation Toolkit (JRET, Feb 2026). Alignment basis is publicly-available framework material — this is a self-diagnostic indicator, not a licensed instrument.

A HR Maturity → IHRP HCDT alignment
ID Diagnostic dimension (question text shown to user) IHRP HCDT domain (public framework reference) WSG JRET focus (secondary cross-link) Alignment
HR1 Workforce Planning "How systematically does your organisation forecast and plan for future headcount, skills, and talent needs?" Strategic Workforce Planning & Talent Acquisition HCDT pillar covering demand forecasting, skills planning, and structured pipeline management. Future workforce design Connects redesign needs to forward-looking talent supply. Mirrored
HR2 Talent Attraction "How effective is your ability to attract, assess, and hire the right people consistently?" Talent Acquisition Employer brand, structured hiring funnel, candidate experience, time-to-fill. Hard-to-fill role redesign JRET addresses chronic vacancy roles via job redesign. Mirrored
HR3 Learning & Development "How well does your organisation invest in developing employee skills and future capabilities?" Learning & Capability Development L&D linked to career pathways, role requirements, business priorities; SkillsFuture alignment. Capability building post-redesign Sustains JR outcomes long-term. Mirrored
HR4 KPI & Performance Management "How clearly are performance expectations set, tracked, and used to drive meaningful outcomes?" Performance Management Goal cascading, calibration, regular feedback cycles, manager accountability. Outcome-based role design JRET emphasises measurable role outcomes over task lists. Mirrored
HR5 Employee Engagement "How engaged, motivated, and committed is your workforce overall?" Engagement & Retention Survey cadence, action ownership, recognition, voluntary turnover signals. Improved employee experience A core JRET outcome metric. Mirrored
HR6 HR Technology "What HR systems and tools are currently in use and how well are they adopted across the organisation?" HR Operations & Digital HR HRIS / ATS adoption, integration depth, analytics maturity, automation of admin. Tech enablement of HR Pre-condition for many JR interventions. Mirrored
HR7 Leadership & Management Capability "How capable are your managers at leading, coaching, and developing the best from their teams?" Leadership & People Management Coaching, accountability conversations, team-level KPIs, change leadership. Management Support for Change Cross-references with JR6 in our diagnostic. Mirrored

ID Diagnostic dimension (question text shown to user) IHRP HCDT cross-reference (if any) WSG JRET focus area (primary alignment) Alignment
JR1 Process Efficiency "How streamlined and free of waste are your core daily workflows?" HR Operations Where HR processes are part of the workflow being assessed. Process redesign / lean workflow JRET Step 2 — analyse current state, identify rework & handoff loss. Mirrored
JR2 Role Clarity "How clearly are job roles, responsibilities, boundaries, and accountabilities defined?" Performance Management Role definitions feed into KPI cascading. Job content & role design JRET Step 3 — restructure roles around outcomes, eliminate overlap. Mirrored
JR3 Technology Utilisation "How effectively does your team actually use technology and digital tools day-to-day?" Digital HR Adoption-side cross-link (HCDT addresses it from the HR-systems side). Technology adoption & automation JRET Step 4 — assess automation / AI opportunities in current workflow. Mirrored
JR4 Employee Productivity "How consistently do employees meet their targets and deliver expected outputs on time?" Performance Management Output-side mirror of HR4. Output / throughput KPIs JRET success criterion — productivity uplift vs. baseline. Mirrored
JR5 Workflow Bottlenecks Severity-inverted "Rate the current severity of friction, delays, and handoff failures in your daily operations." — (no direct HCDT mirror) HCDT focuses on people-practice maturity, not operational waste detection. Friction / waste detection JRET Step 1 — surface the symptoms that justify redesign. Inverted scoring (high raw = bad) keeps the JR composite directional. Derived
JR6 Management Support for Change "How committed and supportive is your leadership when it comes to workforce improvement initiatives?" Leadership & People Management Cross-references HR7 — sustained change capacity. Change-readiness & sponsorship JRET pre-condition — without C-suite ownership, redesign efforts fail. Mirrored
C Signal flags · Elitez-original tiebreakers
ID Signal (Yes / No) Why it exists Where it acts in scoring Alignment
SIG1 Repetitive manual tasks present? Surfaces a clear Job Redesign trigger that the 1–5 Likert scale alone may miss. Lead-qualification signal A "Yes" here is a strong predictor of a JR-suitable opportunity even when scores look healthy. JR Priority tiebreaker Combined with SIG2, escalates the borderline 3.0–3.5 band to High Priority. Elitez-original
SIG2 Automation potential identified? Captures whether the respondent already sees automation/AI opportunity in current workflows. WDG(JR+) Component 3 trigger Maps directly to WSG's "Workforce Tech Solutions" (C3) eligibility. JR Priority tiebreaker (with SIG1) Same borderline-band escalation rule. Elitez-original

Alignment legend

Mirrored Mirrored — diagnostic dimension is a direct one-to-one reflection of an HCDT or JRET domain. Same intent, same scope, language adapted for an SME self-rater.
Derived Derived — dimension is informed by JRET methodology but adapted for self-rated severity (with inversion in the score formula).
Elitez-original Elitez-original — added by Elitez specifically for WDG(JR+) lead-qualification; not from HCDT or JRET frameworks.

Honest scope statement (matches the live tool's disclaimer)

This diagnostic is a self-assessment indicator, not a licensed HCDT instrument. The question text, anchors, and 1–5 maturity scale are written by Elitez and methodologically aligned with the publicly-referenced IHRP HCDT pillars and WSG JRET (Feb 2026) framework. Final consultant-validated diagnosis still flows through the official IHRP HCDT process, facilitated by an Elitez consultant on the client's behalf. A co-brand placement therefore funnels qualified leads into the official tool — it does not replace or rebrand it.
