Annual appraisals alone rarely deliver meaningful results. Forms are completed once a year, feedback varies across teams, and good intentions often disappear under daily pressures. Meanwhile, leadership seeks clear visibility on performance, engagement, and development needs.
A structured approach to performance and engagement creates a shared language for expectations and feedback. It links roles and competencies to goals, builds regular check-ins throughout the year, and captures input from both managers and employees. Done well, it supports fair decisions, better conversations, and a healthier workplace culture.
At EMCS, we help organisations design and implement performance and engagement frameworks using a secure, web-based platform. Our solution covers competency mapping, ongoing feedback, 180° and 360° review cycles, and engagement surveys, supported by manager training for consistent application.
What is included in Our Service
Surveying platform setup - Establishing a secure, web-based system for ongoing employee engagement and feedback.

Engagement and pulse surveys - Designing and running surveys to measure engagement and key workplace themes.
