Uncontrolled hiring is the fastest way to burn budget
In most organizations, the process of adding people — whether full-time hires, contractors, or extensions — is scattered across email chains, spreadsheets, and Slack messages. Nobody has a clear picture of total people spend until it's too late.
🚨

Rogue Hiring

Managers open positions and make offers without Finance or HR visibility. By the time leadership finds out, the budget is blown and the offer letter is already signed.

📧

Email-Based Approvals

Approval chains buried in email threads. Who approved what? When? Was Finance ever looped in? Nobody knows — and nobody can prove it during an audit.

📉

Zero Budget Visibility

Finance builds a headcount plan in January. By March, nobody knows how much has been committed vs. spent. Overspend on people is the #1 budget risk for most companies.

A gate on every entry into your organization
ReqCanvas enforces a rigid, configurable approval flow for every type of people request. Nothing moves forward without the right sign-offs — and every step is tracked, timed, and auditable.
👤

Request to Recruit

Before a job posting goes live, the request must pass through HR, the department head, Finance (for budget validation), and executive sign-off. Position details, salary band, justification, and start date — all captured and routed automatically. No more unauthorized headcount.

Offer Employment

Once a candidate is selected, the offer itself goes through its own approval chain. Salary, equity, signing bonus, start date, and employment type are reviewed by HR, compensation committees, and Finance before the offer letter is generated. Every offer is policy-compliant.

🔄

Contract Extensions

Contractor and temp worker extensions are easy to miss — until the invoice arrives. ReqCanvas alerts you 30, 60, and 90 days before contract expiry. Extension requests route through the same approval chain as new hires, with full budget impact analysis.

🔔

Account Alerts

Proactive notifications for compliance reviews, certification expirations, probation milestones, visa deadlines, and custom triggers. HR teams stay ahead of critical events instead of firefighting after deadlines pass.

70% of operating budget is people cost

For most organizations, people are the single largest line item — 60-80% of total operating budget. Yet the process of adding people is often the least controlled. No CFO would approve a $120K equipment purchase over email, but that's exactly how most hiring decisions are made.

ReqCanvas treats every person entering your organization as what they are: a significant financial commitment that deserves the same rigor as any other major expenditure. Multi-step approvals, budget validation at every stage, and a complete audit trail that satisfies internal governance and external auditors.
