► Multi-Resource Scheduling (MRS) integration and scope► Integration between the different processes in Mercury enables the flow of
relevant information to MRS to aide in identifying appropriate resources► Process of creating resource demands takes place outside MRS at a point
in the opportunity or engagement lifecycle as appropriate ► MRS is used to create resource assignments, once a demand has been
sent to the tool from PPM► MRS time allocations will be used to manage availability when resources
are carrying out activities like training or business development► Resource Schedulers will be able to create demands in PPM and create
time allocations in MRS
Resource Scheduling – Integration and Scope

Resourcing Scheduling — Design Principles Met
► One global process to the demand and supply of staffing across the firm for both client facing and CBS staff
► Single system and process globally for resource assignment
► Global view of resource availability► Single system to request and modify
resource assignment► Enables global resource management
► Direct management of resource during maintenance of engagement economics
► Direct access to resource schedule where appropriate
► Reduced administration associated with resource request process (Resource Scheduler)
► Integration between engagement set up, staffing and reporting process
► Integration with other global tools ► Enables consistency of resourcing data
► Reporting benefits from improved data quality
► Improves efficiency and eliminates duplicate entry of information
► Ability for resource planners to model using soft tagging
► Client servers requesting from opportunity stage
► Cross border resource searches

Creating a Demand - Design Features
Creation of Demand
► Integration with MMT will allow Client Servers to enter their resourcing requirements when pricing or creating an engagement budget
► Requests when pricing will support resourcing of opportunities
► Resourcing information entered in MMT can be high level (e.g. resource rank) or low level (e.g. a specific named individual or a skill set)
► This information will automatically populate the relevant fields in PPM preventing re-keying, and creating the demand, which is passed to MRS
► There will be no approval workflow included in this process
*Creating a demand takes place outside MRS*
![Page 30: Program Mercury Design Overview Sessions Day 2 January 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081421/5681345c550346895d9b40fe/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Page 30
Creating an Assignment - Design Features
Suitable Resource Search
► Integration with GHRS, My Competencies and My Development Site
► Where data is present in these global tools it will be passed to MRS to support in finding a suitable resource
► Possible to view resources globally (where there are no statutory requirements preventing this)
► Cross border resources identified need to be confirmed / assigned with the local resource scheduler
Requesting Named
Resources
► Client Servers can specify a named individual to work on their engagement
► Named requests will be soft assigned on the MRS planning board
► Resources Schedulers will be able to decide if that resource is appropriate in the context of the other demands they are managing
► Training will need to educate that naming a resource does not mean they will definitely be assigned
Assignment Status
► Soft assignments – used to support modelling of resources on the planning board
► Hard assignment – used to confirm who will be working on the engagement
![Page 31: Program Mercury Design Overview Sessions Day 2 January 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081421/5681345c550346895d9b40fe/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Page 31
Maintaining an Assignment - Design Features
Integration with ETC
► Possible to use assigned hours in MRS to create as a starting point to create an ETC
► Possible to pass any changes that relate to resource onto MRS as part of the ETC process
► Modifications will be highlighted to Resource Schedulers in their demand work list
Viewing Schedule
► Email notifications can be configured locally to push link to platform to view your own or a colleagues schedule
► Email content can be tailored in accordance to SL or Area requirements, if necessary
► Individuals with access to manage their own assignments will have a link to make direct changes (to be determine locally)
► Where amendments are necessary individuals will need to contact the Engagement Manager or Resource Scheduler
![Page 32: Program Mercury Design Overview Sessions Day 2 January 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081421/5681345c550346895d9b40fe/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

Create/Maintain Resource Assignment — Known Change Impacts
► Resource request will be generated by the engagement team as a part of their engagement set up
► Global resource information will be available to resource schedulers► New standardized booking status
► The proposed solution standardizes the request process globally► Amendments to resourcing requests can be incorporated as part of the Estimate
to Complete process, if appropriate
► This process designed to fit into any organizational structure either utilizing a local scheduling role, GSS or direct access for individuals
Process
People
Organization and structures
► Single source of data will results in elimination of existing databases ► Supports IT architectural strategy by integrating with global tools onlyTechnology
► Introduction of this process will change the method of requesting staff for client servers
► Current state there is a lot of variation in the way resources are managed – MRS will impact this from a tool perspective
Culture
► Currently no global policy for creating assignmentPolicies

Current GTH/GSS Accounting Models
► GTH operates today with at least with 6 different accounting models:
► Charged Hour model: Hourly blended GTH cost rate per (sub-) service line and country / (sub-)service line specific multipliers to establish billing rate
► Committed Hours model: Fixed price arrangement between GTH and internal customer
► Expert model: Hourly cost rate, but calculated on GTH employee specialization (e.g. SAP basis expert, SAP functional expert asf.)
► Charged FTE model: annually FTE related cost rate table
► Legacy model: Time charges on legacy individual hourly cost rates for GTH usage, if EY member firm is in same country as GTH
► Mixed charges model: Combination of charged and committed hour price model
![Page 42: Program Mercury Design Overview Sessions Day 2 January 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081421/5681345c550346895d9b40fe/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)

Future State
One accounting model for GTH and GSS operations across all services and for all geographies
Generates comparability of all GTH and GSS operation in respect to cost and hours in service lines and geographies
Allows fully automated back-office by using standard in-house cash function, interoperability and interfirm billing
Focus on GTH/GSS usage possibilities instead of GTH/GSS administration
Minimizes GTH and GSS operation cost.
Standardization of accounting model:
![Page 43: Program Mercury Design Overview Sessions Day 2 January 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081421/5681345c550346895d9b40fe/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Page 43
General Model GTH/GSS Description
► Calculate one blended cost rate over all GTH locations per sub-service line and employee
► GTH employee books time directly on local engagement
► GTH employee become “virtual” local employee of engagement country to derive bill rate and generate TER/TNR resp. to avoid blocking rules
► Engagement (margin) and local Profit Center (gross margin) will reflect GTH cost rate
► Billing from GTH to local profit center will be automatically triggered based on consumed hours (usage of global billing center is ensured)
► Legacy employees working for GTH will generate bill automatic invoice between local entity and GTH based on delivered hours
► GSS will adopt the same model

Future Solution
► Segregation of driver elements for GTER, Margin, TNR and Gross Margin
► GTER and Margin should be driven by engagement coding► Service Codes for Service Line reporting► Regional code for Markets reporting► Role code for Performance reporting► Industry code of engagement client for Industry reporting
► TNR and Gross Margin should be driven by people organization coding► Cost Center for Flash reporting► Profit Center for P&L reporting

Advantages of Proposal
► Coding elements are standardized for each reporting dimension and enable easier communication on management layers:► Engagements attributes driving Market/Service/Industry dimension► People attribute driving capacity and financial dimension
► Standardized coding elements generate correct and comparable KPI results, independent from reporting objective or other structural divers (e.g. partner measurement)
► Dividing engagement driven reporting from people driven reporting allow automation of inter-company transaction, without loosing any reporting or analytical capabilities
► Reconciliation between (G)TER and TNR possible

► Cost center data will be use as the base to calculate rates
► Segregation of NSR and Cost Rate+ by► sub-service line, ► economic location and ► activity rate type
► Cost Rate+ will be calculate by following components
► GTH rate will be calculated as blended rate over all GTH centers for each activity rate type
► Employee Rate+ will calculated similar to Direct Rate+ but uses instead of using the standardized direct cost (1), the individual payroll is applied for this component. This rate is used only in exception case, eg. if cost absorption is required.

Internal Advice Projects
► Internal advice internal project to be set up for any work performed by the SL for EYG or EY internally
► Depending on threshold of project this will drive the approval process
► Same behavior as external engagements (revenue, utilization, NSR and sales credit)
► Proposal as exception to internal project to initiate project creation through CRM to drive sales credit metrics for opportunity and sales partner
► For presentation purposes on financial statements revenue will be identified as “internal revenue”

Internal Advice Projects - Accounting
► Separate revenue account in order to segregate this type of revenue from our external client revenue
► No WIP management associated with project ► Revenue recognition will be performed on internal advice
projects to provide the TER metrics to the partner on the internal advice project.
► Resource cost center will get TNR through the purchase/sold time entries in financial accounting
► Strict governance in place to control use internal advice
