Total cost includes licenses, setup, migration, training and integration maintenance. Separating those items makes a subscription, a quotation and an internal spreadsheet comparable.

Configured HICE base rates, monthly per MAIN/BASIC user. Check the Pricing page for applicable tier, contract, taxes and Enterprise terms. Example in the LATAM tier: 5 MAIN + 25 BASIC = 147.00 USD/month. Assuming 1,000 for onboarding and 24 internal hours at 30, year one totals 3,484.00 USD. Additional budget inputs are assumptions.
The free plan includes up to 10 employees and 5000 CVs for companies; 500 CVs for freelancers.
For AI, separate the HICE subscription from any assistant plan and provider usage. Model requests, data volumes and review work; check included connections and limits. Reference rate
Define the outcome and records
For this topic the control starts with skills, availability and future allocations.
Resource planning compares available capacity and assigned work over a period. Consultant management adds skills, role and availability. Contract capacity, availability after absence and assigned hours must stay separate to expose overload.
Define period, skill and availability, then link the assignment to a project. Hypothetical example: 40 hours minus 8 absent and 24 assigned leaves 8 hours. Compare remaining capacity with the next request.
A pilot on the complete workflow
Compare someone with 50% availability with someone allocated at 100%. Try filling a future request: the right skill does not free a person whose time is already committed.
Before the demo, write three required outcomes and one acceptable tradeoff. Value recovered time only after measuring on the same basis. Have the actual owner complete a cycle and retain errors, corrections and final output. If the pilot stops halfway, identify the missing module, integration or step in the quotation.
Rules, exceptions and work cost
Define who enters, corrects and approves records. Test an incomplete record, a duplicate and a change after closure. The decision changes when records can be exported with relationships rather than manually reconstructed. Count licenses, onboarding, team time and integration maintenance separately.
Apply the workflow in HICE
HICE connects consultant skills and availability to client requests and projects. Planning becomes valuable when sales can see who can work, when they can start and which workload is already assigned.
