One Source of Truth

Skills, behaviours, and grades defined once in YAML — used everywhere, by humans and machines alike.

Human + Machine

Career frameworks and AI agent profiles derived from the same foundation. Co-located in the same files.

Data-Driven

Plain YAML files. No vendor lock-in. Your data, your way. Different installations use the same model.

Ready to Deploy

Works at the command line, in VS Code, and on the web — meeting engineers where they already work.

"The aim of leadership should be to improve the performance of man and machine, to improve quality, to increase output, and simultaneously to bring pride of workmanship to people." — W. Edwards Deming

Forward Impact Team puts this into practice. Organizations define what great engineering looks like — skills, behaviours, and career levels — in a shared framework. Engineers gain clear expectations, career paths, AI assistance, and knowledge systems matched to their standards. When the path forward is clear, engineers deliver with confidence and pride.
