Four people are involved in every assignment and each one needs something different. Here is the full package as it stands today — what each seat gets, and how the pieces feed each other.
Four Layers
Most mobility products serve exactly one of these and integrate badly with the rest. Bearings runs all four off the same coaching engine, which is what allows the programme layer to see root causes instead of ticket counts.
Assignee Capabilities
Six capabilities, all built on the same underlying model of the person, their destination and their counterparts — so advice compounds across the assignment rather than restarting with every question.
Manager & Programme
The person who runs the programme and the person who runs the team are not the same job, do not need the same data, and should not share a view. Bearings treats them separately.
Seats
Every population type runs on the same platform. What changes is the seat, not a stripped-down feature tier.
| Seat | Who it is for | What is included |
|---|---|---|
| Long-term assignee | Multi-year international transfers | Full coaching suite, counterpart intelligence, dispatch, missions |
| Short-term assignee | Assignments under a year | Full coaching suite, weighted to arrival and early-phase friction |
| Business traveller | Repeat short trips, no relocation | Calendar coaching and counterpart intelligence as the primary motion |
| Permanent transfer | One-way moves and localisations | Full suite, front-loaded to the first year |
| Domestic & regional | In-country and interprovincial moves | Full suite, calibrated to region and city rather than country |
| Partner & family | The accompanying partner and children | Separate daily-life track, age-appropriate support for children |
| Host manager | The destination line manager | Whole-team coaching cards, friction map, handoff guidance, landing plan |
Why the Package Holds Together
Every capability on this page exists in some form somewhere in the market. What does not exist anywhere else is all of them running off one dataset that the assignee has a reason to keep feeding for twelve months. That is the whole argument, and it is why the confidentiality model is not a compliance footnote — it is load-bearing.
We will walk the assignee view, the host manager portal and the programme dashboard against your own destination mix, then build a cost estimate on the call.
