The company is a technology consulting and engineering firm supporting the banking, financial services, and insurance sector.
Its teams work across strategy, engineering, and innovation, helping clients solve complex business and technology problems through custom digital solutions.
Managing evaluations across more than 100 employees and 20+ teams required a structured process for self-reviews, manager feedback, HR review, approvals, and team-level completion tracking.
Each evaluation needed to move through multiple stages, from employee submission to manager feedback, employee discussion, HR review, next-level approval, and completion.
Result: A connected performance review management system where employees, managers, HR, leadership, forms, ratings, statuses, and team dashboards operate from one structured environment.
In practice, that meant:
The company initially used Google Forms to collect employee self-reviews.
This helped capture basic responses such as accomplishments, areas for improvement, and review comments.
As the process expanded across 100+ employees and 20+ teams, Google Forms became difficult to manage as the main review system.
Each submission needed to connect with employee records, manager feedback, HR review, approval status, ratings, team dashboards, and completion tracking.
Without that structure, coordination depended on manual follow-up, and teams had limited visibility into the status of each evaluation.
The company needed one system to manage the review cycle from employee submission through final approval.
Each evaluation is managed as a structured record.
The record includes the employee name, employee ID, designation, joining date, department, reporting manager, team, review cycle, review date, status, manager rating, and feedback.
This gives HR, managers, and leadership one place to review employee details, feedback, ratings, status, and approvals.
The review cycle follows a clear progression:
In AnyDB, status options can include:
This helps each stakeholder understand what needs attention and who owns the next step.
Employees complete a structured self-review form during the cycle.
The form captures key accomplishments and areas for improvement, giving employees a consistent way to describe their work, progress, and development needs.
Each submission becomes part of the evaluation record, giving managers direct context for their feedback.
Managers review employee submissions and add feedback inside the same record.
The rating grid standardizes evaluations across key areas:
Each category can be rated using defined options such as:
The system also captures overall manager feedback, HR or executive feedback, and an overall rating.
After the employee and manager complete their discussion, the final version moves to HR for review.
The next-level manager can then approve the final outcome, keeping the approval path visible and tied to the same evaluation.
This creates a clearer handoff between managers, HR, and leadership during each cycle.
Team dashboards give managers and HR visibility into review progress across teams.
Each dashboard can show the team name, manager or lead, review cycle, date, team size, submitted reviews, completed forms, and completion percentage.
AnyDB forms allow the company to share the review template with employees and teams. Each submitted form connects back to the system, keeping responses, feedback, status updates, and completion tracking in one place.
This reduces manual coordination during review cycles and keeps each submission tied to the correct employee, manager, team, and status.
A more structured evaluation process across 100+ employees
Clearer coordination across employees, managers, HR, and leadership
Better visibility into status and completion progress across 20+ teams
More consistent manager feedback and rating criteria
Reduced manual follow-up and a reusable structure for future review cycles
Each evaluation becomes the central record. Self-review responses, manager feedback, ratings, HR comments, executive input, status, and final approval stay connected throughout the cycle.
Managers get the structure they need to evaluate employees consistently. HR gains visibility into progress and completion. Leadership gets a clearer view of review activity across teams.
The system can support future cycles by reusing the same structure and adapting fields, rating criteria, forms, dashboards, and approval stages as the company’s process evolves.
This gives the company a flexible operational system for managing performance reviews at scale across teams, managers, employees, HR, and leadership.
