What it does

Scans the role catalogue and seniority model for rare or niche needs — specialist domain knowledge, technical capability, language or geography requirements — and judges which the firm is unlikely to have on the bench. Used once the resourcing model is drafted, to surface where subcontractors or associates may be needed. A judgement call on rarity and fit.

Trigger: Use once the resourcing model is drafted, to surface specialist needs that may require external sourcing before staffing commitments are made.
