The combination of these two functions, allows us to deliver more powerful reporting and insights. And while every vendor says they are a partner, we truly are one. We not only get your implementation right the first time, we enable you and give you the autonomy and control to make changes year after year. And unlike most, we support every part of your unique configuration. Performio is a partner that will make you a customer for life.

Don’t check every box in our job description? That’s ok! As the Harvard Business Review points out, research conducted by Hewlett Packard shows that men typically apply to jobs when they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, while women and those from marginalized groups tend to only apply when they feel they meet 100%. If you think you have what it takes, but don’t necessarily meet all of the requirements listed in the job description, please still reach out. We’d love to have a conversation to see if you could be a great fit!
