Where Policy Gets Its Power
Great relocation policies don’t happen by accident.
At NuCompass, we believe your mobility policy should be a living, breathing asset… not a dusty PDF collecting virtual cobwebs. Whether you’re building from scratch, refreshing an outdated model, or scaling globally, our Client Relations team brings the experience, data, and strategic thinking to make it happen.
We don’t just give advice. We create frameworks that work for your people and your business.

A lawsuit and a dented piano.
Here’s what really happens when employees are told to “figure it out” on their own—and why providing vetted suppliers is the smarter (and safer) play.

Tech-Powered Policy Insights
How technology supports reporting & analytics
With CoPilot, clients have real-time visibility into benefit usage, exception trends, and spend breakdowns. We use this data to:
- Fine-tune policy design
- Identify where tiering helps or hurts
- Spot underutilized benefits
- Forecast future needs
- Reduce exceptions
Benchmarking That Transforms Data into Smarter Decisions
Don’t guess. Compare.
Your relocation program isn’t operating in a vacuum. Whether you're scaling up, scaling back, or just trying to stay competitive, real data is your best decision-making tool. That’s where benchmarking comes in.
But remember, it’s not just about the numbers. We translate insights into action:
- Identify underused or overextended benefits
- Fine-tune policy tiers and eligibility
- Align spend with business goals
- Support DEI, early-career, and executive mobility strategies
- Elevate your talent value proposition
We analyze your current program against:
- Industry standards. What’s typical across the mobility landscape
- Peer organizations. How companies like yours are structuring programs
- Regional & global best practices. What’s trending across markets, industries, and regi
No Filler. No Fluff. Just sharp analysis to help your mobility program work harder for your business.
