Annual companion 2027

The Invictix Annual Companion 2027

Dates and checklists for the metalworking company: what has to be done in the year, at a glance.

An A4 softcover workbook meant for a pen: all deadlines of the year, a double page for every week, all the checklists from the ten books of the Invictix series, sorted by what the company does.

Not a textbook. Anyone who wants to know why reads the book; the workbook points to book and chapter. It says what has to be done by when. The workbook is in German.

Edition 2027, in preparation.

Sold to businesses only.

What is in the workbook

Around 184 pages, A4, softcover like the books of the series. Little text, many lines, boxes and fields to fill in. The page count is provisional.

  • How to use the workbook

    Four pages at the start: what the workbook is and is not, the weekly routine on Fridays (15 minutes), the monthly routine, how to use a checklist and who in the company keeps which pages. Plus legal status and disclaimer as in the books.

  • The year calendar

    All deadlines and dates of the year, month by month: taxes, bank, quality, personnel, site, customers. Every date with the person responsible, the source and the book that explains the background, and a box for "done". Dates without a verifiable source are not included.

  • The checklists of the ten books

    All the checklists from the appendices of the books, sorted by topic instead of by book: figures and cash, order and production, quality, leadership and personnel, site, customers and market, costing, succession, defence technology and approval, "when things get tight". Each one as a table with columns for item, person responsible, deadline and remarks, with a "How to proceed" block: when, who, with what, and what to do if the answer is no.

  • Copy templates and index

    16 pages to copy: 13-week plan, failure cost calculation, inspection plan, annual plan on one page, key figures sheet and the templates for employee conversations – annual review, return-to-work talk, critical feedback, notes for the conversation on the move, and the conversation when someone leaves. At the end an index of all the checklists and the list of the ten books.

A double page for every week

53 double pages, every week built the same way: on the left the week with deadlines and figures, on the right room to write. Fifteen minutes on Fridays, then the week is closed; every Friday has a line ready: "What I take into next week".

On the left, every week

  • The deadlines that fall into this week, taken from the year calendar, plus lines for Monday to Friday for your own appointments.
  • The three figures of the week: overdraft, receivables over 45 days and order backlog.
  • Three figures from the shop floor, each compared with the previous week: complaints (number, of which open), rework in hours and sickness (days absent and number of people ill).

On the right, to write in

  • What went well
  • What went badly
  • Notes
Status and limits

Every date carries its source: a law with its section, a standard with its number, a contract or the company's own rule. Tax deadlines are to be checked with the tax adviser; for deadlines from standards the rule is "according to the standard, check with the certification body or welding supervisor". Deadlines change: the status is stated in the imprint of the workbook, and every annual edition is reissued in December. The workbook does not replace legal or tax advice.
