iits Feedback Evaluation System

Turn Feedback Into Real Growth — Without Politics

Meet the iits Feedback Evaluation System (FES): a proven, human-first feedback process turned into a web application — built in one of Germany’s leading New Work tech companies and refined for over three years.

The result: feedback sessions that are respectful, actionable, and development-focused — independent from salary talks and free from hidden agendas.

From ad-hoc notes to a clear session summary — FES turns scattered feedback into actionable development.

Built on Practice. Improved Continuously.

3+ years of real feedback sessions

We’ve been giving each other feedback at eye level for years — and we kept improving the process based on what actually works in day-to-day collaboration.

Behavior & impact — not personality

Our sessions focus on observable behavior and its impact in the workplace. Clear, supportive, and concrete.

Separated from compensation

Feedback stays developmental — not transactional. No salary negotiations, no “performance theater”.

What Is FES?

FES is a web application that supports a structured feedback process end-to-end: collecting input via surveys and ad-hoc notes, preparing it professionally, and running a facilitated feedback session — including opt-in AI-assisted summarization.

Feedback managers are supported in every step to keep operational overhead low. Our process boils down to configuration of Surveys → collection of feedback → refinement and session preparation → facilitated session → protocol → deletion.

Built for New Work — Transferable to Classic Organizations

FES is developed by iits-consulting — a team of 140+ experts in IT, product management, and AI research. We’ve delivered large-scale projects and built a culture where appreciation is not a slogan, but a practice.

We've created the Feedback Evaluation System primarily for us, since our process emerged in a hierarchy-light New Work environment — but it can be adapted to more traditional models. It is a rebrandable product for companies, teams, and departments that want to grow from the inside out — with feedback that is structured, fair, and genuinely helpful.

Many of us have experienced “islands” of appreciation inside large corporations (e.g., within development teams). FES helps teams and departments turn these islands into a repeatable growth factor — without forcing a culture that doesn’t fit.

Capture ad-hoc feedback

When a work situation creates the need to give immediate feedback, it’s recorded in FES — fast, simple, and available anytime.

Run targeted annual feedback sessions

Once a year, every employee can receive a dedicated feedback conversation based on an individual survey.

Enable personal growth & development

Feedback sessions are designed to help people improve their behavior, collaboration, and impact — sustainably.

Two feedback managers refine the same summary at the same time. Significant terms light up as they type, and the raw feedback shows which ones the summary already covers.

Maximum Privacy. Minimal Tech Bloat.

Data stored only as long as necessary

Feedback data is retained only for the time it’s needed — and deleted after the session protocol is delivered.

GDPR-compliant AI summarization

The AI used is GDPR-compliant and supports the process by reducing repetition and making large feedback sets manageable.

Minimal JavaScript / Node stack (except htmx)

FES deliberately avoids as much as possible JavaScript- and Node-based web technologies — with the exception of htmx and Yjs. Less complexity, fewer moving parts.
