What to look for in Human Resource Management Technology in 2011
Posted by Alexandra Earnley on Tue, Dec 28, 2010 @ 01:50 PM
With 2010 drawing to a close, questions and predictions always begin to arise for the year ahead. What will happen to the economy in 2011? How will this affect unemployment? What new technologies will break on to the market? are all questions that greatly affect the direction of the HR industry in the coming year.
In a recent article by Andrew R. McIlvaine on Human Resource Executive Online, mobile capabilities in HR were highlighted as technology that will grow in 2011. With the mobile capabilities of a system like NuViewHR, managers on the go can approve or deny salary changes, time off requests, training class enrollments, and more right from a Smartphone. For managers to have the ability to keep critical tasks moving forward it increases not only productivity, but workflow as well.

In addition to mobile capabilities helping HR to be more productive and efficient, vendor consolidation is a trend to watch for in 2011, according to McIlvaine.
As an organization, think of how much more efficiently your Human Resource Management operations can run under a single system of record. There is no switching from program to program or having to do data transfers and additional calculations.
When you have separate vendor systems, they must be managed to share information generated. This is done at a cost to the company through a manual paper/ data entry process or automated through expensively managed interfaces and IT resources. Having multiple vendor systems for this process causes unaccounted losses – from both a cost and strategic perspective. NuViewHR provides a significantly lower cost single vendor solution, that is more flexible, and that can be carried out faster than all the rest, increasing your human resource management ROI.
Additionally, having a single system allows organizations to search internal candidates first – before going outside (saving Recruiting $, establishing culture, enabling retention and defining employer brand), do extensive internal candidate performance, job history & salary history readily at hand (hiring the right person saves $), improve retention and employee satisfaction rates (saving recruiting $) and to develop long-term succession and growth plan for employees.
With 2011 right around the corner, what do you think will be the biggest trends in Human Resource Management technology?
