Planning steps • Establishing project team • Defining system requirements • Performing feasibility analysis • Obtaining support for the HRMS
Step1:Establishing project team • Team leader • Direct responsibility for turning human resources automation into reality • Tasks : • Requirement definition • Feasibility analysis
Planning and design issues • Quality information • High system functionality • Sufficient input, processing, output capability • User appropriateness
Quality information • Planning process succeed only if developers maximize the quality of data incorporated into and created by the system being deigned. • Criteria : • Reliable information • Timely information • Comprehensive • Readable • Significant and relevant
functionality • Modularity • Building block approach to system creation with separate module for each HR application • Utility function • System support capabilities (graphics, word processing) should be identified through requirement definition • Integration and interfacing • Integration and interfacing existing equipment and programs with the new system
input, processing capability • Speed • Efficiency • Information retrieval • Data integrity • DB size and format
output capability • Printing and report design • Security • Distribution needs
User appropriateness • User sophistication • Coding • Documentation
Step2:Defining system requirements • Techniques • Evaluating current system • Evaluating another system • User interview and survey • Business systems analysis • Scenario analysis • Prototyping
Step3:Performing feasibility analysis • Provide estimate of time and cost, not guarantee • Technical evaluation (functional ,technological aspects) Team determines specific technological approaches to meet req. • Administrative evaluation: investigates the impact of org. structure and resource availabilities on the flowing • Staffing ; Training ; vendors ;Schedule • Economic evaluation establish costs, benefits and values of the (existing and proposed ) systems • Cost (acquisition and development, operation, implementation) • Benefit (direct saving cost avoidance intangible benefits) • Economic: calculation of cost and benefit under other considerations
Step4:Obtaining support for the HRMS • Convincing managers to support the project • Proving evidence through cost-benefit analysis in F.S • Unexpected problems: • Unexpected employee turnover • Lack of vital information • Poor communication • Lack of understandings • Changing management demand • New security and privacy • New government regulations
