Drivers for PPS Replacement • PPS is almost 30 years old and no longer meets the highly complex and evolving operational needs of the University. • There are 11 different variations of PPS in use today throughout the University, which are costly and risky to maintain and support. • The limitations of PPS drive workload redundancy and process inefficiency. • PPS must be replaced in order to streamline and standardize payroll and HR operations. Background & Goals
Drivers for Shared Services Center • HR/APO/payroll/timekeeping operations support approximately 185,000 UC employees. • About 6000 FTEs performing HR, payroll and timekeeping duties at a cost of over $500 million annually. • HR and payroll staff to the number of employees served was higher at UC than at 90% of benchmarked organizations. • Significant opportunities remain for improving payroll and certain HR services. Background & Goals
Payroll FTE • UC is far below the 10th percentile of the Pricewaterhouse Coopers benchmark • Other metrics, such as employee count and total W-2s, result in staffing at far less than the 10th percentile. • NOTE: Numbers reflect UC-wide findings. Individual campus numbers may vary. • HR FTE Background & Goals Benchmark Standards UC UC Benchmark Standards • UC is below the 10th percentile of the Pricewaterhouse Coopers benchmark • Other benchmarks, such as College and University Professional Association, result in similar findings. • NOTE: Numbers reflect UC-wide findings. Individual campus numbers may vary.
Two Distinct Projects with Different Goals Background & Goals PPS Replacement • Single payroll and HRIS solution for all UC • Real-time payroll processing • Improved analytical reporting & decision-making UCPath Functions and Capabilities Enabled through standardization and simplification Benefits HRMS Time and Attendance Payroll Financial Systems Integration Shared Service Center • Centralized and off-site dedicated customer support staff to provide accurate and timely information by phone, email or chat • Manager/employee self-service • Payroll and HR services delivered at substantially lower cost than today
Keys to Success • Keys to Success • Organization Readiness/Willingness to Change Major change requires extraordinary commitment, patience and some hard decisions. • Scope Management Changes to the project plan or system will be made sparingly and collaboratively with careful consideration of tradeoffs. • Speed of Decision Making This project will need to maintain significant momentum, resolving issues efficiently and effectively. While broad input will be needed and sought, committee consensus with extended deliberations will not always be possible. • Vendor Management Oracle will play a critical role during implementation and in ongoing operation of the hosted technology platform. Both Oracle and UC will need to be diligent about their respective accountabilities, including service quality and issue management. Background & Goals
Collaborative Design • Teams representing all campus & medical centers participate in the design of future business processes • Business process will be designed once for all locations at the beginning, not for each wave. • Cross-functional design team determined scope of services and blueprint for the new UCPath Center • PMOs from all locations meet regularly with the central UCPath PMO • Project governance includes representation from all locations Project Approach
Phased Implementation Project Approach 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 Phase 1: Human Resources and Payroll; UCPath Center Phase 2: Time and Attendance Wave 1 locations will be the first locations to implement Phase 1 and Phase 2. • UCLA/UCLA Medical Center/ASUCLA • UC Merced • UC Santa Cruz • UCOP Phase 3: Integrated Portal; additional HR functionality Phase 1: Implement HR, Payroll and GL integration solutions, replacing PPS ”must-have” functionality, improving core HR and payroll processing capability and supporting HR analytics and decision support. Phase 2: Implement systemwide time and attendance capability, significantly reducing business process redundancies, shadow systems and paper processing. Phase 3: Achieve end-to-end integration with expanded HR functionality, a UC-wide protal to facilitate access to all systems.
“Waved” Technology Rollout • Implementation will take place in several waves made up of small groups of campuses/medical centers. • Each wave is able to execute more efficiently and effectively by building on the experience and lessons learned in the previous wave. • The “wave” approach: • Manages risk • Builds momentum • Provides proof of success • UCSD is a Wave 2 campus Project Approach • UCOP
Overall Scope • Implement PeopleSoft as a replacement system for PPS • Mapping PPS data to PeopleSoft • Configure, build, test and launch of PeopleSoft environment • Training on interactions with PeopleSoft • Creation of shared services center • Facility selection and build out • Technology assessment, selection and installation • Facility staffing • Staff training • Campus activities associated with technology roll out • Tier 1/Tier 2/Tier 3 interfaces • Bi-weekly payroll conversion for non-exempt • Other activities as identified • Business Process Design • Documentation of “as is” and “to be” processes • Training on modified/new processes Project Approach
PPS Replacement (Oracle On Demand and Campus Technology Projects)
Integration Guiding Principles • Reduce or eliminate the amount of dual entry between PeopleSoft and other systems • Ensure that the business requirements are met by allowing well-defined integration of internal and 3rd party systems to PeopleSoft • Facilitate meeting the vision and requirements set by the UC PeopleSoft implementation program, including an integration architecture that serves as a foundation for the system into the future • Facilitate the streamlining and standardization of current processes and business practices. PPS Replacement 20
PPS is More Than Just a Payroll System PPS Replacement PPS is highly customized with a broad spectrum of functionality that is not typically integrated in one system. Replacing PPS with a modern system means disentangling the parts. PPS today is a single system that performs many different functions. When replaced, there will be separate modules for HR, Timekeeping, Benefits and Payroll as part of PeopleSoft. There will also be integration between Payroll and campus financial systems.
Interface Consolidation PPS Replacement Fifteen Becomes One Future State Consolidated Current State • Consolidated Integration Architecture 22
UCPath Future State PPS Replacement Integration architecture diagram 23
Interface Definitions PPS Replacement Tier 1 Interfaces: Tier 2 Interfaces: Tier 3 Interfaces: Any system, application, process or business dependency that relies on directly using or connecting with UCOP PPS data or functionality. Any system, application, process or business dependency that relies on directly using or connecting with ACT systems level data or functionality. Any system, application, process or business dependency that relies on directly using or connecting with the ACT Data Warehouse or any campus department shadow system. Our objective is to provide a Data Warehouse with Payroll/HR data that closely resembles what is available today and to make the information accessible in a similar way as in the current state. However there will likely be some data changes based on business process re-engineering, which will in turn change the type of data captured and propagated. 24
Next Steps • A Data mapping document will be available, in the next 3-4 months, that identifies the data changes that will enable the campus systems to start planning. • A QA/Build environment for the Data Warehouse, will be made available, in the next 6-8 months, to facilitate the campus/department level retrofit activities. • Work will continue with system-wide and/or UCSD gap analysis with gap closure through: • PeopleSoft modification/customization (not desired) • Change in business process, practice or policy • Adoption of two pay cycles system-wide (monthly and bi-weekly) • Interfaces/Data Warehouse/Application Development • MTE (My Time Entry) • Interface inventory, strategy and execution • Data cleanup PPS Replacement
Bi-weekly Payroll Conversion Recommendations • The Functional Requirements Work Group recommends to the Management Work Group that pay cycles be standardized for the University of California as follows: • Academic appointees will be paid monthly • Exempt campus staff will be paid monthly • Most medical center employees will continue to be paid biweekly ( for San Diego, this will be ALL medical center employees) • All non-exempt employees will be paid biweekly • Employees who have both exempt and non exempt appointments will default to BW. PPS Replacement
Bi-weekly Payroll Conversion Updates • Work group formed at UCOP to address BW conversion for all campuses. First meeting will be 16 May 2012 • Due to project schedule extension new timeline is being considered for UCSD bi-weekly conversion. Process of consulting labor relations beginning. • Currently, departments are advised against converting or bringing new employees on as BW sub 1. • Timekeeping system and PPS conversion in process to accept exception time reporting (sub 1) bi weekly. • More information expected by the end of June as we begin implementation planning.
