Once again, as part of blogging from the Strategic e-HR Conference in San Diego. As part of the luncheon at the event, I had the opportunity to sit with customers who are thinking about automating and transforming the talent management process in their organizations. It was quite an interesting conversation and wanted to remind our customer base and other readers about a few key things:
Oracle as part of their EBS suite and PeopleSoft as part of the Enterprise suite had and still have good solutions for talent management that work for many organizations in the marketplace today.
Integration with the core HRMS solution offered by Oracle / PeopleSoft is very important and is very hard to duplicate if only using third party solutions.
Oracle / PeopleSoft continue to spend a great amount of time and resource listening to their customers and enhancing the functionality of these products.
Talent Management is still in its infancy and if you are a customer of Oracle/PeopleSoft, you more than owe a look at these vendors; do not eliminate them from a process based on what you might have heard in the past. Their products continue to evolve and come along. I state this based on customers thoughts that I heard about what was in releases of Oracle or PeopleSoft 3-5 years ago, which is not a valid comparison to other vendors in the marketplace.
Once again, Knowledge Infusion believes in having a strategy for talent management and then enabling that with whatever technology makes the most sense at the right time in an organization. These are the types of conversations happen at these events that can prove very valuable for all.
