From a Knowledge Infusion standpoint, this year is proving to be a record breaking year on all accounts in helping organizations drive strategic value from HR technology investments. We would be blind and short-sighted if we didnt see that all around us, organizations are dealing with budget cutbacks and much more scrutiny around investments throughout the enterprise. Organizations are continually weighing the value of core HRMS solutions vs. talent management technologies.

 

Please see the attached InformationWeek article on how CIO's are dealing with a tough economy. A few key points:

  1. Few New Hires
  2. Hold Off On Upgrades
  3. IT Inventory of High Potential Projects

As the HR spac continues to look at investments in technology, it is more important than ever to make these investments BUSINESS SYSTEMS, not HR SYSTEMS. In today's world, don't look for huge upgrade projects or huge ERP investments, look for quick-win, low hanging fruit, value-add investments to continue.

ROI of Humans

Posted by Jason Averbook Oct 25, 2007

As part of the Knowledge Infusion Workforce Intelligence practice, we are continually working with organizations to understand the value of their "greatest asset", their people. As part of this practice, we also try to help organizations understand that creating a business case is much easier and always more successful if we can capture some of these measures.

 

During the HCM StrategyMap work we conduct, we commonly meet with the CFO to understand their views on human capital and capture their vision as to how to measure the impact of people in the business.

 

 

 

 

 

 

In today's CFO.com online article, a great piece on the measurement of people and the notice of trends that are occuring, in this case in investment banks, to measure people as investments instead of just costs.

 

 

 

"The banks are beginning to introduce a range of metrics, such as

attrition of top-quartile performers...and incorporate them into

business planning, aided by significantly improved HR information

technology"

 

 

Lets keep this discussion going. What are you doing in your organization or if you are a vendor or consultant, what are you doing for your customers to help them measure the true value of people?
