Our Services-Human Resources Management HRM

Human resource management is undergoing massive change. Global markets and production sites are clashing with country-specific standards and guidelines, and flexible work models are faced with the requirements of knowledge management – the business world of the 21st century no longer knows classic boundaries and static employee processes. But what has become standard practice in sales, marketing, and the editorial room is still at a very preliminary stage in human resources: Professional reengineering of human resource processes that are critical to a company.

The Challenges

Today, heads of human resources are responsible for all of the employees working for a globally operating company. What has changed from a few years back is the fact that international business segments whose employees are scattered all across the globe combine with enormous cost pressure to pose completely new challenges to human resource departments and their managers. At the same time, local guidelines and internationally applicable regulations must be integrated into a transparent human resource management concept. The goal consists of harmonizing a company’s worldwide activities with local and international requirements and aligning IT systems accordingly.

Human resource management, however, has become a difficult organizational and technical balancing act because the changed values held by employees have created a completely new corporate culture. Whereas in the old days, a lifetime tenure of some 40 years in the same company was symptomatic, project-related employment has become one of today’s classic challenges for HR departments.

The problem is the following: Individual employees’ specific knowledge can no longer be tapped ad hoc and may be lost when employees leave the company. Finally, individualized working hours as well as flexible rules for vacation and overtime have created a virtual management chaos. Nowadays, employees and their knowledge rank among a company’s most important capital.

Effects on a Company’s Success

The Information Management Group (IMG) tackles these problems with a well-thought-out concept consisting of organizational and technical solution models. First, our consultants’ approach ensures that classic transactions such as payroll processing can be performed smoothly across the entire company, including any global requirements and regulations. This includes technical measures that can be used to simplify recurring processes and to reduce the cost for human resource management’s everyday tasks. IMG will build a service concept including options for employee and management self-administration on this technical foundation. At this point, a company will be in a position to actively shape human resource development at headquarters and individual branches.

Thus, human resource management will evolve from a reactive factor to providing proactive support for top management because it is only through professional optimization of all human capital management aspects that a company’s entire potential for savings can be utilized.

13 Years of Competence – More than 100 Successful HR Projects

Professional competence and a profound understanding of corporate business processes provide the foundation for all of the services offered by The Information Management Group (IMG) in the field of human capital management. In addition to comprehensive know-how about technical HR processes and solutions, our consultants possess a holistic understanding of human resource departments’ issues from an organizational and social perspective because they have gathered experience as employees or managers in human resource departments in addition to having received technical training and worked on consulting projects.

We as IMG provide our HR services to support you as you travel the path from a transaction-oriented human resource department to value-creating HR management.

To realize these organizational and technical concepts, we use the specialized know-how of three engagement groups: a core, a process, and a technology team. While the core team will provide comprehensive support to the client and be responsible for building basic HR solution architecture, project management, and post-project support, the process team will reorganize HR processes as part of human capital management.

This includes optimizing any relevant transactions in personnel planning and development. Finally, a technology team will be responsible for technical HR software introduction – no matter whether based on SAP, Lotus Notes or proprietary programming.

HR Strategy

IMG’s service concept is comprehensive, covering any demands placed on modern human capital management. After a thorough analysis of the actual situation, experienced consultants collaborate with our clients to develop a clear strategy for human capital management before processes are implemented and the most suitable IT systems for the situation at hand are deployed and integrated into the existing IT landscape. As part of a special efficiency review, a so-called audit, IMG consultants will analyze all or a selected number of a company’s HR processes to be able to determine exactly how economical or effective they are and to proceed with focused implementation of cost-intensive reengineering measures.

IMG has focused on and gathered specific experience on the following areas:

Outsourcing
Benchmarking
Assessments and Coaching
Merger and Acquisitions Integration
Process Redesign
Process audit

Many HR management projects fail during their implementation phase – in spite of sophisticated HR software and intelligently conceived processes: This is due to the fact that even high-performance software and well-thought-out concepts will require profound know-how during final implementation of individual HR components. Our consultants are familiar with the typical pitfalls during HR project and software implementation and will ensure efficient integration into a client’s IT environment.

For years, IMG has possessed special expertise when it comes to implementing SAP technologies. Depending on a client’s specific requirements, our consultants will use either the entire package of SAP’s HR modules or individual components to integrate human resource management processes:

Recruiting
Human Resource Management
Employee Time Management
Payroll
Event Management
ESS / MSS
Authorization
Migration

IMG employs experts with demonstrable expertise that will perform customized adaptation depending on what is required. IMG uses this holistic competence and specific know-how about typical implementation requirements such as “authorization” and “migration” to create the openness that allows it to implement a solution that is optimal for a company’s IT architecture. Above all, this includes detailed project management know-how for each stage of HR module introduction.
