Why companies rethink HCM systems
Replacing outdated HR systems: Many companies are facing the end of maintenance for existing HR systems (e.g. SAP On-Premise). Timely succession planning is crucial for ensuring stable HR processes.
Progressive digitalization of the HR function: The further development of digital HR processes has to be efficient, user-friendly and add value in human capital management.
Relief through automation: Modern HCM systems reduce manual activities, automate routine processes and create scope for strategic HR tasks such as talent or culture management.
Compliance with legal and regulatory requirements: Current data protection and compliance requirements (e.g. GDPR) require HR software that is technically and legally up to date.
Strategic realignment of HR management: Outdated systems slow down strategic HR initiatives. A modern HCM system is the basis for a future-proof, agile HR organization.
Challenges when selecting HCM systems
Unclear provider market: The large number of HCM systems, technologies and license models makes selection difficult. A structured comparison is essential.
Complex system integration: The new HCM system must be seamlessly connected to existing systems such as payroll, ERP or time recording; without media disruptions or data loss.
Ensure acceptance within the company: The success of an HCM system depends largely on acceptance by employees and managers. Targeted change management is required here.
High project implementation costs: System selection and implementation tie up resources. A clearly defined process and experienced project management help to reduce costs and risks.
Ensure future viability and scalability: The chosen solution must not only meet current requirements, but also future requirements. Especially in the event of growth or structural changes.
Minimize the risk of a wrong decision: Without a structured selection, there is a risk of implementing a system that is not suitable. This will affect efficiency, costs and user satisfaction negatively.
An HCM system is more than just technology. It is the backbone of a sustainable HR strategy. Our job is to find a solution for every company that fits today and grows with it tomorrow.
