Riordan Manufacturing Hr Integration Project

Human Resource managers, and other key personnel, now have full access to the HRIS system. They will spend a quick week in their own training, acclimating themselves with the quirks of the system and becoming comfortable with common tasks. After this week has passed then a full, company wide training will take place, with the goal of accomplishing two tasks. First, to inform employees of the new HRIS system and some of it’s key features. Second, to set expectations among employees of what their responsibility and interaction with the new system will consist of. A brief mention of some of the high level

The first step in setting up the new Human Resource Application, (HRA), is to gather information about the system requirements and user needs from everyone that will be involved in the startup and rollout of the new system. The process of gathering information from involved stakeholders can be a tedious process if the wrong techniques are used. So, to expedite this in an orderly and timely manner we will be passing out questioners to all members of the Human Resource Department and to all Department heads. Using Questioners will help the IT department get an idea of what requirements are expected from the new system. It is not cost efficient to talk to each employee so, it would be very beneficial for all that every questioner is filled out in a timely manner. We will be emailed to each employee on Monday September 9th, 2013 and would like a response no later than Thursday September 12th, 2013, (for processing purposes). Questioners will also be available on the Employee Web Site under HR applications.

Each phase of the project will be completed within the time that was given. IF the project team cannot complete each phase on time, the project team will work overtime. Each phase of the project will be tested and a detailed report will be created after each phase is completed. The V.P. of operations will sign off the report when each phase is completed. The individuals that will test during each phase of the project will be several members of the HR department. As soon as the HR System has been tested and finalized, each member of the HR department will be trained to operate the new software that will be added to the upgraded HR System.

Since the development team has decided to purchase the Microsoft HR system, Riordan now has access to a very successful end user resource support system. Riordan has agreed to an extended amount of support, both through our development team and Microsoft.

However, if there are any hardware or coding issues that come about, we will be handling the support. With the extended support, HR employees have the ability to be in contact with: telephone support, live chat support, remote desktop support, and interactive demonstrations of the system.

Riordan Manufacturing COO Hugh McCauley is requesting the implementation of a modern, state-of-the-art information system to integrate all existing HR tools into a single application. To achieve the desired goal, a very detailed investigation needs to be performed, studying the actual processes that Riordan Manufacturing currently uses.

These tools will help create a system that will maximize time

The current process takes too many hours to complete the required tasks, so the new updated system must be fast and efficient. All of Riordan Enterprise's locations will move to the new accounting and inventory system; therefore, it must also comply with the existing technology. "Companies are recognizing that not only is the aftermarket profitable, but it also can drive significant competitive advantage as a customer-service differentiator" (Kevin O'Brian 2005)

Actual training will take place over two days so that we can house a large number of employees while working very quickly at training them efficiently. Duration estimated were decided by looking at average training times used by similar businesses and the type of training we are trying to achieve. The overall project budget will be split into 4 quarters to highlight the expenses needed at each time frame. This will help to breakdown the overall budget into smaller more manageable expenses to get more detail into what is being spent and what it is being spent on. These quarterly expenditures will do a lot to keep costs as efficient as possible and provide a closer look at how these resources are being divided.
