Strategy

HR Transformation

Rethink how your people, processes and technology work together. We start from your HR strategy, not from a vendor's roadmap, and stay until the change holds.

Sound familiar?

  • You're being asked for a new HR system before HR has agreed what it should do.
  • Several countries, several systems, and no shared picture of how HR operates.
  • A transformation that was announced and bought, but never quite landed with the people it was meant for.

What we do

Three kinds of work, usually in this order.

You can start with any of them. Most clients start with the first and are glad they did.

Before any system

HR technology strategy

Where HR should be in three years, which capabilities that takes, and what technology should and shouldn't do. The result is a strategy the board can read and a landscape plan IT can act on.

  • HR operating model and capability map
  • Technology landscape and roadmap
  • Investment case for leadership

Choosing a system

HR system selection

Requirements that come from your operating model rather than a vendor's feature list, a shortlist worth the demos, and a decision with a business case attached. The scoring is yours; we bring the method and the experience of having seen the demos before.

  • Requirements and scoring model
  • Vendor shortlist and scripted demos
  • Business case and recommendation

Making it land

Implementation guidance and change

Once the system is chosen, the work shifts to decisions, testing and people. We sit on your side of the table through implementation and design the change with the teams who will live with the result, so adoption holds after go-live.

  • Client-side programme guidance
  • Change and adoption plan
  • Capability building in your own team

How we work

Three habits that shape every HR transformation we take on.

Strategy before system.

No vendor demo until the operating model is agreed. It sounds slow; it is the fastest route to a decision that holds.

Your side of the table.

The shortlist, the scoring and the decision are yours. We prepare them with you and challenge them when needed.

Change is the work, not a workstream.

The people who will use the system are in the design from the start, so adoption isn't something to repair after go-live.

Let's move forward.

Meaningful transformation starts with a conversation. No pitch, no deck, just a first exchange about where you are.
