HumanConcepts OrgPlus Enterprise 4.0 Now Available

Award-Winning Workforce Planning Platform Drives Key Solutions that Enable

 Organisations to Rapidly Adapt to Workforce Change

Exeter, United Kingdom — 1 DECEMBER 2009 — HumanConcepts, the leading provider of workforce decision support solutions, today announced the launch of OrgPlus Enterprise 4.0. This significant release extends the power of the OrgPlus Enterprise SaaS platform to help organisations adapt their workforce to ever changing conditions. With the new additions of succession planning, access to historical information for comparison purposes, enhanced HR data visualisation and visual employee directory capabilities, OrgPlus Enterprise enables greater visibility into past and present organisational information in order to more effectively plan for future scenarios.

Along with the new version of OrgPlus Enterprise, HumanConcepts is unveiling its new Workforce Decision Support Solutions that leverage the strengths of the OrgPlus Enterprise platform to solve specific business challenges. The solutions are designed to help Executives, HR, Finance and the general employee population quickly answer workforce-related questions, plan for workforce change, and make better decisions. Solution areas include:

  •  
    • Find: Visual Employee Directories
    • View: HR Data Visualisation
    • Understand: Workforce Analytics
    • Plan: Workforce Planning, including Org Design, Reorganisations and
      Succession Planning
    • Manage: Manage Organisational Hierarchies
    • Separate and Retain: Manage Employee Transitions   

OrgPlus Enterprise 4.0 combines the proven benefits of visualisation with advanced modelling technology. The SaaS solution makes workforce information easily accessible to employees, managers and executives for greater visibility and improved workforce decision making. The new benefits of
OrgPlus Enterprise 4.0 include:

  • Improved workforce visibility – past, present and future.  New features combine to provide a clearer picture of where the workforce has been (archiving), the current state (duplicate record handling, improved directory) and future (succession planning) so you can more easily understand workforce dynamics over time and plan for change.

Organisational continuity. Succession planning ensures organisational continuity. With the ability to quickly make and modify future plans, organisations mitigate the risks of unexpectedly losing key employees or skill sets.

  • Employee communications. Improved OrgTree and phonetic search make it easier to locate individuals in the organisation, regardless of division or geography.

New Features in OrgPlus Enterprise 4.0

·         Succession Planning. OrgPlus Enterprise Succession provides a practical, intuitive way to rapidly implement succession plans for key positions, departments or the whole company. The solution enables HR and departmental managers to mitigate succession risk by using the familiar context of the org chart to find, evaluate and assign employees. 

·         Archive and Compare. The optional module enables you to take a snapshot of the current organisation and use it as a benchmark against plans for future growth. Gain a better understanding of workforce performance vis a vis other business factors, such as revenue, seasonal variances, and management level.

·         Phonetic Search.  Phonetic search allows OrgPlus Enterprise users to search the directory for words that sound similar to the entered search text. For instance, a search on the name "Mayer" will return results for "Meyer," "Meier," and "Mayor." 

·         Duplicate Record Handling. Duplicate records (employees reporting to more than one manager) are configured to better represent primary relationships. This capability aids current understanding of the organisation and helps in planning initiatives, as costs and other metrics can now be more accurately allocated by reporting relationship

·         OrgTree Sorting.  Users can now sort the OrgTree in the same way the chart is sorted. For large organisations, this provides users easier, more intuitive chart navigation.

“This new release of OrgPlus Enterprise enhances a solution platform that drives key business planning decisions,” said Martin Sacks, HumanConcepts President and CEO. “OrgPlus Enterprise enables HR, line of business and department managers to gain greater visibility into their workforce and delivers a powerful platform for planning – enabling them to not only determine their next moves, but also develop their game plan for the future.”
