We’ve previously discussed how to know if you need HCM (Human Capital Management), and then how to prioritize your HCM needs. Now let’s go shopping. When talking to an HCM vendor, you want to make sure they understand the solutions your company is looking for. You know your business better than anyone else, so when investing in an HCM solution, it’s critical that the system solves the issues most important to your organization. Here are some questions to ask an HCM vendor that will help you sort through them and pick the right one for you.
Implementation
- What is the implementation time frame?
- Is there an implementation person/team/point of contact?
- Can some modules be implemented and then others added as you grow?
- Do we need support from our IT department to implement the system?
- How does the initial data get collected?
Training
- How is training handled? Is there in-house training? How many hours?
- Are there FAQs online?
- Is there ongoing support?
Platform
- How secure is the system so we know our data is safe?
- Does the system update in real time? Is it cloud-based?
- What is the system’s speed? Is there a backup of the data?
- How scalable is the system? Is there a limit to the number of employees?
