Write a 4–6 page proposal in which you:
1. Identify the current issues the business is facing based on the details of the scenario, and provide a plan and analysis for an HRIS based on those issues.
2. Provide a blueprint for the new system, and propose a type of HRIS for the organization that you believe is the most efficient and effective. Discuss the function that the HRIS serves, and identify how that system will solve the business issue.
3. Compare and contrast at least three HRIS vendors. Based on this comparison, make a case for the one vendor that you recommend for your client.
4. Determine how you will implement the HRIS using one of the change models discussed in the textbook.

Feedback
System Development Life Cycle: Phases I & II – Planning and Analysis
Take a look at the feedback that I provided by clicking on “view rubric” in your grade book and let me know if you have any questions.
Excellent work detailing the current situation. The details were well thought out and thorough. Great explanation for your plan moving forward. When discussing legacy systems, it is important to consider ongoing compatibility as other systems continue to upgrade. In addition, it is important to consider current needs for the organization to ensure that any legacy systems in place have the ability to meet those expectations. Great work on identifying the new systems needs as well as the personnel that play a role on the change team. When identifying the needs for new HRIS, it is important to evaluate existing systems as well to ensure compatibility upon implementation. Very good work in this area. Additional data needs were clearly identified in addition to the type of data collection the change team plans to use. Great essential questions developed as well. Identifying the ways data will be collected is important because all sources of information are not created equal. While the voice of the employee is helpful to know what resources are needed to make the job efficient, it is equally important to factor in how new implementation can affect other departments and the company overall. Great reasons identified for company to benefit from implementation of HRIS. Very good focus of how this implementation can meet the company needs. Reference requirement was exceeded Great work overall with formatting. No major issues identified.

Late points not assessed (message recevied)
Great rationale provided regarding why implementation fails. Great details provided to discuss the various steps included to ensure the change model is effective. A change model is designed to highlight areas of resistance prior to implementation of new HRIS. Highlighting the differences between change plan models helps to determine what can work best for the identified organization and their specific needs. One specific model does not work for the needs of all organizations. Change models help with communication on all levels to reduce or eliminate resistance or potential issues prior to the process beginning. Good work on identifying the differences between the available models. I like the details included to convey how the selected change model approach contributes to the needs of the identified organization.Great discussion related to roles and the activities that are needed prior to going live. Identifying a specific person within the team to be responsible for the overall change management is essential to avoid confusion and resistance. This person also serves as the primary person that communicates with the selected vendors to ensure details are worked out, timelines are coordinated well, and preparation is done internally prior to implementation. Without identifying this role clearly, confusion is inevitable and many assumptions are made regarding who should be doing what. In addition, each organization is different. The activities needed within the identified organization can be vastly different in a different organization, even in the same industry. As a result, it is important to make sure an understanding of the specific needs for the identified organization are addressed thoroughly for planning purposes. Getting to implementation and finding out that something needs to be backed up and it takes days to do so is devastating and can lead to time loss, production decline, disgruntled employees, etc. Good job addressing these potential challenges. Very detailed cost benefit analysis created. The primary benefit of creating a cost benefit analysis is to help the organization make important decisions related to a return on its investment. In addition, the cost benefit analysis helps to identify resources, additional things work considering for decision making, and potential risks or drawbacks associated with the identified project. Creating an actual matrix (chart), provides an opportunity to see things highlighted at a glance as opposed to having to look through tons of information on separate occasions to find these important details. The chart created highlights good information including the costs associated with the project development. Very good details used to discuss maintenance plans and ways to focus on continued improvement. Maintenance of HRIS seems like an easy concept to implement. However, there are things to consider that are often taken for granted such as the need to have a separate back-up in place within the organization. This could require a log-in on separate systems or manager access. In addition, the timeline for maintenance differs for each system. Some systems require some form of maintenance weekly, end of the day, monthly, etc. Not being familiar with the requirements can cause information to be deleted, overwritten, lost, etc. There can also be space issues within the platform that position individuals to delete information manually to clear up space which is time consuming and possibly dangerous to the organization if someone deletes incorrect files that are needed to make things run. Great research used to support your thoughts. Reference requirement exceeded. As a final note, good formatting overall. The attention to detail was observed throughout. Keep up the great work.
