Fun with Filters! Addressing an HR Challenge

September 1, 2015 The Challenges HR Practitioners Face One of the greatest challenges I faced in my time working as an HR Practitioner was making sure I gave the right information when answering an employee's question.  I've never worked with any company that had the same answer for every employee, especially when dealing with things like benefits, compensation, or vacation policy.  And the challenges for a global company are even greater, especially when policies are all in English ("Because that's the standard!") but your employees only speak French.  Answering a question is easy.  Figuring out how to find the right answer in a language specific employees speak and understand can be maddening. What to Do? Enter our filtering feature for knowledge.  The Dovetail Employee Engagement Suite allows your system admin to set up and apply filters to your knowledge, making sure to show the right information…

Dovetail Launches Certified Workday Integration to Assist HR in Tracking Daily Activities

August 23, 2015 Celebrate! We’re celebrating today, because we are officially a Workday Certified Solution Partner – yes we graduated from the hottest HCM integration university this summer! Commitment Pays Off Two years ago, Dovetail made a commitment with Workday to design, build, and deliver a real time bi-directional integration to help serve the Dovetail and Workday ecosystem, cohesively. It’s a true win-win outcome for both vendor and customers - as anyone with software implementation experience will tell you - getting two technologies integrated together on a project is never easy. One very big pain with custom integrations is accountability – when things go wrong, who is accountable? Is it your internal IT, or perhaps vendor one or vendor two – maybe it’s all three? Which one will own the problem and drive through to resolution, and not just point fingers? Continued Commitment With a…

The HCM Buying Process – Vendor Selection Strategy

employee portal
July 20, 2015 Recently, I wrote about the Sierra-Cedar HR Systems Survey, and how that survey helped me to get multi-million dollar funding for new HCM technology.  While I was writing that entry, it made me think of the next step of the HCM buying process: vendor selection.   In one of my previous roles, I was tasked with evaluating the current technology in place, then providing strategic direction of what to do with our existing HR technology - and how it would benefit our to-be designed HR Shared Services organization.   Once I could prove the most cost-effective long-term strategy for the firm was a rip-and-replace of old for new, I then set my focus on building out our requirements and the vendor selection strategy.   I’ve never been a fan of large RFPs that basically allow the vendor to tick boxes,…

Childhood Hunger in America

HR Service Delivery
June 23, 2015 No Kid Hungry Would you be surprised to know that there are hungry children in America? Especially right now – the summer months are very hard for children who no longer receive supplemental meals from their schools.

We want to help. Please join us in our fight to end childhood hunger in America…
