British Telecom (BT) has chosen PeopleSoft Enterprise Human Capital Management (HCM) to manage its global workforce.
The product will enable BT to reduce HR administrative costs, provide employees more proactive support and services, and better align employee performance with strategic business objectives for its 100 000 workers.
"To improve productivity and ultimately customer service, HR executives need a comprehensive view of performance data to make intelligent staffing and rewards decisions," says Margaret Savage, director, HR strategy at BT.
"The PeopleSoft solution, through its workforce performance management functionality and self-service tools, will enable BT`s HR community to provide increased support to the business and maximise employee value. PeopleSoft is helping to optimise productivity through the use of the right technology."
With PeopleSoft HCM, managers will be able to instantly assign assessments or training and manage resource allocation online, in real-time. In addition, the solution will enable HR managers to align tactical personnel activities to the company`s strategic goals, and focus on value-added HR functions such as performance management and training.
"PeopleSoft is committed to providing solutions that help organisations plan and execute an enterprise-wide business strategy to streamline, deploy, and align the workforce - driving a higher level of business performance," says Mike Evans, MD of PeopleSoft Africa. "With PeopleSoft`s HR, labour procurement and enterprise performance management solutions, BT is now empowered to stretch the boundaries of its workforce management operations."
PeopleSoft`s HCM suite is currently in use by half of the Fortune 500. The products enable companies to improve workforce performance, reduce administrative HR costs, and streamline employee access to key corporate services and self-service personnel data. PeopleSoft, working with Accenture, will implement the system across BT`s global operations over the next year.
