Automation is key to ensuring a good and a robust HR management system in a small organisation. An HRMS which offers complete automation of HR processes should comprise the top requirement of an HR management system.

Customisation

A service provider’s ability to customise a solution according to a client’s requirement is very important. A small organisation has many more specific processes to be incorporated into the system and the choice of a service provider should depend on the flexibility to customise. It is important that the solution is altered to suit an organisation’s policies and operational methods, as opposed to the organisation changing its processes to suit the technology.

Easy administration

Small organisations do not have the resources to employ specialists to manage the HRMS. The HRMS should be simple and easy to administer for any HR professional.

Economic viability

Last, but not the least, is the cost effectiveness of a solution. Small organisations which operate under limited resources are in need of solutions which can not only be economic, but are also able to demonstrate cost savings from automation within a reasonable time period.
