Management has expressed the possibility to implement a new Human Resource Information System (HRIS) with the ability to interact with the payroll functions. The current HR process has several draw backs that are impacting GenRays. In Addition, the payroll function currently does not interact with the HR process effectively. GenRays’ current human resource functions has several drawbacks that has hindered the company from growing and expanding. The First drawback is the ability to recruit the best applicants for positions both internally and externally. Internally, employees are limited on their ability to apply for positions with the business and monitor where they are in the hiring process. Additionally; management does not have the capability to search those applicants and match them to positions that need to be filled. Another factor limiting...

The executive leadership team of GenRays is pretty confident that a similar deployment of a comparable system in Human Resources will not only return similar financial savings but will radically improve efficiency and productivity in the company’s currently manual processes within Human Resources. Presently, from an operational aspect, all processes are very manual intensive with almost no centralization. Every satellite office of the organization has their own dedicated Human Resources team which caters to the general administrative and HR related needs of the employees in that respective office. With the deployment of the HRIS solution, GenRays would be moving forward in leaps and bounds towards a centralized and consolidated employee database which would be the core of simplified operations with Human resources such as performance...

This initial planning will help to develop the Project Charter and set the stage for all the work that need to be performed. GenRays has subject matter experts on staff whose input it vital to produce an HRIS that meets the particular needs of the GenRays staff. We need to make sure that all of the work required to produce a HRIS product for GenRays is done. We also want to ensure extraneous work is avoided to keep GenRays costs low. We will use the interviews here to determine how the project’s scope will be defined, validated, and controlled. GenRays had reached the ROI point very early with the last on the project and defining scope well here will allow for a similar success. Decomposition of the work that needs to be done is a tool that will help aid in identifying the exact work that needs to be done and help to create the WBS. To further, ensure that the project runs smoothly and stays on track. We will use tools to track and manage the project’s completion. We can use the process of Decomposition that we have used to break down the projects’ scope...

...GenRays Matrix Template Project Management Knowledge Areas Recommended Tool(s) Justification for Tool Project Integration Management • Expert Judgement • Project Management Information System • Change Control Meetings Expert judgement is the primary tool used to bring the project together. From development of the project charter and development plan, to execution, monitoring and changing, and close of the project, expert skills and experience is used to manage and carry out the tasks to project completion. The project manager must use their expert judgement, with inputs from stakeholder interviews and the project management office to manage the project successfully. A project management information system is a tool used to organize inputs and outputs from all project management processes. Consolidation of these inputs and outputs in a centralized information system enables multiple resources the access to the information as it’s needed. GenRays recently completed a project where project updates were readily available online and was seen as an item that worked well on the Lessons Learned report. Change control meetings are tools used to formally perform integrated change control. A change control board is needed to assess and determined if change requests are necessary to keep the project flowing from one task to another, reducing unexpected change related stumbling blocks. Since there are competing priorities among...

...Introduction: Read the attached “GenRays Case Study” before completing this task. Scenario: GenRays recently implemented a new centralized system for finance, purchasing, logistics, and accounting. This system has provided cost savings and other benefits to the company. Management expects that similar business benefits would be possible with a new centralized Human Resources Information System (HRIS), which would include payroll functions. Currently a rather primitive payroll system is used, and small teams have been deployed to work in each company location to support local payroll and human resources functions. The proposed HRIS would replace this primitive one. GenRays management has asked you to act as the project manager and lead a project team to put together a plan for the HRIS project that will allow senior executives to determine whether they should proceed with the implementation of a new centralized HRIS. If the plan is approved, the executive sponsors indicate that you may begin implementing the approved plan after W2s are issued in the new year, but all system elements must be functional before year-end closing. Task: A. Complete the attached “GenRays Matrix Template” to document the project management tools that would be most useful for the HRIS project. B. Complete the attached “GenRays Project Charter Template” for the HRIS project. C. Complete the attached “GenRays Project Scope Document Template” for the HRIS project. D. Create a WBS...

...been met in a project, in other words, at the closing of a project the Project Manager is responsible for compiling and delivering a Final Project Report, known as a Project Closure Report. A good project closure report will summarize the entire project from the beginning project plan and scope information to the lessons learned from the project. It should also include other information such as the changes to the project scope if there were any, the final project budget reconciliation, and “a recap of the performance metrics taken during the project; the budget and schedule reconciliations will provide the final project metrics”, (Mastering-project-management.com, 2009). The information for the report can be written in document format or compiled in a presentation using some type of software such as Microsoft PowerPoint. It is a good idea to have the written document even if the Project Sponsor has requested a presentation. The Project Closure Report should be submitted or presented to the Project Sponsor for final approval. Another document that would be useful when closing a project would be a Project Closing Review with fewer details of items such as budget information, used to inform the other key stakeholders of the project results and closing. The review should also provide management and the project team with insights gained as a result of the project. It could go so far as to recognize the performance of the project team and\or individuals who produced exceptional...

...GenScoop Volume 5, issue 4 An internal newsletter for GenRays employees CEO Rays A message from the GenRays CEO Our new financial system has been a huge success! Due to the time savings in the automatic calculations, I expect to see a full six months more savings than originally anticipated. This extra savings will fuel additional growth and expansion to the company, as we are able to fund more research and projects to improve our workplace. Financial Sunshine How has GenRays been doing financially? As you can see from the chart below, our total sales have been climbing. We passed $6M in sales in the final quarter of last year—up from just over $4M in sales the prior year. 8 One new project that you will read about in this newsletter is the possible implementation of a new HRIS system with payroll functions. We are hoping that the HRIS side of this new system will impact your work life at GenRays very positively, allowing you to create a career track for yourself that aligns with your own goals. It will allow for more transparency in hiring, as all employees will be able to see and apply for open positions as they wish. It will also allow management to ensure that applicants for new jobs are well-qualified. The payroll side will ensure that your paychecks and expense reports are processed more or less automatically, which will make it faster and easier for you to be reimbursed or to make changes to your auto-pay options. We have hired a new project manager to lead up this...
