...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...

...Task 1 – Part A GenRays Matrix Template Project Management Knowledge Areas Recommended Tool(s) Project Charter, Facilitation Technique Project Integration Management Interviews, Product Analysis Project Scope Management Justification for Tool The project charter will be used for this knowledge management area because it defines the HRIS projects purpose, objectives, requirements, risks, and budget, which is important for this top-down, overall view of the project. The Facilitation Technique will also be used because it not only facilitates the development of the project charter, but will help the project team members accomplish their tasks through brainstorming, problem solving, meeting management, and conflict resolution. Interviews with GenRays senior leaders, department heads, and staff will be used for this knowledge management area to determine what the most beneficial aspects of an HRIS system are to the company. The results of the interviews will be used to help identify and define the features and functions of the project’s deliverables. Product Analysis will also be used to help determine which vendor’s pre-packaged HRIS system best meets the company’s needs, by analyzing the HRIS requirements, the product breakdown, the systems required, and the value of the product, and comparing to the offerings and information provided by the potential vendors that have already been identified. Decomposition, Expert Judgment, Gantt Chart Decomposition will be used for Project...

...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...

...HRIS Implementation Implications GenRay 10/01/2014 The steps designated in the Work Breakdown structure were given in five different steps. First, assessing the hardware needs of the new HRIS software. Second, obtaining the required hardware and installing the new software onto it. Third, moving all employee data and records from the old HR databases to the new, more robust HRIS system. Fourth and fifth are very similar, training for both Managers and employees in the two new systems of records, HRIS and payroll. When assessing the hardware needs of the new HRIS software Kendall had to pay close attention to the required specifications. This may have taken additional research beyond learning the specs and delving deeper into equipment that may be unfamiliar. Conversely, the possibility exists that GenRay already possessed the correct hardware but the terminology of the HRIS specification guide was unclear or different and thus create confusion. However, all these obstacles would be Kendalls to overcome and gain a sufficient understand so he could use his knowledge for the next phase of the project. With a firm knowledge of the hardware specifications of the new HRIS system, Kendalls next task was to provide an assessment report to Drew. The assessment would include a detailed list of the hardware which needed to be acquired to meet the requirements of the HRIS system. This would take into account the existing IT infrastructure and the new hardware items would be used...

...Identifying Good or Bad Statements Anit Maharjan HUMN210-H5WW Meghan Roehll Franklin University 4th April, 2013 a. Nobody in the world today is really good. Yes, I have heard of good people, but not really good people. - Good statement. b. The world is not flat. Well, if you look at a map it is: - in what point of view - bad statement. c. I will need an extended period of laborious cogitation to assimilate the missive. This doesn't make any sense - bad statement. d. The number 2 is odd. Are we talking about an even number? I believe your confusion comes from the fact that 2 is a prime number, but it is still even. It is the only even number that is prime – false statement. e. If you believe in evolution, then your ancestors were filthy apes. There are two kinds of people in the world: - one is god prayer and the next is science believer. If you support the statement from the point of scientific theory of evolution by Darwin, then yes our ancestors are filthy apes, whereas if you think form the side of god’s prayer then the statement is false – good statement. f. Some swans are black. In this statement, I am not sure that some swans are black or not, all swans could be black or white – good statement. g. If you are a human, then you are a person. If you are an individual, then you are alive. Human is a person and of course the person becomes an individual and every individual breaths...

...Choices and Consequences The Number 1 choice is Jerry, the father, offers the best utilitarianism of hope and use of his life to help his children and family and the best longevity of life given he has essentially been healthy except for the damage done to his heart from the Steroids some 20 to 30 years earlier. His wife and children play no part in the decision in him getting the heart. It all has to do with his health, and ability to live a life after he receives it. And also some other facts which should be considered like life expectancy, importance, age etc. when deciding on whom to donate the heart to. He’s cause for damage to the heart was the steroids, of which he was unaware of the consequences of taking the steroids at the time he took so there wasn’t any sort of health irresponsibility known otherwise. His chances to live 10-15 more years are very high so it’s one point investing in him. He has a family to take care of, wife and the 3 kids who he has to support till they are on their feet and so forth. He also has been a good supporting father as he’s already being supporting their dreams career wise and the future. So my first choice with all confidence would be Jerry. The number 2 choice is Ozzie because as LONG as he does not get back on his old ways HE does hold out some hope on society as a whole as long he does NOT revert back and does good in society by helping out and he no longer does any drugs - he really can have a useful and a prosperous and productive...
