The call to be more efficient intensified after the onset of the great recession. Due to economic uncertainty and increasing competition the drive to streamline labor-intensive processes remains a top priority for many companies worldwide.

One of the key techniques HR uses to become efficient and effectively deliver solid service delivery value is to integrate HR systems into one solution. Let’s face it…integrating HR systems is no less easy then cramming a handful of cooked spaghetti into one narrow container.

If HR Integration is not done right it can lead to complete disaster. If not carefully planned loss of money, time, resources, and functional credibility will certainly result.

So how do you successfully integrate HR systems?

For answers we can take a look at how MasterCard accomplished this daunted task. An interview with MasterCard’s Senior Vice President of GBS HR Systems & Operations, Lois Miller provides some great insights.

My key takeaways of the interview include:

  • Building a persuasive business case for success
  • Don’t underestimate the impact of the change on the end user and invest in change management
  • Specifically what HR processes and programs are enabled through technology, and
  • What HR metrics Mastercard uses to measure success

There are golden nuggets to pull from this interview. If you are facing an HR Integration project in your near future you’ll not want to miss this interview with Lois Miller MasterCard’s SVP GBS HR Systems & Operations.
