If you feel like human resource management has become more of an exercise in managing resources than humans, you might be right\u2014and you\u2019re certainly not alone. The types of requests you may get within HR can be vast\u2014from recruiting for open positions to onboarding a new employee to working on a change in benefits\u2026the list goes on and on.<\/p>\n

Navigating these processes and changes can be stressful and time-consuming for all involved, so having a way to streamline processes can help minimize the stress for both those making the requests and those managing them. And a great way to streamline this all is through Enterprise Service Management (ESM)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With many businesses and organizations looking to embrace a single-platform approach to service management and delivery \u2013 ESM makes sense. With the right codeless service management tool \u2013 everyone from IT to HR, facilities to marketing<\/a> can set up their own customized portals and workflows with automations to handle requests \u2013 whether that\u2019s for a name change of new hire onboarding in HR or a new work order or maintenance request in facilities for example.<\/p>\n

Here are four areas where ESM can really shine when it comes to HR.<\/p>\n

Service Requests and Workflow<\/h2>\n

With an ESM tool, you can get out of using email for requests and instead use an online portal with dynamic forms to submit requests. Employees can come to your customized, branded portal<\/a> and select a specific service and the platform will automatically route the request in the right direction\u2014things like requests to onboard\/offboard a new employee, to initiate an FMLA request, name changes or even employment verification can be entered and managed through the portal.<\/p>\n

Knowledge Base and Documents<\/h2>\n

HR comes with a slew of forms, documents and procedures all of which must be well documented and stored in a centralized location with varying degrees of access.<\/p>\n

With a knowledge base built into your HR portal, employees can go to one location to download files or access information. In addition, compliance guidelines and other standard information can be shared in a centralized knowledge base with sophisticated search capabilities as well as an iterative feedback loop. And permission settings allow you to control who can see or access sensitive documentation.<\/p>\n

By having all of these forms and documents readily available and searchable, you can cut back on the number of questions your HR department receives around things like, \u201cWhat are the company holidays? Where can I find our benefits? What\u2019s the PTO policy?\u201d and more.<\/p>\n

Compliance<\/h2>\n

When it comes to compliance and reporting, it is critical that employees have the appropriate avenues to submit a case and have it reviewed appropriately. By offering detailed information on the portal and giving employees an access point for reporting, HR can benefit from having a clearly documented process in place.<\/p>\n

Project Management and Supercharged Service Management<\/h2>\n

There\u2019s never an end to the projects that arise in an organization. They arrive in all shapes, sizes and maturity levels. When you use ESM software like TeamDynamix that includes ITSM\/ESM, Project Portfolio Management (PPM) and enterprise integration and automation (iPaaS) on a single platform, your HR project leads can ensure novices aren\u2019t overwhelmed and experts aren\u2019t underwhelmed.<\/p>\n
