How Automated HR Solutions Can Gear Up PSUs For Industry 4.0

As the chorus for digital transformation gets louder, the Indian public sector undertakings (PSUs) are speeding up the adoption of emerging technologies to perform in the Industry 4.0 ambience. The publicly held enterprises realize that a digital-ready culture isn't possible without energizing their pool of human resources (HR). To offer an immersive experience to their skilled workforce, the PSUs need to overhaul their existing Human Resource Management Information System (HRMIS). However, onboarding a half-baked digital HRMIS has limited pay-offs. Their best bet is on a system built on an open-source platform that seamlessly combines all HR components and can be integrated with legacy processes. Public enterprises have tried many solutions marketed as Commercial off-the-Shelf (COTS) software products. But the best fitment to their requirement is a solution with customized features like service book inclusion, LTC management complying with government rules, management of property returns and electronic file management.

Need For Seamless HRMIS In PSUs

Like their private-sector counterparts, the PSUs also face the challenge of acquiring talent, retaining human resources, and managing diversity at the workplace. Manual operating systems make HR management tedious and time-devouring, leading to problems in personnel management. As a result of relying on legacy IT systems, there are attendant concerns such as steep costs and cyber security risks. What's more, data as an under-utilized asset is not leveraged for data analytics and insights.

The Promise Of An Integrated HR Management Platform

In times of advancing technology and economic uncertainty, public sector agencies can build organizational agility by opting for an interoperable and configurable HRMIS. A seamless HRMIS promises to quicken the process of digital transformation. HRMIS solutions have evolved to be in sync with emerging technologies. The new age HRMIS solutions have gone beyond accounting integration to help organizations extract more insights from data. And are enabling data monetization- generating measurable economic benefits from available data sources.
