Example: If existing SunPac LEAs move to K12 Enterprise for HR functions, ...this changes.... 14 st 21 Century HR System Goals ✤ Eliminate “re-keying” between HR and finance departments ✤ Provide employee self service portal greatly reducing central office forms processing requirements ✤ Single authoritative source of employee data ✤ ✤ Eliminate any discrepancy between payroll data and HR data ✤ Better auditing, better management with dashboards, timely data Integrate Budgeting, Salary Audit and State-mandated reports: ✤ Reduce burden on LEA staff for State-wide requirements 15 New Architecture Budgeting NCSchoolJobs.com Positions and Employee Records Applicant Tracking Accounting Package Salary Audit Data Integration Service Reporting System Licensure Professional Development & CEUs Teacher Evaluation How To Gradually Reduce Dependence on HRMS • Identify components that can easily be replaced with commercial software packages and guide LEAs to them • Identify underused components in HRMS and stop new development first, then eventually end support • Specify and document HRMS features and develop a benchmark to which vendors can develop commercial software • Reduce HRMS fees; allow funds to be applied to commercial software • Allow market forces to develop solutions that integrate with • • • other industry standard solutions (e.g. IronData, TNL, Integration Services & Reporting) HRMS Steering Committee becomes the much broader "Business Systems Advisory Committee" DPI is out of the software development business and in the benchmarking/leadership business DPI negotiates statewide for optimum prices Time Line ✤ Maintain old HRMS functionality on AS/400 platform: couple years ✤ Develop Specification for 3rd Party Core HR Functionality: 2013 ✤ Move to 3rd Party Applicant Tracking Systems: 2013 ✤ Reduce LEA’s HRMS fees: 2014 ✤ Move to 3rd Party CEU Tracking Systems: early 2014 ✤ Provide integration, reporting, benchmarking & leadership: ongoing 18 Backup Cloud Information 19 What is the AS/400 (iSeries) Cloud? One large system replaces dozens & dozens of smaller systems. This little box can hold eight 3.6GHz CPUs, 512GB RAM, 7TB Disk in just 1.6 cubic feet. Economies of scale. Reduction in support and cost of basic system needs. Better security & backup. Staff focuses on strategic goals, not system operations. If all LEAs moved to SAS cloud, Statewide savings is between $1,000,000 and $2,000,000 per year.
