2. Complete the following table to document major tasks the HRS must do. Page 2 of 5 3 Top managers at We Build Stuff (WBS) are in need of three new information systems: 4 - Financial Information System (FIS) - Human Resources System (HRS) - Production \& Order Processing System (POPS) 7 These systems are all integrated in some way. However, the focus of this assignment is on developing the 8 requirements for the HRS to meet the HR department goals. 9 The Human Resource department is headed by Seth Barnhart. Seth sees the new HR system encompassing three 10 broad areas: hiring new employees, scheduling and tracking training courses for employees, and scheduling of 11 employee work schedules. 12 Hiring New Employees 13 Seth has no automated information system to assist him in hiring new employees. When the company was 14 small, this was not a problem. But given the meteoric increase in customers and orders, the company needs 15 several new employees. Currently, applicants can only complete applications by paper. This has limited the 16 number of potential employees since so many people find jobs online. Seth would like an online presence so 17 that potential employees can complete applications online. 18 Seth would also like an overhaul of the current processes in hiring a new employee. Because of the current, 19 Inefficient manual system, applications have been lost and it takes too long to hire employees. Hiring managers 20 provide Seth with information on new positions available and he must write up a description of the job and the 21 characteristics needed in the new hire. 22 Gumently Seth and the hirinemanawer seekina a nawemnlowee reviewanolications tonether to comnarethe 20 provide Seth with information on new positions available and he must write up a description of the job and the 21 characteristics needed in the new hire. 22 Currently, Seth and the hiring manager seeking a new employee, review applications together to compare the 23 qualifications of the available pool of applicants with the characteristics of an open job. This initial screening is 24 very time consuming since so many people are applying for positions; many applicants don't have the minimum 25 qualifications necessary. Given the skills needed to create the products that WBS sells, each job could have 26 numerous minimum qualifications and/or special certifications that are required for employment. A new HRS 27 should be able to automate some of these processes so that applicants without the needed characteristics are 28 removed before Seth and the hiring manager review applications. 29 WBS has a part-time clerk go through applications that have been rejected and are more than a year old to 30 purge them. However, since the clerk is part-time, mistakes are often made. Sometimes applications of good 31 candidates are erroneously purged. Other times, the clerk just doesn't do the job. Seth believes this is another 32. piece of the hiring process that can be automated. 33 Finally, any new employee paperwork should be available to the applicant who is ultimately hired. When hired, 34 new employees complete multiple documents with information to be stored. Employees complete insurance, 35 health and benefit paperwork which should all be kept on file and this data is used when calculating payroll. 36 WBS seems to be drowning in paperwork, and they may have to rent another facility just to keep all the 37 paperwork stored. This is not only expensive, but it is time-consuming every time they need to go there to find 38 the paperwork if it is required for some reason. Seth would like all of this paperwork digitized and new 39 employees should be able to access the paperwork online. 40 Scheduling and Tracking of Employee Training 41 Besides the usual new-employee hire paperwork, new employees also go through a series of intensive training 42 sessions to acquaint them with the products made and the processes used to make them. Seth would like the 43 new HRS to track when training sessions are scheduled, track employees signing up for the classes, and record 44 completion of the classes. 45+ To be continued... ****
