The Business Information Cycle (cont)

Previous Slide Next Slide

By further expanding the Business Information Cycle, it can be seen that Policy and Practice dictate how HR and Payroll Systems need to be configured to support said Policy.  Systems are the mechanism to support Policy, not define Policy.  Included in HR Systems are E-Recruitment, Learning and Development, OSH, etc.

Also included in this model is the Data Warehouse.  This is generally because, whilst HR and Payroll systems create a considerable amount of valuable information, there is every chance it is not in a format that is useable by Management in the decision making process.  Also, the HR Systems may in fact be a collection of different solutions with their own independent data sources.  By mining this information and rationalising it into a single repository (the Warehouse), more focused and relevant reporting can be delivered.
