Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

Introduction
• A company’s employees are its most important
resources
• The Human Resources Department is responsible for:
• Attracting
• Hiring
• Rewarding
• Terminating
employees
• The importance of HR processes to all functional areas
has led to the use of the term Human Capital
Management (HCM) to describe them
4. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 4
HR Department Responsibilities

organization (expansion, retirements and so on) so that
competent employees are available to support business
processes
6. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 6
Problems with Fitter Snacker’s HR Processes
• Paper job vacancy form allows for inconsistent job
details and descriptions:
• Qualifications incomplete
• Requires skills not spelled
• Paper form can be lost, delaying hiring process
• Functional department left shorthanded
• Good candidates lost due to drawn-out hiring process
• Keeping track of resumes submitted from different
sources is problematic
• Being able to retrieve resumes on file that fit a job
description is difficult, time-consuming and fraught
with error
7. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 7
Problems with Fitter Snacker’s HR Processes
• Interviewing Process Problems:
• Without group appointment software, HR has difficulty
scheduling interviews when all interested parties are
available
• Similarly, collecting feedback on the job candidates is
difficult
• Managing travel arrangements and reimbursing
candidates for travel expenses is also a problem
• Delays may result in losing a top candidate
• Gathering new employee information and enrolling
employee in correct benefits plan is difficult
• May take months to get employees proper
compensation and benefits
8. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 8
HR Duties after Hiring
• Performance Evaluations
• Important to maintain sufficient documentation on
underperforming employees in case termination is
warranted
• Without proper documentation, lawsuits may follow
• Difficulties in managing performance evaluation data
makes it difficult to identify employee problems and
take corrective action (counseling, transfer) before
problem leads to termination
• Maintaining proper control of sensitive data is also
difficult with a paper system
9. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 9
HR Duties after Hiring
• Employee satisfaction is strongly related to job turnover
• Well compensated employees with satisfying jobs are
less likely to leave the company
• Human Resources can help maintain a satisfying
work environment through:
• Training programs through supervisors and
managers
• Conducting employee satisfactions surveys
• Conducting employee exit surveys
• Human resources should ensure compensation levels
are competitive and applied fairly to all employees
10. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 10
Another Look—Boeing Discrimination
• In 1996, the Labor Department’s Office of Federal
Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) ran a routine
investigation of Boeing’s Philadelphia plant
• Because Boeing works on government contracts, the
Federal Government has the right to audit Boeing’s
compliance with anti-discrimination laws
• By comparing median pay of male and female
employees and their median job experience, the
OFCCP found a “prima facie” (at first view) case of
discrimination
11. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 11
Another Look—Boeing Discrimination
• Boeing conducted its own internal analysis, Diversity
Salary Analysis project, which concluded “gender
differences in starting salaries generally continue and
often increase as a result of salary planning
decisions”
• The DSA project showed a gap of $3,741.04 for
entry level managers
• Boeing attempted to keep the DSA project study
confidential, but was ordered by Judge George Pinkie
to release it
• On May 17, 2004, Boeing settled a class-action
lawsuit for $72.5 million
12. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 12
Another Look—Major League Baseball
• The Society for American Baseball Research uses a
statistical technique called sabremetrics to analyze
player performance in a number of situations, e.g.:
• Probability of getting a hit with players on base and
type of hit likely
• Boston Red Sox are using the measures to analyze its
roster and determine the type of player it should recruit
• Department store chain Target is using this analytical
approach to screen job applicants
• Dow Chemical used data on its PeopleSoft ERP system
to find that its most successful MBA candidates came
from Michigan State, Brigham Young and Purdue, not
Ivy League schools
13. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 13
Human Resources with ERP
• Managing a company’s human capital is information
intensive
• Electronic storage of data greatly simplifies the
retrieval of important data
• The SAP R/3 HR module provides tools to:
• Manage an organization’s structure, job roles and
responsibilities, and definitions
• Personal employee information
• Time management
• Payroll
• Travel management
• Employee training
14. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 14
Organizational Management
• Most companies have an organizational chart or plan to
help define an individuals responsibilities in the
organization
• With ERP, the organizational chart provides a structure
to support additional tasks
• SAP R/3 provides an Organizational and Staffing Plan
tool to define a company’s management structure and
define positions within the organizational structure
• The plan can also define the individuals that hold
each position
15. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 15

16. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 16
Task, Job, Position and Person
• SAP distinguishes between Task, Job, Position, and
Person
• An employee is a Person who performs Tasks
• Tasks can be assigned to:
• Jobs, which are generic descriptions of an
employee’s work responsibilities
• Positions, which are the specific organizational
assignments a person holds
• If Tasks, Jobs and Positions are well-defined and
current, then recruiting is simplified and compensation
levels can be set more consistently and fairly

Manager’s Desktop
• The SAP HR Module provides the Manager’s Desktop, a
tool that provides access to all Human Resource data
and transactions in one location
• Human Resource data is very sensitive, so controlling
access is critical
• With an integrated information system, controlling
access is simplified as a range of authorization tools are
available
• See User Authorizations in Chapter 5, pp. 128-129

24. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 24
Another Look—FXIS
• Fuji Xerox Information Systems (FXIS) wanted to be able
to close its books two days after the end of the month
• To do this, FXIS chose to implement SAP R/3
• FXIS chose to implement the SD, MM, FI, CO, PS
and HR modules
• Integration of HR data was emphasized
• To meet the two-day closing, FXIS needed expense
information from its sales force, plus time charge data
from software developers and system administrators
• FXIS developed its Web-based DI system to collect
this data
• DI was so successful, FXIS formed an ERP solution
business
25. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 25
Advanced SAP R/3 HR Features
• Training and Development
• The Personnel Development component of the SAP
R/3 Human Resources module supports planning and
implementation of employee development and
training activities
• Employee development is driven by Requirements
and Qualifications
• Requirements: Skills or abilities associated with a
position
• Qualifications: Skills or abilities associated with a
specific employee
• Two perspectives on the same concept
26. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 26
Advanced SAP R/3 HR Features
• Training and Development
• An employee’s qualifications can be compared to the
requirements of a position to which the employee aspires
• The comparison identifies gaps and allows a manager
to plan development and training efforts to close the
gap
• The comparison can serve as a basis for employee
evaluation, and can motivate the employee by providing
a goal and a means to achieve it
• Succession Planning
• Companies should have plans for replacing key employees
when they leave the company
• Small companies can lose business if customers are
unclear about succession plans for key people
27. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 27
Another Look—Management Succession at
Quest Diagnostics
• Succession Planning allowed McDonalds to announce
Charles H. Bell as new CEO hours after CEO James
Cantalupo died of a heart attack
• Unfortunately, McDonalds had to announce Jim
Skinner as CEO in November of the same year when
Charles Bell was diagnosed with terminal cancer
• Quest Diagnostics CEO Kenneth W. Freeman began
planning for his successor nearly 5 years before he
planned to step down
• Freeman identified Surya Mohapatra as his top
candidate after screening 200 Quest executives
28. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 28
Another Look—Management Succession at
Quest Diagnostics
• Mohapatra had extensive technical skills as a scientist,
but needed to develop his abilities in other areas:
• Public speaking: Freeman had Mohapatra make
unscripted presentations to employees, shareholders
and industry analysts
• Decision making: Freeman spent 5 years engaging
Mohapatra in lengthy telephone conversations
discussing his management style
• Board of Directors Relations: Freeman changed the
seating chart for board meetings so that Mohapatra
had more “face time” with each director
29. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 29
New HR Features in SAP R/3
• Mobile Time Management: Allows employees who
spend significant time “on the road” to use cellular
phones and other mobile devices to record work times,
time charges, absences, and leave requests
• Management of Family and Medical Leave: The SAP
R/3 HR system can now determine employee eligibility
for FMLA leave and track usage
• Domestic Partner Handling: Companies that provide for
domestic (unmarried) partners can now manage benefits
for domestic partners and their children more easily
• Administrative and Long-Term Incentives: Sarbanes-
Oxley requires companies to account for expected costs
for long-term incentives like stock options
30. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 30
New HR Features in SAP R/3
• Personnel Cost Planning: Scenarios can be developed
for major organizational changes like expansions,
acquisitions and downsizing to determine the cost
impacts
• Management and Payroll for Global Employees:
Managing global employees involves complicated issues
including relocation, visas, work permits, housing, taxes,
and bonus pay
• Management by Objectives: MBO, outlined by Peter
Drucker in 1954, encourages managers to focus on
results, not activities, and negotiate a “contract of goals”
• SAP R/3 now provides a comprehensive set of tools
to support MBO
31. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 31
Another Look—HR at the USPS
• The United States Postal Service (USPS) signed a deal
with SAP in August 2004 to provide HR software to
replace its current systems written in the 1980’s
• The USPS employs roughly 70,000 employees, about
one-third of the civilian government workforce
• SAP was chosen as it has experience providing HR
systems to about 50 other postal systems worldwide
• Postal Service Managers expect the SAP software to
help them better control costs and manage employees
• Managers expect to be able to view information
company-wide and allocate resources as needed
32. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 32
Summary
• Employees are among a company’s most important
assets. Without qualified and motivated employees, a
company cannot succeed
• The Human Resources Department has the primary
responsibility of ensuring that the company can find,
evaluate, hire, develop, evaluate, and compensate the
right employees to achieve the company’s goals. HR is
also responsible for employee training and
development, succession planning, and termination
33. Concepts in Enterprise Resource Planning, Second Edition 33
Summary
• Managing, sharing, controlling, and evaluating the data
required to manage a company’s human capital is
simplified with an integrated information system
• Effective Human Resource processes require a system
that controls the flow of timely and accurate information
within and among departments
