Marc, a manager at Great Machines, calls his HR business partner Ben to check if hiring for a new project would be within budget. Ben tells Marc about the company's new HR system. Marc doubts the system could provide transparency. At the airport, Marc checks the mobile app and is surprised to see an accurate view of his budget and hiring capacity. He quickly raises a new requisition. Ben then informs Marc that the requisition could have been raised directly from his phone. Marc is impressed with the increased transparency and efficiency provided by Ramco's new HCM application.

2. Hey Ben, need you to get this hire
requisition. thru’. Can you
consult your ‘secret system’ and
let me know how quick this can
go thru’?
Marc heads the Emerging Line
group at Great Machines Inc.
His team consists of highly
qualified techno-functional
product managers.
He’s looking to staff his new
project and calls up Ben, his
HR Business Partner.

3. But Marc, why call me up? Why
don’t you check for yourself? You
know ours is a very open
organization. No secrets here!
Ben finds Marc’s question
amusing.
w w w .ramco.com | 3

4. Despite the amusement, Ben understood what
Marc said . There’s a reason why Marc called it
the HR’s secret system.
Because budget numbers were supposedly
known only to the HR team. And the line
managers thought the HR wielded undue
powers over hiring, because the numbers were
known only to them.
But in truth, there was no system at all: it was
all spreadsheets.

5. No one had a real-time tab on those numbers. HR
used to take days to tally exits and new hires
against defined budgets.
So whenever a manger asked for hiring, it always
used to take a long time just to know if the hiring
was within budget.
So a common practice was to mark any hire
requisition as ‘exceptional approval’ to get away
with the question of budgets.
And then there were meetings to understand why
there were so many exceptions. Both the HR and
line managers hated the whole process.

6. Over the last 2 yeas, Great Machines has been
growing at YOY rate of 34%. And the company
has been in a hiring spree. Manual tallying just
didn’t work.
That’s when the organization decided to invest in a
reliable HR system.
The new HR system was in use for the past 4
months. But Ben had found some great results
already.
Ben knew that Marc will also find the new
recruiting system effective.

7. Oh yeah, the new HR system.
You did tell me about it! Let
me see what I find in there at
the airport.
At first, Marc thought Ben was kidding.
But then, he realized - Ben was talking
of the new HR system.
It was said that the new HR system
would bring in more transparency to all
HR processes.
But he doubted that.

8. Marc remembered that the
application worked in
mobile devices. He decides
to give it a ‘try’ as he waited
for his flight.

9. Marc is surprised that the first
thing that he found on the
screen is the last thing that he
hoped to find: The budget
availability.

10. The application showed him
an accurate snapshot of his
budget.
Marc is also able to see the
flux in his team and the
budget gap.

11. Given such clear
information, Marc just took a
couple of minutes to raise the
new hire requisition.
When he called Ben to thank
him, Ben had another surprise:
Marc could have raised the
requisition from his phone!
Marc no longer doubts Ben!
