HRIS Software Choice
in a municipal organization

An HRIS roadmap is a strategic document that outlines the evolution of a company's Human Resources Information System (HRIS) over a period of 3 to 5 years. It aligns the needs of the HR function with the company's overall objectives, technological capabilities, and budget constraints.

Part 1: Municipal Sector HRIS Roadmap

The establishment of a Municipal Sector HRIS Roadmap forms the basis of the HR technological transformation (HR foundation, Payroll, Time, Social Benefits, Onboarding, Talents, Analytics).

The approach involves analyzing current systems, assessing future needs, and defining a clear 3- to 5-year roadmap. This strategic plan incorporates the specific realities of the sector: IT resource unavailability, budgetary constraints, and executive committee approval delays.

The business case produced is structured to meet the presentation requirements for decision-making bodies.

Part 2: Public tender for an HRIS solution

The public tendering process for a municipal HRIS is a demanding one. The risks are numerous: non-compliant bidders, delays, or even cancellation.

The complexity of aligning needs with market supply and the length of the tendering processes are obstacles that our team has learned to anticipate and manage.

NexaRH assists organizations in drafting tender documents and evaluating submissions, ensuring regulatory compliance at every stage.
