The document discusses conducting a study on how Human Resource Management Systems (HRMS) and Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) are used across different industries. It proposes identifying one company each in industries like banking, consulting, hotels, retail, tourism, FMCG, entertainment and healthcare. For each company, the study would explore their current HRMS with a focus on ATS, covering the challenges faced, reasons for choosing a particular system, and benefits realized. The goal is to understand how HR functions vary across industries and what software is used to address different needs.

THE POWER OF ONE Studying the applications and usage of HRMS
(Human Resources Management Systems) and ATS (Applicant Tracking
System)
The last decade has witnessed an extensive usage of technology as an integrator for achieving business optimization and excellence. From being a mere differentiator, technology stacks integrating various aspects of the business have become hygiene factors, essential towards driving todays fast paced, highly critical and de-centralized business needs. Thus there has been a mushrooming of ERP suites, be it, traditional players such as SAP and ORACLE or the emerging ones such as Microsoft Dynamix, EPICOR, INFOR and Indias own home grown Ramco Systems. Each of these suites cater to a different target audience ranging from small scale enterprises to huge multinational corporations hosted across multiple platforms, be it the traditional on premise ERP that is feature and customization heavy but also requires additional IT and infrastructure capabilities or the lightweight pay as you go Cloud and SaaS (Software as a Service) model. Some of the common HRMS vendors include ORACLE PeopleSoft, SAP HRM, BambooHR, Zenefits, Halogen Employee Performance & Talent Management Software, EPICOR HCM, SAGE HRMS, KRONOS Workforce Ready, Ascentis HR, TimeForce and iCIMS to name a few. Some specific ATS suites are Taleo, ZOHO Recruit, SmartSearch, SuccessFactors, Ceridian, Greenhouse, Gopher, CATS, TribeHR etc. Given the number of software available in the market today, it seems safe to do a scan of companies across various industry sectors to understand how the requirements of the same function vary across industries and what software package is currently being used to address and complement these needs. Thus the project would first involve identifying a single company in sectors such as Banking, Consulting, Hotel, Retail, Tourism, FMCG, Entertainment and Healthcare industry. When this is done, an exploratory study has to be conducted on the companys current HRMS systems with a focus on ATS. The case-let should ideally cover the challenges faced by the company, the reasons why they went for a particular HRMS implementation and the benefits realized. Thus the case-let would revolve around technology aided business transformation from the HRMS perspective. The total length of each case-let would be 1.5 pages and 8 such case-lets together would not exceed more than 12-13 pages.
