Many Small and Medium enterprises (SMEs) in Singapore have been facing labor shortages lately. Furthermore, with the increasing trend of picking the jobs that provide the most benefits, training, and flexibility in pursuing their ideal roles, most SMEs are challenged in attracting, developing, and retaining good talent within the company in the long run. While SME owners and managers understand that the company should provide good training, a conducive working environment, and an equitable reward system, there may not be any formal process of performance management, and if there is, it may be paper-based and cumbersome to carry out.
To show a clear example of the steps needed to implement a cloud performance review system, below is a case study of a client we have worked with previously.
A company providing IT consulting Services with approximately 60 headcounts, decided to implement the performance management process using a cloud-based HR system that consists of an employee performance evaluation system with the objective of improving both the retention and development of the employees.
These were the simple 7 steps taken to implement their performance management:
As this is a cloud employee review system, the upfront hardware and software investment is negligible and the company is only paying for the usage of the system. A cloud appraisal system offers more flexibility in terms of financial outlay.
The benefits of implementing and using a cloud-based HR system are:
One of the biggest benefits of the cloud employee review system is that it can be implemented across the region should there be any employees working in other countries. The management can still get a consolidated view of the company and perform moderation of the results of the appraisal score at the end of the year.
All in all, most SMEs should implement a cloud appraisal management system as the effort and financial outlay are manageable and there are many benefits. It will greatly enhance the business performance and competitiveness. With an integrated HRIS and performance management system, HR and management can efficiently manage and develop talent easily.
