rview

Now that you have assessed the business, identified some of the  inefficient HR-related processes plaguing Larson Property Management  Company, and pinpointed a few possible solutions, it is time to choose  an HRIS application that will best suit the business. In this  assignment, you will provide a blueprint for the new system and select a  vendor that provides the type of HRIS you believe is most efficient and  effective.

To prepare for this assignment, review the Larson Property  Management Company case scenario on pages 114–115 of the textbook, and  then research logical process modeling with data flow diagrams and HRIS  vendors that may suit the needs of Larson Property Management.

Instructions

Logical Process Modeling with Data Flow Diagrams and Physical Design Choice

1. Based on your research of logical process modeling with data  flow diagrams, explain the key business activities and processes in the  HR system and how the data will flow. Next, determine the physical  design and explain your reasoning for the design. Defend your decisions  with theory and findings from past readings and class activities.

Choose HRIS Vendor

1. Now that you know the type of HRIS you will be implementing,  it is time to choose an HRIS vendor. Compare and contrast three vendors,  including a description of the cost, capabilities, and HR functions  that the HRIS caters to.
