Premise
Managing human resources, procurement, and day-to-day operations for a large government entity requires a tailored approach. Off-the-shelf HRMS solutions often fall short of addressing specific government requirements, leading to inefficiencies and reliance on multiple disconnected platforms. Sharjah Broadcasting Authority (SBA), one of the largest government entities in Sharjah, needed a comprehensive and unified solution for its 1,500 employees.
Challenge
SBA faced several critical challenges:
- Existing HRMS solutions were rigid and could not accommodate SBA’s unique workflows.
- Multiple departments relied on different platforms, causing inefficiencies in HR, procurement, and IT support.
- Employees needed a system that provided relevant content dynamically without overwhelming them with unnecessary information.
- Compliance with government regulations, security policies, and integration with existing enterprise tools like SAP and Microsoft Active Directory was essential.
- Managing inventory, vendor relations, and financial processes required seamless integration within the HRMS.
Solution
We designed and developed a fully customized, scalable HRMS that not only met SBA’s requirements but also provided extensibility for future growth. Unlike traditional HRMS solutions, our system was built from the ground up with modularity and scalability in mind, making it suitable for both government and private sector organizations.
