Build your HR technology around the problem you need to solve

An HRIS can provide a central hub for employee records, payroll information, absence management and workforce administration.

However, organisations looking to strengthen performance reviews, increase manager engagement, align objectives and improve talent planning may need more specialised functionality.

That does not mean replacing your HRIS.

Talos Perform works alongside existing HR systems, helping organisations add dedicated performance management while keeping their core employee data connected.

Is your technology solving the right problem?

This practical guide will help you:

• Understand what an HRIS does best
• Explore where dedicated performance management adds value
• Decide whether an HRIS, a performance platform or a combination of both is right for you
• Identify whether you are trying to solve an administration problem or a performance problem
• Explore how connected systems can reduce duplicated work
• Improve manager and employee engagement with performance processes
• Understand how Talos Perform connects with existing HR and productivity tools

The guide also explores what to consider if you do not have an HRIS yet, helping you question whether investing in one first is necessarily the best route for the problem you face.

What problem are you trying to solve?

An HRIS may be the right first investment if you need to improve:

• Employee record management
• Payroll administration
• Holiday and absence management
• Workforce reporting
• Core HR administration
• Regulatory compliance

Dedicated performance management may deliver value faster if you need to improve:

• Performance review participation
• Manager confidence and accountability
• Objective alignment
• Employee development and engagement
• Onboarding and probation processes
• Talent retention
• Succession planning
• Visibility of future leaders

The key is not to begin with a product category. Begin with the outcome your organisation needs.

Keep your HRIS. Enhance your performance management.

Choosing dedicated performance management software does not mean changing everything else.

Talos Perform is designed to work alongside your existing HR technology ecosystem, keeping employee information synchronised while providing dedicated tools for performance, development and talent management.

The guide covers how Talos Perform can complement your HRIS to help you:

• Improve manager adoption
• Increase participation in reviews and check-ins
• Connect onboarding, probation and performance

• Generate richer people insights
• Create a better experience for managers and employees

Talos Perform also connects with productivity tools including Microsoft Teams, Microsoft Outlook and Slack, helping performance management become part of everyday working practices.

Build a more connected performance culture

“There is no doubt that employees are much more engaged with their reviews now than they were before. Teams across the business are working more collaboratively and have a much deeper understanding of how their department contributes to the overall goals of the organisation.”

Neil Wainwright-Farrar, Head of Learning & Development, Clarity Travel
