Abstract:
IT has emerged as a new competitive dynamic. IT helps any business function to
earn leverage. IT supported processes will be benefited by reduced cost, reduced
cycle time and improving output quality. However, HR sector has dramatically failed
to obtain the best benefit of IT, in todays’ context. Major allegation is that HR has
only used IT to “Automate” HR processes and to “informate” up to a certain level.
Yet there are higher levels of benefits that HR can obtain from IT. Literature suggests
that there are higher levels such as “Transformate” and “Endowmate” as well.
Author of this article explores the nature of intercept of HR and Technology (ICT),
and stresses the requirement of new space for HR Sector, that will provide solutions
in “HR Technology” domain.
