  • IBM Teams with Lawson for HR Management

    February 10, 2009 Alex Woodie

    IBM and Lawson Software extended their partnership last week with the introduction of a new batch of software and services targeting the human resources departments of small and mid size companies (SMBs).

    As part of the deal, IBM will market and sell components of Lawson’s Strategic Human Capital Management suite along with consulting from IBM Global Services. The software will target several HR processes, including payroll, benefits, recruiting, talent management, employee self-service, and succession planning, and it can be deployed in-house or hosted remotely.

    The Strategic Human Capital Management is a relatively new offering from Lawson, and comprises the third major product suite from the company (the others being the S3 and M3 ERP product lines). Lawson borrowed some HR components from its S3 line in forming the SHCM suite, and built or acquired the talent and workforce management components. The company started selling access to the suite two years ago as part of its IBM partnership.

    IBM has plenty of expertise building human resources capabilities for some of the world’s largest organizations, and now it’s trying to apply that know-how to the mid market, which it defines as organizations with fewer than 1,000 employees. The new software and services offerings is dubbed Mid-Market Workforce Effectiveness.

    Tim Ringo, IBM’s global vice president of human capital management, says: “The combination of Lawson’s core technology and IBM’s mid-market service delivery model will allow our clients to deliver HR services to their employees much more effectively and efficiently than ever before.”

    Get More Out of Your IBM i

    With soaring costs, operational data is more critical than ever. IBM shops need faster, easier ways to distribute IBM applications-based data to users more efficiently, no matter where they are.

    The Problem:

    For Users, IBM Data Can Be Difficult to Get To

    IBM Applications generate reports as spooled files, originally designed to be printed. Often those reports are packed together with so much data it makes them difficult to read. Add to that hardcopy is a pain to distribute. User-friendly formats like Excel and PDF are better, offering sorting, searching, and easy portability but getting IBM reports into these formats can be tricky without the right tools.

    The Solution:

    IBM i Reports can easily be converted to easy to read and share formats like Excel and PDF and Delivered by Email

    Converting IBM i, iSeries, and AS400 reports into Excel and PDF is now a lot easier with SpoolFlex software by DRV Tech.  If you or your users are still doing this manually, think how much time is wasted dragging and reformatting to make a report readable. How much time would be saved if they were automatically formatted correctly and delivered to one or multiple recipients.

    SpoolFlex converts spooled files to Excel and PDF, automatically emailing them, and saving copies to network shared folders. SpoolFlex converts complex reports to Excel, removing unwanted headers, splitting large reports out for individual recipients, and delivering to users whether they are at the office or working from home.

    Watch our 2-minute video and see DRV’s powerful SpoolFlex software can solve your file conversion challenges.
