PFE: HR Digitalization & Systems Integration

This project focuses on enhancing HR digitalization by integrating existing HR systems and implementing advanced digital HR capabilities. The organization already operates an HR Information System (HRIS), Learning Management System an Applicant Tracking System (ATS) and more; however, these tools currently function in silos. The objective is to design and implement seamless integrations, automate HR workflows, improve data consistency, and introduce new digital HR features such as analytics dashboards, employee self-service enhancements, and process automation across the employee lifecycle.

Problem Statement

Despite the availability of modern HR tools such as HRIS, LMS and ATS platforms, we need to reduce the fragmented HR processes and work more on integrations between systems. This fragmentation leads to duplicated data entry, losing time in using different tools separately, and extra work of centralizing all data in one report.

The challenge is to design an integrated digital HR ecosystem that connects recruitment, onboarding, employee administration, Learning management, compensation and reporting while improving user experience, data quality, and operational efficiency.

Methodology for Solution

The project will follow an analysis, design, and implementation approach. The student will begin by analyzing existing HR processes, system architectures, and data flows between the different available HR tools. Based on this analysis, integration scenarios will be defined using APIs, middleware, or automation tools. The student will then implement selected integrations, automate key HR workflows (such as recruitment-to-onboarding), and develop basic dashboards or reports to enhance HR visibility. Testing, documentation, and user feedback will be incorporated throughout the project lifecycle.

Expected Deliverables

• An integrated HR digital ecosystem with workflows demonstrating automated data exchange.
  
• Documented HR process maps before and after digitalization.
  
• Implemented automation or digital enhancements improving HR efficiency.
  
• A final report describing the architecture, integrations, challenges, and business impact.
