Approve the purchase and implementation of the Employee Online product from Sungard Bi-Tech. Attachments 2. Motion to approve acceptance of a Grant Award in the amount of $7,500.00 from the Council of Juvenile Court Judges of Georgia for the Purchase of Services for Juvenile Offenders Program. Attachments Public Safety Committee Meeting 10/13/2008 12:30 PM Employee Online Portal Implementation Department:Information Technology Caption:Approve the purchase and implementation of the Employee Online product from Sungard Bi-Tech. Background:Augusta currently uses software from Sungard Bi-Tech ("Bi-Tech") to manage our Human Resources, Payroll, Procurement, and Financial and Accounting functions. Within our system there is a wealth of information available about each employee, but viewing this information is restricted to certain personnel within the departments mentioned above and is not available to the employees without contacting HR, Payroll, etc. There is currently not a component that allows for any kind of self-service on the part of the employees in regard to changing their address, looking up their personal information, reviewing their benefit choices, etc. This means that these activities can only take place during working hours and will therefore impact productivity in every city department at some point. Analysis:It is proposed to purchase the Employee Online program from Bi-Tech in order to permit self-service on the part of employees in regard to their own personal information. Access would be available via the internet, so functions that have traditionally had to take place during working hours could be done by employees whenever it was convenient for them. In terms of security, access on the part of the employees would require that they create an account on the system and then authenticate using a login and password before access was granted to them. Employee Online would permit the following activities, depending on what the responsibile departments (primarily HR & Finance) would grant employees to do: - View check stubs from past pay periods - View and modify benefits - View position and salary information - View and update address and emergency contact information - Change withholding amounts and view other tax- related information - Update training information Modifications to records are subject to approval by the department that is responsible for maintaining the information before it is committed to the database. Efficiency is gained because the employees themselves are empowered to review and change some data related specifically to their personal information and benefits. Since the source of information is the employee, the chance of error by HR or Finance personnel is reduced, and the activity can take place at any time, day or night, even on weekends and holidays. Financial Impact:The cost of this project is approximately $36,000, including travel and lodging for the Bi-Tech implementers.
