Project management considering the life cycle of HRMS ERP and the impact of it on human resource operation in BRAC International

Abstract

The report represents my internship experience and outcome of three months at BRAC International, where I have been working in the Human Resource unit. This internship proved to be very valuable for the practical aspects of the HR management studies pursued and integrated the knowledge academically acquired with the real world. The survey conducted during this internship focused on various aspects of HRMS ERP implementation and its impact on the organization. Key findings are that generally, there has been a high level of familiarity with IT project management among the respondents; during development, the main challenges involved include time constraints and data migration complexities; whereas for the varied adoption challenges, integration issues and resistance to change have been identified. Training and support materials have been effective, though there is a preference for asynchronous learning formats like video tutorials. Benefits of the HRMS ERP system include increased reporting capabilities, cost savings, and improved employee self-service. Overall satisfaction with the system has been high. The analysis identifies that improvement in planning and resource management is urgently needed to meet the challenges in development. Recommendations include increased training and improvement of support materials for users, greater engagement throughout all phases of the project lifecycle, and a focus on system integration and process accuracy. Implementation of these recommendations will ensure full benefits from the HRMS ERP and enhance overall organizational efficiency.
