Background

Australian Wool is the result of a merger between the Australian Wool Marketing Authority and the Australian Wool Board. The organisation had completed an ERP Evaluation Project and decided to proceed with an SAP solution. One of the key requirements was for Human Capital Management (HCM) but it was decided that this would be evaluated as a separate system and integrated to the existing Payroll.

Business Challenge

Australian Wool required the following functionality in an HCM Solution:

  • Ability to manage HR related information capture and reporting.
  • Management of Organisational Charts.
  • Management of Leave, particularly for overseas staff.
  • Management of the Approval to Recruit process.
  • Management of Performance Appraisal and Assessment of staff.

Results

CMC was engaged to conduct the independent HCM Evaluation. CMC’s Evaluation Methodology was utilised to facilitate the decision-making process. The RFP was delivered and following successful due diligence and commercial negotiations the organisation decided to proceed with Frontier’s Chris21 package. The HCM solution was then implemented.
