The Encompass Group sought a platform that would provide its clients with comprehensive human resources insights, including the information they need to make data-driven decisions in their efforts to maintain a happy and productive workforce.

SimplifiedHR was developed to replace the annual reviews that were previously in place. While insightful, these yearly HR reviews represented a single data point and as a result, they were of limited use. This meant that an organization could opt to implement changes in response to the annual review’s findings, but they would need to wait the better part of a year to obtain data on the success or failure of that initiative.

Artificial intelligence is used to continuously monitor a team’s “HR Health.” The platform highlights factors that indicate whether a team member needs attention or, conversely, is deserving of positive recognition such as a promotion. This is achieved using more than 20 continuously-monitored data points for each team member. This includes employee surveys, which are administered to staff on a biweekly or monthly basis, as well as performance reviews, salary to market data, commute times and several other key areas that contribute to employee retention.
