Data Managers
Preparing data in the format needed for analyses is the most time-consuming step of the people analytics process. Smart Start connects directly to your source systems, preps your data for analysis, removes duplicates, fills in the missing values, and creates a time-based view of the entire employee lifecycle.
Development
Security is one of the biggest barriers to scaling people insights to business leaders and managers. Smart Start keeps your sensitive data secure with automated controls that align detailed and aggregate content to the user’s role and responsibilities.
User Experience
One of the reasons people data initiatives fail to reach their full potential is the lack of adoption, particularly among executives and people managers. Smart Start’s intuitive user experience and built-in benchmarks and context guides users to the right questions–and the right context–so they make better, more responsible decisions.
By increasing the consistency of our tools and processes across the enterprise, we create the space for the business to be different where it matters.
