HRIS SYSTEMS AND SYSTEMS ARCHITECTURE


HRIS architecture systems have three models that we can use in our companies that we work which is standalone system model, data warehouse model, and single integrated system model. Now, I will explain about standalone system model.  This system has its own independent system and no integration between each other. So, all business units have to send updates via fax, telephone, mail, or in person. As a result, it will make the process of communication are difficult to understand and being accepted especially when doing a data analysis. Other than that, it also will cause many-headed monster approach.  It means that, if all of the branches have to do their own system and believe that his/her concessions are true, they will not accept others people opinion. This model is usually being used in multinational organization.

The second model is data warehouse model. In this model, the database will be set up for each region or country and there are using same software system to communicate between each other. So, all operating units can updated their information and will be easier to solve problem in the organization and also to improve company around the world. For example in international HRIS, there are used data warehouse model. The International HRIS wants to balance between the local autonomy and central oversight. So, with data warehouse model, they can fix the unbalanced skills sets and operations around the world. It is because, the resources, knowledge, innovation and so on can be shifted and shared among operating units. But, there is not everyone is uses the same database and they are only use the same software system.

The last model is single integrated system model. This system is more advanced and using a high technology compared to others. It’s generally located at corporate headquarters and the employees will get information directly from the top management. So, there is no need for a separate reporting database and the employees will not lack of information because all the department will get all the information that are provide by others (Beaman.K, et all, 2000).
