IRVING, Texas – September 22, 2008 – Aquire, the global leader in workforce planning and management solutions, announced today it will unveil advanced succession planning and organizational modeling modules for its industry-leading OrgPublisher™ solution at Oracle OpenWorld 2008 in San Francisco, September 21 to 25. Aquire will also offer attendees an exclusive sneak preview of its new OrgPublisher for PeopleSoft® solution.
With organizations facing increased pressure to improve key talent management and organizational change initiatives, Aquire has extended its easy-to-use visualization technologies to support these vital tasks by introducing the OrgPublisher Advanced Succession Planning Module and Advanced Organizational Modeling Module. Succession planning and organizational modeling are highly dependent upon corporate hierarchies and reporting relationships, so extending OrgPublisher to visually create, maintain and analyze succession plans, 9-box matrices and organizational models is a natural extension to the product line. By viewing the information in context, managers and executives will gain better information visibility which will ultimately lead to better decision making and higher productivity.
“Our advanced module series is designed to further extend the functionality of OrgPublisher for our clients with specific and intensive succession planning and organizational modeling needs,” said Tom McKeown, President and COO of Aquire. “They represent our ongoing dedication to providing our customers with cost-effective methods for solving serious HR issues and challenges.”
Aquire’s advanced modules, available as powerful options to OrgPublisher, are easy to implement and deploy, requiring minimal IT resources thanks to Aquire’s web-based architecture. In addition, features like centralized data access, collaborative sharing and drag-and-drop editing tools provide benefits like:
• Better information access and awareness
• Increased planning and HR productivity
• Fewer data entry errors
• Significantly reduced time and resource requirements
• Improved leadership pipeline management and employee retention
