PHR Human Resources Exam Prep

Answer - D - All of the above will need to be addressed in a needs analysis to select an HRIS.

Key Takeaway: As with any project, selecting an HRIS must first begin with a needs analysis to identify a number of key questions. Will the system share any data with other systems in the company? What information will be input into the HRIS? Who will have access to the information in HRIS? Where will the HRIS reside (on the Web? On the Intranet?)? What kinds of reports will the company need to pull from the information on the HRIS? Only once these questions are asked can research begin on a system that will effectively meet the company’s needs.
