Finding the Talent Management Systems
Software Market Confusing?

Don’t feel bad, you’re not alone!

HRchitect can help you sort out this dynamic market and select the right Talent Management Systems (TMS) software for your company’s unique needs. Today’s TMS software market consists of a complex combination of vendors offering partial components of the complete solution, including Applicant Tracking Systems, Performance Management, Succession Planning, Compensation Management, e-Learning and Competency Management Systems. New innovative products continue to be introduced monthly while the market consolidates around several leading TMS suites vendors. To add to the challenge, traditional HRMS vendors including Lawson, Oracle and SAP are now delivering different components of Talent Management Systems software products. Here are just a few questions that HRchitect can help you answer during the software evaluation and selection process.

Which vendors currently have the products, vision, technical architecture, customer base and viability to provide a long-term TMS solution?

Should you consider TMS modules offered from your existing HRMS vendor or a “best-in-class” product?

How easy is it to configure or customize your TMS solution to meet your company’s current and future talent acquisition and talent management needs?

What is the real cost of data integration to your HRMS?

Should you consider a TMS Suite and which vendors offer this?
