What is human capital management for medium-sized businesses?

Human capital management, or HCM, is the overall strategy a company takes to maximising the potential of its talent. It’s a people-centred approach to human resources, so that mid-sized companies with 50 to 1,000 staff can more efficiently manage both HR and payroll using cloud-based software.

HCM gives your teams a single, comprehensive view of your talent. Your pay and HR data is consolidated in a tailored service that grows with you, reducing costs and increasing your ROI.

Building resilient companies with medium business HCM

According to research by UHY¹, the top five preoccupations of Chief Human Resources Officers (CHROs) and Chief Financial Officers (CFOs) in mid-sized companies are:

Pursuing operational efficiencies in the core business
Targeting known business and customer opportunities
Developing new ideas to address an evolving market
Investing in technology to continue remote working
Conserving cash and minimising risk

When it comes to your company, investing in HCM can help you build a more resilient organisation, using one integrated pay and HR platform. This will give your teams all the workforce information needed to understand more about your talent, helping to improve engagement, streamline operations and boost productivity – while focusing everyone’s efforts on growing the business.

Medium-sized businesses: What are your key challenges?

Is your organisation among those running 32 different payrolls and other systems, leading to high staffing costs, system complexity and a lack of integration²? Then there’s compliance. In 2019, 56,624 regulatory alerts were captured from over 1,000 bodies, averaging in 217 daily updates.³ And that was before the pandemic.

Recent research has found that 66% of decision makers are turning their focus to cost optimisation, while 34% are prioritising operational efficiencies⁴. Perhaps you’re mulling over how to increase the quality and accuracy of payroll and HR information, while struggling to integrate disparate systems to gain a more accurate workforce picture. Maybe motivating and engaging remote workers is an issue, while ensuring data privacy and security.
