Pilat to Expand U.S. Consulting Practice

LEBANON N.J. (HRmarketer/PRWEB ) July 13, 2004 - - Pilat, committed to Powering Performance and Potential SM through its succession planning, performance management, talent management, development management, and 360 degree assessment software and services, today announced that they will be expanding their U.S. consulting practice.

HR continues to struggle with decision-support system purchases, despite the mounting evidence that organizations benefit from HR initiatives aligned with overall business goals" shared Pilats CEO and Principal Consultant, Clinton Wingrove. "Todays human resource professional needs to become a strong advocate of ROI-focused change; achieving this through HR process improvements that are directly linked to business strategy. The ROI can be dramatically enhanced by contemporary technology. However, much HR technology has been designed from a purely IT or transaction cost reduction perspective, is purchased by HR professionals who know little about what is now available (particularly in terms of behavioral engineering tools), and is often implemented with inadequate attention to the people and change management issues. The result? Initial success, if lucky, followed by low or negative ROI as the initial excitement of implementation wanes."

Pilats nearly 30 years of HR process consulting and data analysis drove the development of HR Pulse® , the leading HR Rapid Application Development toolkit. Pilat has used HR Pulse to build a range of sophisticated applications to drive, underpin and sustain Performance Management, Talent Management (including Succession Planning), Development Management, and Multi-rater Feedback. They are designed to improve individual, team and organizational performance and exemplify thought leadership, robust technology design, applied behavioral engineering, and a focus on practical implementation that can only come from extensive international experience."

Unlike many software houses that are only now adding or acquiring consulting, the Pilat consulting practice has been integral to both product development and the Pilat offering for over two decades. The same international consulting team offers a second to none resource for implementing sustainable processes and systems. Existing Pilat clients have always had access to Pilats International Consulting Practice and these resources will now be available to new US clients. Organizations that may not want, or dont even know if they want, HR software or data services can be helped to make an objective determination and develop a long term strategic plan before committing to any one solution; and know that they will have experienced support throughout the implementation."

Pilat is also expanding its US services to assist its clients with ensuring sustainable integrated processes and systems through effective training. Pilat now offers a full range of training design and implementation services and products to support Performance all its offerings."

If clients are willing to take their projects seriously enough to work with us to define the ROI and how it will be measured, we will enter into results-based pricing agreements; we know we can make a sustained measurable difference."
