Self service focus cuts costs, improves efficiencies*

Brisbane based Aurion now has 35 Councils using its HR and Payroll system.

“Self service has been a major contributor to our success, because it ensures Council employees have 24 x 7 access to their own information and workspace,” said Aurion Managing Director, Silvano Basso. “This freedom, coupled with Aurion’s strengths in reporting and online forms, helps deliver a powerful return on investment argument for Councils. We also ensure we comply with all existing and new legislation that affects Government enterprises, including as the new Workchoice rules. We see our role as empowering ‘whole of business HR’, where everyone who works for the Council, and any business process that relies on HR information, is a ‘customer’ of the HR solution.”

Aurion delivers productivity savings through process automation, process integration, shared or common services, remaining cost competitive in the market, managing an ‘on demand’ workforce and improved governance.

Internet self service, workforce management, reporting, workflow and business integration are all keys to ‘whole of business HR’ because they simplify HR management and deliver productivity savings across the entire business.

Single Sign on

Aurion has released a Single Sign-on (SSO) enhancement to the market. SSO enables a single action of user authentication to permit a user to access all computers and systems where he or she has access permission, without the need to enter multiple passwords.

Conference update

Aurion’s first national conference will be held on the Gold Coast at the end of October. Visit aurion.iamevents.com.au/program.html for more details.
