Performance reviews require a lot of time to pull together and often get shoved to the bottom of the pile until the next review cycle. With automated employee performance reviews, managers will be able to consistently and easily update employee performance evaluations throughout the year. When evaluation time comes, you will have relevant and accurate reports.

• Generate cumulative review forms
• Run 360-degree performance reviews
• Manage off-cycle reviews
• Ensure timely review completion through email reminders.

Easily identify competency and skill gaps within your organization using 180- and 360-degree feedback, self-assessments, and custom-built competency models. Sage HRMS Performance Management can dynamically generate an individual development plan and recommend training or developmental activities based on an employee's competency assessment.

• Create and manage single-level and multi-level competency models, or import existing models.
• Assess employee strengths and weaknesses.
• Analyze results in real time.
• Dynamically generate individual development plans.

A core feature of the integrated learning and performance environment is the development plan. Managers can work with individual employees to develop personalized career development plans.

• Develop high-performing employees for future job growth.
• Track progress of planned, free-form, on-the-job, and external training.
• Directly tie development plans to the competency assessment process.

In many industries, fulfillment of required competencies cannot be measured on a typical rating scale or as part of an annual review. Use the innovative Observation Checklist to systematically assess and monitor employee skills and performance in the field, while employees are doing their jobs.
The Observation Checklist lets you assign validators or verifiers to assess competence or successful completion of tasks as employees are at work in the field. For example, check off observed clinical skills as nurses are providing care, or ensure compliance with critical safety procedures as your employees operate in a manufacturing setting.

• Give verifiers, validators, or preceptors easy access to observation checklists
• Replace inefficient, paper-based processes
• Ensure that regulatory reporting is accurate and timely
• Use pre-integrated competency models specific to certain industries
• Specifically define observation ratings and methods

The compensation function manages all types of employee compensation programs including salary, merit increases, market adjustments, lump sum payments, and other discretionary pay components. It also simplifies processes around administering meaningful incentive programs for the distribution of bonus and salary and delivers a range of tools to increase transparency and visibility for administrators and managers.

Business succession planning helps you develop multiple succession scenarios for any position within your organization. Easily develop succession plans that develop talent for future roles and map development paths years before the talent gap occurs. You can also measure employee retention risks and design development plans to challenge and promote your talent.

Reduce recruiting costs and time by identifying top internal candidates. Easily match available job openings with candidate skills, prior job roles, education, diversity, performance, potential, and retention risk. You can quickly search candidates as well as see an automatic candidate ranking.

Succession management tools in Sage HRMS Performance Management include the ability to produce highly graphical and interactive organizational charts that not only reflect the current hierarchy of your organization (or specific business units), but also allow for modeling potential changes within the hierarchy.

Empower employees to take an active role in their career development within the organization. Career planning is shown to boost employee engagement and retention, and helps your business to align employees with the best-fit roles.

The Talent Profile functions as every employee's identification card, detailing user record information, performance ratings, succession management data, collaboration activity, ad hoc manager comments, and more.

Today, information moves fast and changes daily. Being able to find people, expertise and experience on the fly is increasingly an important part of getting the job done in the modern workplace. Employees are also increasingly demanding new and more innovative ways to locate information and connect with colleagues.

Work smarter by connecting with the right people, skills, and interests across your organization. People Finder allows users to quickly find coworkers on the basis of where they work, what they do, skills they possess, interests they’ve declared, and more. While viewing the search results, employees can immediately connect with others, send emails, or save the results as a working group or project team.

The ability to provide continuous feedback with employees does not have to stop with the formal performance appraisal process. Increasingly organizations are deploying less formal types of employee recognition that can be driven by HR or by employees themselves.

Your organization can establish its own specific types of recognition. Maybe you only want to award a formal badge for a corporate-sanctioned "Employee of the Month" program. Or perhaps you want to let all employees give an informal "Pat on the Back" to any other employee for a recent working group experience. The employee recognition tool is completely configurable.
