Presentation to Showcase FedEx Ground's Use of Outsourced ASP Model to Deliver Innovative Range of Employee Self-Service Solutions
FRAMINGHAM, Mass. (April 7, 2004) - Workscape, Inc., a proven provider of benefits and workforce management solutions, today announced that its director of customer programs, Ed Colby, will co-present with clients Catherine Hoferka, senior manager, HRIS and Hope M. Martin, managing director, compensation and benefits, both of FedEx Ground, at the IHRIM 2004 Conference and Exposition, April 15th - April 17th at the Rosen Centre Hotel in Orlando, Florida.
The joint presentation will address how FedEx Ground's drive for excellence and innovation in the package delivery business has translated into a comprehensive corporate initiative, "Nothing But Net," designed to streamline and generate efficiencies in all enterprise areas, including HR. To meet the goal of "Nothing But Net," FedEx Ground HR partnered with Workscape to implement its outsourced application service provider (ASP) model and enable a range of Web-based employee self-service applications—from automating the workflows associated with hiring a prospective candidate, to providing employee profile and payroll data, to administering benefits for retirees—all with impressive results.
The presentation will demonstrate how and why FedEx Ground selected the ASP delivery model; the organizational, political, and implementation challenges overcome; and the resulting benefits for the FedEx Ground workforce. This instructional presentation will also include a live demonstration of FedEx Ground's numerous HR self-service capabilities. Details follow:
