A centralized model of delivering HR services

This project entails the establishment of a project team and project phases needed to initiate changes for a more centralized model of delivering Human Resource (HR) services for Holman Enterprises, LLC. The Company will be the standard bearer in maximizing Human Resource practices and Human Resource service delivery. The needs for a more centralized model of delivering HR services are as follows:

· HR generalists have been embedded in business units over the course of several years.

· The cost and difficulty of maintaining standards have increased.

· Frustrations have flared within business units in regards to inquiring a budget “hit.”

Furthermore, Holman Enterprises, LLC., has addressed possible constraints within the project pertaining to the following:

· Timelines

· Budget

· Cross functional work ethics

· Staff Changes

· Risks

The needs and constraints have been evaluated, presenting a proposition to establish a project team initiating the desired changes to the approach of delivering more centralized HR services. Holman Enterprises has designed a strategic plan providing guidance and direction for outlining the assessable goals of the project. Preparation of the project is crucial since it brings about insight into so many things that are typically involved in project delivery. These items include the team, proper communication systems, budget, risks, and even the management personnel and needs that help in speeding the project delivery (Falkner & Hiebl, 2015). The strategic planning is five step plan consisting of:

· Strategic analysis

· Guiding principles which include the organizations vision and mission

· Strategy objectives

· Flown-down objectives

· Portfolio management

A project plan to include a project charter has been created to include timelines and milestones, identified resources, and the expectations have been set with team members and stakeholders. The requirements of the project are comprised of

· Scope of the project

· Scheduling of the project

· Behavioral skills

· Determining cost, aggregation and cash flows

· Identifying potential risk and how to manage possible sources

· Maintaining and sustaining progress

From the contemporary global economy perspectives, project management discipline underpins a wide range of economic activities and drives business success by ensuring the effective utilization of existing resources, as well as the horizontal and vertical workflow in an organization.
