The human resources management and payroll system will serve 3.1 million military personnel located around the world.
DOD’s Defense Integrated Military Human Resource System (DIMHRS) will unify HR support for both active duty and reserve members of the armed forces. PeopleSoft’s global, pure internet human resources management solution will enable DOD to consolidate its legacy HR applications and information systems into one system, enhancing service to military personnel and dramatically lowering the agency’s administrative and maintenance costs.
With PeopleSoft’s industry-leading portal solution, DIMHRS will enable DOD to provide its military personnel with key HR information and services in such areas as benefits, payroll and pension using a standard web browser. In addition, PeopleSoft’s pure internet applications will support the unique personnel requirements of each military branch, allowing individuals to access, view and respond to their unit’s tailored information.
DOD is committed to providing our service men and women top-notch customer service for all of their human resource requirements, said Fulton Fulton, contracting officer’s representative, Department of Defense. Using PeopleSoft software, DIMHRS will increase our ability to provide military personnel with broad-based support and personalized service at home and abroad.
The U.S. Department of Defense was looking for the best technology and functional foundation to serve our country’s entire military workforce, said Ron Sullivan, vice president and general manager of PeopleSoft Federal. DOD’s selection of PeopleSoft’s collaborative, pure internet solutions will enable the agency to improve customer service for military employees. And by enabling a single HR system and eliminating the need to maintain multiple legacy systems, PeopleSoft will save the DOD a significant amount of time and money.
DOD is using PeopleSoft’s comprehensive suite of PeopleSoft 8 commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) human resources applications including payroll, benefits, time and labor, pension, and recruitment. In addition, DOD is deploying PeopleSoft’s full suite of collaborative self-service applications and workforce analytics solutions including Analysis Workbench, Rewards, and Scorecard. The DIMHRS solution is planned for implementation in 2002.
