As children, we always wanted our parents to check under our beds, in our closets and under the blankets for the “boogie-man.” Nightmares of some dark presence gave us chills and left us awake in the middle of the night with nothing but silence and a cold sweat. And while I’m uncertain how HR Technology stacks up against Freddy Krueger, it can cause angst and frustration among companies who fear the unknown.
That’s where we come in.
At Lockton, we live and breathe service to our clients. With our variety of expertise in the industry as both HR Practitioners as well as a part of HR Vendors, we give our clients the ammo they need in their arsenal to take down the challenges they face with HR Technology. Be it a complex, 12,000 life group with global associates, or the 50 employee grocer trying to simplify their payroll, our team is ready to come to the rescue.
Of course, if you’re that 12,000 employee company, there are consultants lined up around the block to bill you by the hour. But for those smaller, less complex clients, it can be harder to navigate the waters of HR Technology. With such a variety of vendors offering a multitude of services, an employer can easily get lost. With what we call our “Targeted Technology” service, we help narrow the numerous options for an employer.
Think of it as an old-time gas station. The attendant (Lockton’s HR Technologists), can come out and pump your gas, wash your windows and check your oil. While that would be typical of our Custom Consulting service, our Targeted Technology is more like the self-service pumps right up front. There are a handful of fuel selections (partnered Vendors), each with their own specialty. You pick which best fits your make and model and head out on your next adventure.
Really folks, it’s that simple.
Our Targeted Technology service currently consists of four vendors with a few different “service pumps.” We’ve built relationships [in other words, they survived our “Vendor Gauntlet of Death!”] with these folks so that employers receive the benefit of Lockton preferred pricing. Along with the discounted rates, Lockton is armed with information to help those clients make the best decision possible. And if your cruiser has some other dings in it that may be of concern down the road, we can help with that too.
But what about the boogie man still under the bed?
When night falls, and the creaks in the night cause your company concern, know that the HR Technology “boogie-man” can be thwarted with the help of our gurus. Armed to the teeth with industry knowledge, valued partnerships and a knack for solving problems, Freddy Krueger doesn’t stand a chance.
