SINGAPORE (16/11/01) – Genovate Solutions today announced the launch of its new HRMS (Human Resource Management System) and Payroll product suite, eZHR-eZPay™ that is geared to the regional SME market.

Built in pure Java™ and XML, eZHR-eZPay™ promises organizations a robust, scalable, flexible, and affordable HRMS and Payroll system which can be centrally deployed from a single server, and accessed organization-wide via Web browser. This system will allow for a variety of self-service HR functions to be accomplished by both employees and managers, adding greatly increased workflow efficiency and productivity.

The HRMS and Payroll functionalities of eZHR-eZPay™ include the ability to manage personnel data, payroll administration and distribution, process leave applications, submit claims, CPF administration, IR8A form generation, computerized payslip creation, and a host of other features seamlessly integrated into a single user-friendly interface.

eZHR-eZPay™ is aimed at the regional SME market of organizations with between five to five-hundred employees, which Genovate feels is a key area that has been previously neglected by other HRMS and Payroll products.

"Business climate and economic change are forcing HR departments, particularly in smaller organizations, to cast off their legacy as an administrative necessity and driving them to become a strategic, value-enhancing business partner contributing to the competitive advantage of the organization as a whole", said Mr. J. Anton Ravindran, CEO and co-founder of Genovate. "The eZHR-eZPay suite will provide the HR departments of these organizations with a technology that measurably improves the speed and quality of people-management decision making, thereby increasing organizational efficiency and productivity throughout".

eZHR-eZPay™ leverages the strengths of both Java™ and XML to provide organizations with a truly platform independent system and full interoperability, while also offering the utmost in scalability for growing companies. eZHR-eZPay™ can also be fully customized to meet the industry specific needs of any company, offering unlimited functionality and a versatile cross-industry HRMS and Payroll solution.

Jeffrey Allan, Director of Technology and Training at Genovate stated that, "The use of 100% pure Java™ and XML enables extensive interoperability with other platforms and enterprise applications, as well as providing for a high degree of customization, including the development of customer-specified business rules and custom features for their organization".

The eZHR-eZPay™ suite is available in several different versions which cater to organizations of varying sizes. Genovate is launching eZHR-eZPay™ with a special limited-time introductory offer starting at S$599, including integration.
