HumanConcepts' OrgPlus Enterprise Blueprint Collaborative Workforce Planning Solution Selected for Coveted Award by Human Resources Industry Experts

Sausalito, California - October 3, 2008 - HumanConcepts today announced that OrgPlus Enterprise Blueprint, its new Web 2.0, collaborative workforce planning solution for HR professionals and line managers, has been named as one of the "Top 10 HR Products of the Year" by Human Resource Executive® magazine. OrgPlus Enterprise Blueprint is recognized for ease-of-use, innovation and value because it enables HR professionals to proactively model the impact of workforce change spurred by transitions, growth, reorganizations or company mergers.

"Human Resource Executive® has been evaluating HR products and conducting this competition for 20 years," explained David Shadovitz, editor in chief of Human Resource Executive magazine. "Our goal has always been to identify products and services that clearly offer value to the HR community while demonstrating innovation. With OrgPlus Enterprise Blueprint, we were impressed how the solution easily creates "what if" scenarios to model workforce changes with others in a Web 2.0 environment."

"We selected HumanConcepts' OrgPlus Enterprise Blueprint to give us visibility into the impact of workforce changes as we entered into the reorganization and merger phases of two large departments at the university," commented Ana Zavaleta, HRIS Manager, University of Southern California. "The solution enabled us to model scenarios and gain clarity into our best options before embarking on significant changes, which saved us time and money and smoothed the entire reorg process."

"We are excited about receiving this prestigious award from Human Resource Executive magazine," said Martin Sacks, CEO, HumanConcepts. "The award affirms our vision behind OrgPlus Enterprise Blueprint. Our customers need a way to easily plan and collaborate around workforce changes, to do compensation planning, and to efficiently share results. OrgPlus Enterprise Blueprint drastically reduces the time it takes for our customers to plan, reorganize or to merge organizations, enabling them to quickly realize the business benefits resulting from change."
