Manage End-to-End Processes Around
Workforce Separations

Capturing best practices of Fortune 100 companies, Transition Manager is the standard for managing workforce separation events. Transition Manager facilitates decision making, streamlines processes and manages workflow to handle workforce separations and RIFs in a structured, organized manner. Purpose-built to manage workforce transitions, it provides the best practice methodology absent from in-house solutions.

Transition Manager empowers you to make the most informed, consistent decisions throughout a workforce separation event. There is simply no better way to manage the processes around workforce change. Transition Manager features:

Event Definition

• Define separation events to include both voluntary and involuntary event types, quantitative event objectives (e.g. reduce costs, reduce headcount, etc), milestones, status and history tracking, and workflow management
• Manage multiple events simultaneously and connect them to create complex projects - making large scale workforce alignments manageable

Eligibility Management

• Easily identify who is eligible for both voluntary and involuntary initiatives
• Set specific rules for supervisors, managers and/or directors to consider as they evaluate each eligible employee. Common factors include business units, job functions, salary grades, skill sets, performance and locations.

Decision-Making Assistance

• A comprehensive set of functions enable decision-makers or assessors to view each individual and to make the appropriate decision based on agreed criteria
• Assessor tools allow assessors to rate each employee on specific factors for a consistent, structured approach. Factors include skills, competencies and performance or other customer defined factors.
• Flexible workflow enables assessors to tag employees as exceptions, consider

Scenario Modeling

• Model complex "what if" scenarios to find optimal solution
• Calculate projected event costs such as severance, outplacement, special payments and vacation - items very often overlooked during manual modeling
• Instantly calculate total base salary remaining within the organization vs. base salary being removed, with and without overhead to evaluate whether proposed action meets objectives
• Produce reports outlining projected costs against targets

Exit Processing

• Automate the off-payroll process, managing notification, separation and payment transactions to ERP/HRMS and/or payroll systems
• Deliver documentation to notified employees and send instant e-mail alerts when event status, data or payment amount changes
• Easily manage all of the data required to produce separation packages. Calculate severance components using a flexible compensation definition

Information Access

• Rapidly deploy of role-based, self-service portals that enable access to relevant information and tasks for managers, assessors, employees
• Provide employee access to company-defined content including exit checklists, forms, guidelines, news, policies and procedures - all through a web browser

Workflow Management

• Ensure that appropriate steps are taken across applicable events, workgroups and populations with automated workflow

Reporting & Analytics

• Generate reports, audit history tracking and alerts to comply with WARN, EEO, Adverse Impact, Diversity, Age Distribution, ADEA, Union Labor Contracts, SOX 404 policy, Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, and other regulations
• Generate pre-defined reports, such as adverse impact, age discrimination, event cost and progress, to keep key managers informed of the critical details of the event as it progresses
• Track real-time event progress through checklist status and event extract reporting that shows how well the organization is meeting its progress objectives. Eliminate the need for time consuming, and nearly impossible, manual or ad-hoc reporting.

Transition Manager extracts employee information from core HRIS systems then submits event results to update systems.
