HumanConcepts Announces OrgPlus Mobile™

Organizational information delivered on mobile devices

Sausalito, Calif. - September 29, 2010 - HumanConcepts, the leading provider of workforce decision support solutions, today announced OrgPlus Mobile™ at the annual HR Technology Conference in Chicago. OrgPlus Mobile improves productivity by delivering organizational information anytime, anywhere, and empowers users to tap into valuable colleague resources for collaboration and problem solving. With access to contact information, org charts, and metrics over a mobile device or smart phone, employees are equipped to identify and contact colleagues whether they are at their desk or working remotely.

OrgPlus Mobile provides always-current employee contact and profile information through an iPhone app securely tied to an organization's HR systems. Using iPhone, Blackberry or other mobile device, workers can immediately address time sensitive issues. OrgPlus Mobile:

  • Improves productivity by delivering anytime, anywhere contact information in the context of the org chart
  • Empowers users to tap into valuable organizational resources for collaboration and problem solving
  • Equips managers to quickly contact teams or key employees when emergencies disrupt business as usual
  • Supports planning and decision making by delivering critical organizational data

Mobile devices are becoming ubiquitous for a large portion of the workforce, with many workers using them throughout the day to access and respond to emails, schedule appointments, make phone calls and conduct quick searches. Field employees such as sales, service or consulting are more often on the go than in an office and frequently rely on mobile devices as their primary communications interface. "OrgPlus Mobile is a natural extension to the HR information system infrastructure," said Martin Sacks, President and CEO, HumanConcepts. "By placing organizational information in the hands of employees in a convenient format, it keeps the entire enterprise connected and enables all employees to make valuable person-to-person connections more efficiently."

The OrgPlus Mobile iPhone app is available for free download at the iTunes App Store. The application allows users to preview OrgPlus Mobile features using a demo user account with access to sample organizational data, including:

  • Corporate directory search
  • Org chart navigation
  • Ability to view employee profiles with worker picture, title, phone, email
  • Access to key organizational metrics e.g. headcount, span-of-control
  • Smart searches that deliver phonetic results
  • Phone call and email initiation
  • Ability to add contacts directly to favorites
  • Access to recently viewed contacts when offline
  • Use of optional passcode protection
