The Impact of Implementing A Performance Management System on the Grass Root Level of the Company

Updated: Dec 25, 2020


As a commercial undertaking, organizational performance is a result of the collective efforts of all employees. The main focus always lies on the top managers because the conventional approach requires only upper bottlenecks to be checked. However, the modern approach focuses on addressing the organization in totality elaborately. The contemporary Performance Management Systems use automation to acquire an enormous amount of data on employee behavior and output. The PMS acts as a common platform for all the employees to bring them under a single roof for performance measurement and management purposes. The employees on the grass root level are accommodated, and they are utilized as equally useful resources. This article shall narrate the implementation of a dedicated Performance Management System on each employee of the company. Moreover, we shall also consider the single window processing of all the employee related functions with automation capabilities. Dive in deeper for getting in-depth insights into the topic.


Process Streamlining and Centralization:


The PMS enables the employers to make proper workload allocation to all the resources. The staff personnel shall record their day to day activities. All the activities are converted into KRA and KPI components. These components are developed by the HR administrator as per the concerned job profile, and the system interprets the percentage achievement of the task based on the seniority of the employee. The PMS allows the user to streamline their daily work by giving insights to priority order to be set, feedback of the quality improvement, time utilization factor, and coordination with the entire team. As the system records information on a real-time basis, the decision makers can avail the data from the grass root level. Every transaction made by the staff provides a layout of the progress, and any emergency can be predicted well before it arises. The management can take decisions on allocating the workload in a particular fashion. They can also decide the distribution of the manpower. The autonomy is transferred effectively, yet the core decision making is improved as all members of the organization are involved in the process.


Integrating Payroll Processing and Performance Management:


The main advantage of automation in this aspect is integrating performance management with the employee’s salary. All the performance parameters are converted into the pay components. The pay policy is designed in such a way that there is a fixed part of the salary, and the other one is kept variable. The variable portion is further bifurcated in the achievement benchmarks which have different pay scales. The system generates the salary as per the goals set by the team leader and the individual employee. The incentivizing of the positive traits leads to the work culture becoming more welcoming to the hard-working staff. The accountability driven culture also helps the team to realize their potential even in the junior positions. The grass root level employees are provided assistance in making better decisions with the help of digital assistants. Subsequently, the reflection of their dedication is seen in their salaries, which is a significant motivating factor for these staff members as financial prospects are more important than any other form of incentivization. For instance, the salesmen can be given a small percentage as an incentive which shall be a considerable amount for them, but the company’s profit stays mostly unaffected.


Talent Nurturing:


As the PMS acts as a digital assistant, the new joiners and intermediate level employees can benefit the most. They are provided with data from the previous employees’ performance, which can prove to be useful to them. Also, they can be guided by their reporting managers because of access to daily activities. The pms in hr allows the users to make the assessment of their own work with detailed information on the daily work in forms of reporting. These reports contain the working pattern, the average time taken for a particular activity, and the standard reference for each procedure.


On the management’s end, the employers can provide important pieces of training based on the PMS data. Thus, all the staff members are taken care of equally. Most of the businesses struggle not at the top level, but the bottom level requires the most attention. As the financial limitations don’t allow dedicated focus by humans, the performance management software proves to be a great alternative in the current scenario.
