# HR Systems

## Overview

HR systems are the operational backbone for employee data and workflows. Fit-to-process and data integrity determine whether technology helps or frustrates.

## When to Use

- HRIS/ATS/LMS selection or replacement
- Process digitization in HR
- Integration between people systems
- Improving employee and manager self-service

## Core Practices

- Map processes before selecting software
- Prioritize data model, integrations, and reporting
- Design role-based access and audit trails
- Invest in change management and training
- Clean data at migration; govern it ongoing
- Measure adoption and ticket burden post-launch

## Principles

- Configuring bad process into software still yields bad process
- Employee experience of HR tech affects trust in HR
- Over-customization creates upgrade prisons
- System of record discipline prevents shadow spreadsheets

## Verification

- [ ] Requirements trace to real workflows
- [ ] Data ownership and quality rules exist
- [ ] Adoption is measured after rollout
