FEASIBILITY
The project should be completed in approximately six months, so that the new system can be utilized in the second quarter of next year. The new HR system should reduce cost by eliminating multiple departments that do the job that should be done in one HR department. This should result in less overall job training, improved job efficiency and all costs pretaining to them. Having one system will also reduce data redundancy to ensure less data loss and help improve error
