Northgate HR Launches ResourceLink in the US

Proven, Full-Featured, Scalable HRMS and Payroll Solution Offers Low Total Cost of Ownership and Rapid Implementation

October 10, 2007

HR TECHNOLOGY EXPO, CHICAGO – Oct. 10, 2007 – Northgate HR, a supplier of specialist software, IT services and outsourcing solutions to the human resources (HR) and public services market, today announced that its ResourceLink HR management system (HRMS) is now available to companies in the United States. ResourceLink is a full-featured HR administration and payroll application for managing multiple functions, including absence and leave, performance goals, succession planning, compensation, training and recruitment, as well as manager and employee self-service. Deployed by hundreds of companies, ResourceLink is proven to address the increasingly complex HR needs of mid-market companies.

Because of its ease of configuration, ResourceLink can be rapidly implemented throughout an organization with less time and investment than other major packages. This, coupled with ResourceLink’s competitive license cost, makes the solution ideal for medium-sized and growing companies wanting low Total Cost of Ownership and rapid implementation to meet their strategic HR business needs. The system draws information from a single core database, meaning that once data is entered in the system about an employee or position, it is then available to all other modules and managers via role-based privileges, making it ideal for growing companies which must coordinate HR functions across multiple locations.

ResourceLink can be delivered via an in-house, hosted or outsourced model, offering HR managers a choice of deployment options to suit their needs. It is a modularized offering, enabling organizations to implement the functionality they currently need while laying the foundation for a fully-integrated HR and payroll solution.

ResourceLink represents Northgate’s first product entry into the US, following its acquisition of ARINSO International, a global HR outsourcing, HR strategy and systems integration firm. The new, combined organization offers end-to-end HR solutions, encompassing systems integration, HR outsourcing and technology solutions and implementation. The company currently serves more than 100 of the Fortune Global 500 companies and employs 6,000 people in 30 countries, including the UK, Canada and the United States.
