Outline of my speach in our project meeting

Hello everyone, I am Rebecca, sorry to have kept you waiting. As you know, my boss A is on his a business travel trip today and my team member B is on his holiday which was planned nearly two month ago before our meeting. I’m happy to be here on behalf of HR Dept. to join you discussing the progress of our HR system.

First of all, I want to thank all of you for your help on this project. Especially M, you have helped us a lot to negotiate with ABC on the new system. You also help to arrange con-calls with the contacts which ABC provided.

Secondly, what I want to explain is that we have discussed leave management many times within our team. According to our organizational structure, we hope the leave management can be based on “Person” not based on “Position”. You can find that our global system is also based on person. It can definitely increase the efficiency of leave management and convenience of daily operations. Moreover, the setting base on person also keeps line with global system workday.(M, regarding the e-leave management, it’s a technical issue related with workflow; maybe you can further explain it, right?)

Apart from the solution of leave management, we still hope ABC could provide us more information about the system, especially about feedback from their current clients who have finished upgrading from Y1 to Y2.
As you know, ABC claimed that there are more than 100 clients who has have successfully finished the change from Y1 to Y2 in their database. We really don’t understand why the clients they selected from their database (the meaning is unclear) and refused to communicate with us about Y2.

Certainly, at first we told them we have no interest in their HR operation detail, but we want to know whether the solution really works and the problems they have faced. ApartfroI also spent some time to navigate their official website. I have not found any clients in Shanghai. Most of them are companied located in other provinces, for example Chongqing and Anhui. Let alone (? Most of their clients are in?) they have clients in insurance or finance industry.

Regarding our market investigation, I will be happy to discuss it. But I am afraid we don’t have enough time to get into that issue right now. If someone is interested, I can send you an email with more detail about our survey.The reason why we require ABC to provide HR contacts of their current clients is that we have done business with ABC for years. The performance of our HR system Y1 which ABC provided since 2009 is poor. (to be continued)
