Dresser & Associates is proud to announce today the creation of the Alliance for Workforce Management, a partnership of several Sage Abra partners located throughout North America.  At the outset, the Alliance for Workforce Management will include:

• Dresser & Associates, Inc. in Scarborough, Maine
• HRMG Solutions, Inc.,  in Blue Bell, Pennsylvania
• CAPlus, Inc., Toronto, Ontario Canada
• Rising Sun Consulting, Atlanta, Georgia
• One Solutions, Inc., Miami, Florida
• HR Pay ‘n’ Time, Seminole, Florida
• People Sense – Chicago, Illinois

The premise behind the alliance is that HR and Payroll professionals can utilize technology more effectively to help reduce costs and maximize efficiencies, practices which will be especially critical in the troublesome economic times ahead. In addition, HR professionals need to become more strategic in their thinking with respect to technology and the overall objectives of their respective organization, and the members of the Alliance look forward to collaborating to assist the growth of this kind of thinking.

As companies cut costs, they become more vulnerable to losing their precious assets — their best and brightest employees. Companies need to begin looking at ways to restructure benefits to better reflect the demographics of their workforce. The Alliance for Workforce Management is designed to make better use of technology for human capital management, as well as allowing consultants dedicated to assisting the Abra community to find the necessary resources to customize benefit plans.  This gained efficiency will control benefit costs while allowing companies to continue to attract and retain their best employees.

Though HR professionals face an unprecedented set of challenges, the Alliance for Workforce Management will give them the support they need to face the road head on, as well as create a new way of thinking to support their respective organizations more strategically.
