Ergon automate skills frameworks and self-certification processes

Ergon, provider of human performance improvement (HPI) services, has selected InfoBasis Enterprise Skills Infrastructure (ESI) to automate the skills frameworks and self-certification processes it offers clients.

"InfoBasis ideally complements our business profile. They consider people as a company's most important asset rather than as just a commodity. The implementation of InfoBasis ESI will significantly streamline our approach to skills frameworks and self-certification by automating the manual, paper-based processes we use with clients," commented Nigel Wallis, Operations Director at Ergon. "InfoBasis ESI will enable us to assess more effectively an individual's capability for a specific role. This will in turn help our clients to achieve considerable performance improvement, enabling them to use their staff's skills more effectively.

We are delighted with the flexibility of InfoBasis ESI as it is highly configurable and can be modified to precise requirements, yet at the same time it has open-ended potential to incorporate new applications to broaden the product further. Significantly for us, the solution can be hosted as an application service or deployed in-house. This allows pricing and deployment to suit every organisation. Another advantage is compatibility, as the solution can use data from, or provide details for integration with, other information systems."

Ashley Wheaton, CEO at InfoBasis, commented, "By implementing InfoBasis ESI, Ergon will be able to better service the needs of its customers and therefore achieve greater success in future projects. Ergon will also experience improved relationships within the skills management world enabling them to forge further business alliances with, for example, trade and Government bodies, and our resellers."
