FrontlineHR™ - Technical Specification
The software is produced using ASP 3.0 written in VBScript.
Data storage is provided by an RDBMS. The standard product
currently uses Microsoft Access although the system can be
modified for use with other database systems such as SQL
Server or Oracle.
Work is currently underway on a .NET version of the system
that will be available from mid 2003 and will offer the
following benefits:
- Richer client interface functionality
- Improved speed
- Modular design that simplifies ongoing development
- Increased scalability
The use of standard Microsoft architectures ensures continued
product support, security, stability and performance far into
the future.
Hosted service or standalone product
The FrontlineHR™ System is available as a hosted service or
can be installed directly onto your Windows-based server.
Hosting is provided on our state-of-the-art servers, covered
by an exacting Service Level Agreement. Dedicated
Microsoft-qualified professionals provide round the clock
monitoring and back-up facilities ensuring the integrity and
security of all data.
Providing FrontlineHR™ as a service lowers the initial
investment, reduces dependence on your IT function and allows
for a faster roll-out.
Should you prefer to run the software on your own intranet
server then installation is a straightforward process with
free telephone support available if required. Minimum
specifications for installation of the current ASP system onto
your own intranet server are:
- Windows NT server (or better)
- IIS version 5 (or better)
- MS Access 2000 (or better)
Please note that the .NET version (available from mid 2003)
will require a Windows 2000 (or better) server with the .NET
framework installed. The technical support which we can
offer FrontlineHR™ provides numerous benefits including:
System benefits
- Intuitive interface design. Practically all employees
are already skilled in the use of browser-based interfaces.
In addition the flow-diagram navigational system saves time
and money as users are quickly able to orientate themselves
to find the information they need.
- Minimal system administration. Common processes are
automated allowing the human element to concentrate on high
value-added tasks such as interpretation and analysis.
- 24/7 location independent access. System access is via a
regular browser-based interface. This allows the system to
support any user with Internet access. Such a facility is
becoming increasingly important as more employees work from
home or are required to manage virtual teams.
- Fast roll out. Whether you choose a hosted service or a
standalone product the whole system can be available within
days.
- Strong data security and privacy. All data is stored in
password-protected database systems that limit access to
authenticated users.
- Regular data backups and redundant systems. Our hosted
service provides industry best-practice backup procedures
including off-site storage. Redundant systems ensure the
maximum possible system up-time.
- Scalability. Adding users is simple without the need to
install costly client-side software. Enterprise scale RDBMSs
can be used to support hundreds or even thousands of users.
- Modularity. Once the system framework is in place
additional modules can be integrated with minimal disruption
to users.
