Aquire Announces New SAP HCM Product Offerings and Partnership at SAPHR in Orlando

Irving, TX (PRWEB) March 10, 2008 -- Aquire, the global leader in workforce planning and management solutions, today announced the latest release of OrgPublisher? for SAP® solutions with real-time charting option. This new option, which is tightly-integrated with the SAP Netweaver® Portal, delivers real-time SAP® HCM data access to OrgPublisher users while leveraging all defined SAP security authorizations to automatically restrict data access. The company also announced it has entered into a partnership with Winshuttle (http://www.winshuttle.com/), a provider of user-empowered data shuttling software for use with SAP® Business Suite applications. Through this partnership, Aquire will utilize transactionSHUTTLE, an application from Winshuttle that automates the transport of information to and from Microsoft® Excel or Access and into the SAP Business Suite without any programming, script creation or IT support, to automate SAP® HCM organizational changes created with Aquire's Unifi? solution.

"As more companies find themselves faced with major organizational change initiatives such as reorganizations, mergers, HR system implementations or upgrade projects, they need solutions that integrate with their SAP Business Suite and streamline organizational changes as they happen," said Ross Melbourne, chief technology officer for Aquire.

Aquire, a certified SAP® Software Partner, has consistently led the market with innovative solutions that are optimized for SAP environments. Aquire products are highly-integrated with SAP R/3® and mySAP ERP® solutions. Today, more than 600 SAP customers around the world use OrgPublisher (http://www.orgpublisher.com/)to chart, view, model and analyze organizational hierarchies and human capital information contained within their SAP system.

Aquire raised the bar in workforce planning and management with the introduction of Unifi (http://www.aquire.com/products/unifi/)3 in 2007, the industry's only solution today that delivers visual workforce modeling, management and reporting capabilities to support today's most difficult business challenges. Unifi is the central platform within HR that facilitates organizational planning and management activities that occur during workforce transitions such as reorganizations, merger integration projects, succession planning and even HR system transitions.

"This agreement with Aquire is extremely significant to us as it allows transactionSHUTTLE to be used to add its value to enterprises world wide," said Rajat Oberoi, chief operating officer and co-founder of Winshuttle. "We are very pleased to sign this agreement with Aquire."
