G/1
ORDER EXECUTION
MODULE
GENERAL COMMENT
Ø
No data should be required to be entered twice
Ø
We should be able to “CUSTOMISE” any statement/report,
simply by
·
Clicking on desired “Fields”
·
Allotting “Sequence-of-appearance” to each such
field.
If such statements/reports are meant to be sent to any outsider (client/candidate/associate
etc.), the same cannot be generated/printed out/faxed/e-mailed.
WITHOUT
Entering P. O. details
Statements/Reports generated for internal use can only be seen/viewed on
screen but cannot be faxed/emailed/printed/copied.
Ø
Any vacancy/position advertised by us in print-media
(whether for a client or for ourselves) must be treated as a Purchase Order, which
must get “linked” to the “Advt. No.”
-----------------------
If, in a particular PO, the concerned consultant feels that any particular
AST needs to be changed, he/she should approach Nirmit for modifying. This
cannot be changed unilaterally.
In course of time (at a later date) these ASTs will also be visible to
the concerned client, when we permit him SELF-MONITORING (over extranet/internet).
Actual activity-time taken (AAT) will be compared with AST and variances
(- cumulative also) will be calculated for each P. O.
These +/- ve variances will form the basis of evaluation of the
performance of a consultant in execution of that particular assignment.
When a consultant has completed 20 order/assignments, it should be
possible to plot consultant-wise FREQUENCY DISTRIBUTION CHARTS of
variances/AAT,
Built-In
productivity Measurement of each consultant has to be a KEY-FEATURE of O/E
module.
-----------------------
AND position/vacancy
No. as well.
Ø
“Client Name” is the Anchor-Point/Reference
point. This is what all of us remember and all search, will normally start by “Clicking”
on a client’s name in a dropdown list.
This is the MAIN-GATE thru which we should enter the
ORDER EXECUTION MODULE
We should NOT be able to enter O/E module WITHOUT entering/clicking
CLIENT NAME!
Every data/field should, somehow get linked to “Client Name” (or a “potential-client”
name? - eg. An inquiry from a client into an order)
Ø
“Individual Activity Time” permitted to a
consultant for each of the 21 activities should be standardised & FROZEN in
advance.
This will be called
“ACTIVITY
STANDARD TIME”
-----------------------
Ø
The O/E module must be able to access the
existing databases directly and there should be no need to construct fresh/new
masters of candidates & clients.
Our database is in Oracle 8i and we will make available the database
structure to Applitech
Ø
Back End
Oracle 8i is ok we have a licenced copy. We are trying to
get version 2.0 + IFS (Internet File Server)
Ø
Front End
Our Mr. Cyril Ovely will advise you on this
Ø
Our Web site
Not only, you should thoroughly study the present “functionality/interactivity”
of
our website but also obtain a thorough understanding of changes being
planned, from Mr. Cyril Ovely, who is working on this. Any failure in this, may
result in waste of time/effort/money all around.
For “junior-level” candidates
(College students/Fresh Graduates/Others
-----------------------
Drawing annual salary of ≤ Rs. 2 lakh), we are planning to
“sell” their resumes (to an online recruiter) for a fixed amount per resume.
Such persons, would have, in advance, authorised us (while filling-in
their resume form online on our website), to “forward” their resumes to our
online/offline corporate-clients, without taking/obtaining their permission each
time their resume get shortlisted.
When an online shopping-basket arrives (or is created offline by one of
our consultant thru localised resume-search, for an offline client) the Order
Execution Module, should be able to
Ø
Calculate the amount payable by the corporate
client
(e.g. 10 resumes X Rs. 500/ resume = Rs. 5,000)
Ø
Send out an “offer/quotation” automatically to
the concerned client by e-mail
(standard letter where blanks get filled-in automatically in case of
online shopping basket or manually by consultant in
-----------------------
Case of an offline search),
Asking client to send a D/D of Rs. 5000/=
Ø
Send-out (i.e. email) 10 full resumes (with
name/contact details) to the concerned corporate client as soon as D/D is
received & details are entered in the O/E module against that specific
Shopping Basket No/Client Name.
This “ONLINE ASLE RESUME” feature is not mentioned anywhere in the folder
given to you earlier since this is a recent development.
This is however, one of the most CRITICAL/IMPORTANT feature of the Order
Execution Module, which requires perfect/seamless integration with our website-based
process of
Ø
Online Resume-Search by head-hunter
Ø
Online Shortlisting by head-hunter
Ø
Online Filling-up of Shopping Basket
Ø
Arrival of SB at our office, triggering the
ORDER EXECUTION MODULE.
This “triggering/activating” is keyword!
