Holding Company Sibirsky Cement OJSC, Kemerovo city, is the leader in high quality cement and construction materials production and supply in Siberian Federal District. The company integrates three cement plants (Topkinsky Cement LLC, Krasnoyarsky Cement LLC, and Timlyuisky Cement Plant LLC), network of concrete assets Sibirsky Beton LLC, as well as Volna Works LLC producing chrysotile cement roofing and flat sheets and pipes.

In 2011, Sibirsky Cement specialists continued developing efficient data collection and processing system which allows for operational and precise measurement of the staff performance. For this, the company needed to introduce unified standards and salary regulations for different employees. Moreover, it was required to reduce costs associated with operational receipt of consolidated information related to all companies integrated in the holding. The Unified Salary Calculation Center for all companies integrated in Sibirsky Cement was driven by these tasks. Great preparation including BOSS-Personnel Manager HRM system (software developed by BOSS, Personnel Systems, incorporated in I.T. Group), its transfer to the unified Oracle platform in all divisions preceded the center construction.

One of the difficulties which was faced by I.T. specialists during the project implementation were modifications made to the existing HRM systems. Moreover, the number of such modifications was big, most of them were not documented. To this end, their adaptation to modern system version required great efforts. Finally, this task was solved, and big input was made by design team of the customer. Now, HRM system is operated by more than 40 users.

Management of Sibirsky Cement was able to assess the quality of the works performed, as well as BOSS-Personnel Manager features. Currently, plans are developed for further system upgrading. In particular, possible training module implementation and development, integration of BOSS-Personnel Manager HRM system with access control system, as well as unification of payments calculations policy in all companies integrated in the holding, are considered.
