Integrated HR, financial and supply chain processes support healthcare organization's technology and business strategies
ST. PAUL, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 23, 2008--Lawson Software (Nasdaq: LWSN) today announced that Mayo Clinic has completed its implementation of the Lawson S3 Human Capital Management Suite, including the Employee & Manager Self-Service applications. The new applications will help the healthcare provider maximize employee potential, and provide decision makers with the data they need to make informed, rapid decisions about the workforce that directly support business operations.
The implementation marks the completion of phase two of the Mayo Administration Goal for Integrated and Coordinated Systems (MAGIC) initiative, an organization-wide effort to streamline business processes and improve data sharing, reporting and regulatory compliance. The first phase of the initiative, completed in 2006, included deployment of the Lawson S3 Enterprise Financial Management and Supply Chain Management Suites.
Mayo Clinic is one of the largest integrated, not-for-profit group practices in the world with major sites in Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla., and Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. and a network of hospitals and clinics under the Mayo Health System name. Collectively, the sites treat more than half a million people each year. The unified Lawson system will serve more than 3,400 physicians, scientists and researchers and 48,200 allied health staff at the organization.
Lawson's Web-based Employee & Manager Self-Service applications give employees ownership of their personal information, such as benefits enrollment, vacation balances, and electronic pay statements.
