Managing Projects

Your dashboard tags every engagement so you can easily differentiate between them. All APHR client work falls under three main verticals:

1. Bespoke HR Projects – Tailored HR initiatives like recruitmnet, policy development, HR audits, or organizational design. These are one-time scoped projects.
2. HRBP-as-a-Service (HRaaS) – Ongoing, retainer-based HR partnership where APHR functions as your HR department or strategic HRBP.
3. HR Systems & Automation – Implementation and integration of digital HR tools, workflows, and automation systems that have your HR processes working based on pre-set workflows and triggers.

Your dashboard clearly tags each project by type so you can differentiate between your initiatives.

Navigate to the Projects tab to see your work board, you can see every active engagement at a glance. Each project card displays:

• Title & Description — what the project is about.
• Assigned Partner — your lead consultant or HRBP.
• Current Stage & Milestones — e.g., Discovery, Drafting, Review, Final Delivery, visible on your project board, with due dates.
• Activity Log — timestamped updates and shared files.

You’ll also receive in-app notifications and emails whenever:

• A milestone is completed.
• A new deliverable is uploaded.
• Your feedback is requested.

📅 You can sync project deadlines to your Google Calendar or Outlook for easier follow-up.

Completed work isn't lost; it moves to your Archive. Here, you can download final deliverables, access impact summaries and lessons learned, review timelines and compare project outcomes, or duplicate a project brief if you need to repeat a similar request in the future. This ensures you retain institutional memory, even if your internal HR team changes.

Ready to start something new? Click the “New Project” button on the top right of your dashboard. You’ll be prompted to:

1. Select your goal or desired outcome (e.g., “Develop HR policies,” “Automate employee onboarding”).
2. Choose your project category.
3. Add detailed context, target outcomes, and attach supporting files.
4. Submit your request.

Once submitted:

• Our internal system reviews your request.
• You’re automatically mapped to the most suitable vertical.
• A Project Summary Sheet is generated and shared with you for review before kickoff.

⚙️ Automation Insight: The A1 hub uses a proprietary matching engine combining your onboarding data, keywords, and service backlog to assign the right consultant — ensuring expertise alignment and speed.

After your project brief is reviewed and approved, you’ll receive:

• A Project Summary Sheet outlining objectives, deliverables, and SLAs.
• An Invoice Notification for project commencement.
• A Kick-off Meeting Link (via Google Meet or Zoho Meeting).

Once your invoice is settled, your APHR Partner will initiate the project kickoff, introducing your delivery team and next steps.

💬 Best Practice: Keep all communication related to the project within your dashboard to maintain version history and ensure transparency.
