vs the old way.
Most agencies default to whatever directory their HR system ships with, which tracks a job title and little else, then patch the gap with a wiki for policies and a spreadsheet someone updates by asking around before a pitch. Each piece drifts out of date the moment the person maintaining it gets busy with something else.
A generic HR directory with job titles, a wiki nobody keeps current, and a spreadsheet of who speaks what
- A directory that lists a job title and nothing about what the person can actually do
- A wiki or shared drive nobody keeps updated once the launch enthusiasm wears off
- A spreadsheet somebody maintains by asking around before every pitch
- Separate tools for onboarding, time off, reviews, and recognition
With Signal*form
- A profile with real skills, proficiency, industries, languages, and project history
- A directory and org chart that stay current because they are the same records people already use for onboarding and reviews
- A weighted match that ranks people against what a service actually needs
- One system, scoped to one organization
