Oracle HCM Cloud for Government Agencies

Chicago Housing Authority automates HR operations with Oracle HCM Cloud

Situation at Chicago Housing Authority Before HCM Implementation

The Chicago Housing Authority (CHA) is the largest owner of rental housing in the City of Chicago. The not-for-profit agency provides homes to more than 63,000 households while supporting healthy communities in neighborhoods throughout the city.

CHA’s HR operations were fraught with manual, time-consuming processes and inefficiencies throughout its existing Infor system. The agency’s HR team utilized several disjointed technologies that required duplicate entries and multiple data sources for reporting.

To improve its HR operations, CHA needed an integrated, modern cloud solution and an expert HCM implementation partner to streamline and transform its ‘Hire to Retire’ workflow.

Let’s Create Progress Together!

“The Chicago Housing Authority (CHA), the second largest housing authority in the United States, was looking for a new consolidated Human Resource and Capital Management system. CHA partnered with AST and as a team we completed the first phase of the Oracle HRIS/HRMS Cloud project in 6 months, which included Core HR/Benefits functionality and Payroll. This was a true partnership between the CHA and AST team that allowed us to successfully go live with an accelerated time schedule."
