Core Announce Launch of Investors In People's Interactive Online Tool Using MOSS 2007.

06 November 2007 - Core is delighted with the successful deployment and launch of Investors in People’s new business improvement online tool “Investors in People Interactive”. Core built the business improvement tool for Investors in People using Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007(MOSS 2007).

The online tool, available via www.investorsinpeople.co.uk/interactive, provides a way for all types and sizes of organisations to plan their people needs in the context of their business goals. Employers can move through a simple set of questions and scenarios to build an in-depth picture of how their organisation compares to good practice, along with a summary report that highlights areas in which they can improve. Organisations can therefore, for the first time, work interactively online with the business improvement methods that are central to the Investors in People Standard.

Simon Jones, acting Chief Executive Office, Investors in People UK, said:
“Investors in People has been working with UK employers for the last 15 years to help them enhance their success and productivity by putting people development at the core of their business. We've always prided ourselves on keeping pace with employers' needs and this new, easy-to-use tool, provides a resource where they can get a snapshot of their current performance, access free advice and work interactively with the business improvement approach that is the foundation of the Investors in People Standard.

“'Investors in People Interactive can help all employers with their strategic planning and workforce management. It delivers useful information and pinpoints areas for improvement, helping organisations to deliver on their business goals. And of course the site provides a taster of the guidance and support that organisations can gain through a longer-term relationship with Investors in People"

Eamon McGann, Technical Director of Core, said:
"MOSS 2007 enabled Core to rapidly develop and deploy complex and functionally rich business tools for consumption on the net. Building on the Portal and Enterprise Content Management functionality of MOSS 2007 users receive a rich interactive experience."
