HR Software and Services Headlines
04/25 Positive Impacts of Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) in Workplace: According to a report from Adecco, 48% of U.K.
employees think AI will positively benefit them by helping them to work more flexibly, and another 65% of employees
believe that, overall, technology has actually increased the number of jobs available to them. For the world as a whole,
the majority also believe that advances in technology will continue to create more jobs than it destroys over the next
decade (54%) (Staffing Industry Analysts, 04/25/17).
04/24 Evolving Enterprise HR Systems Strategies in Asia-Pacific (“APAC”) Region: Over 40% of APAC employers and
50% of India-based employers plan to improve or develop a new enterprise HR systems strategy this year, according
to Sierra Cedar’s HR Tech Landscape Study for Asia. Corporates have seen a significant rise in their HR technology
budgets, with 56% of APAC organizations planning to increase spend in this segment. Like others, the APAC market
is seeing increased adoption of cloud-based HR systems; while only 18% of employers have a cloud-based human
resource management system (“HRMS”) today, 33% plan to have one in the next year (MoneyControl, 04/24/17).
04/24 Growth of SaaS and Hybrid Solutions in HR: The HR technology model landscape has evolved in recent years on
the back of a range of service models, including HR analytics and cloud-based offerings such as SaaS. ISG’s
projections see the number of HR SaaS and hybrid solutions continuing to grow in the years to come. By 2018, SaaS
solutions are set to represent 27% of the HR software market, at the expense of licensed & on-premise software’s
market share, while hybrid systems are project to account for an additional 18% of market share. SaaS is expected to
hit 32% of HR software market share in 2020, with hybrid systems accounting for 21% (Consultancy.uk, 04/24/17).
04/20 Digitization Driving Evolution of HR Tech Industry: As organizations increasingly move towards digitization, the
HR Tech industry has emerged as a whopping $400 billion industry, according to Josh Bersin of Deloitte Consulting.
Every company that has employees uses technology to pay, hire, train and do a bunch of other things. This is a rapidly
evolving and disruptive market comprising hundreds of solutions providers, including very large companies. With
technology evolving rapidly, HR professionals also need to be constantly educated about emerging technologies and
need to focus on tools that ensure good 'employee experience' and their well being (The Times Of India, 04/20/17).
04/20 U.S. Healthcare Staffing Market Forecast: The healthcare staffing market in the U.S. is expected to grow to $28.3
billion by 2021, representing a 13.7% CAGR between 2015 and 2021, according to Wiseguy Reports. The growing
demand for nurses in hospital and community services in a primary growth driver; the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
and the US Department of Labor pegs U.S. nurse employment to increase from 2.86 million in 2012 to 3.44 million by
2022. Also, increasing demand for a home healthcare workforce, such as dieticians, nurses, nutritionists, therapists
and home-care aides, among others, will help drive demand for temporary healthcare staffing (medGadget, 04/20/17).
04/19 Global Workforce Management (“WFM”) Market Forecast: The global WFM market is anticipated to grow from an
estimated $5.3 billion in 2016 to ~$10.1 billion by 2023, representing a 9.6% CAGR for the period, according to a
report by Research and Markets. The major boosting factors of the market are rising adoption of WFM by small- and
medium-sized businesses (“SMB”) and businesses leaning towards HR analytics. In years past, a relatively small
number of SMBs leveraged the cloud for their WFM initiatives, and even less of them actually took benefit of it. Today,
almost 50% of SMBs use mobile devices to access data stored in the cloud (Business Wire, 04/19/17).

HR Software and Services Headlines (continued)
04/19 Global Talent Management Software Market Forecast: The global talent management software market is expected
to reach $24.0 billion by 2025, according to Grand View Research. The talent management software industry is
anticipated to undergo a series of changes owing to various factors, such as the rise of freelancing and contract work,
as well as a globalized workforce. However, the most pertinent factor is the advent of new software and technologies,
such as Big Data analytics, not to mention its critical role in AI and machine learning. Mobile platforms have also
revolutionized key talent management stages, including recruitment, learning and training (PR Newswire, 04/19/17).
04/17 Global Workforce Analytics Market Forecast: The global workforce analytics market hit $439.4 million in 2015, and
is expected to reach $1.3 billion by 2022, representing a 16.7% CAGR for the period. Workforce analytics is a
combination of software and methodology that implements statistical models to employee-related data. The driving
factor for the workforce analytics market is competition within the business which leads to better business
development. Other factors, such as a huge requirement for skilled workforce, changing work dynamics, BYOD trend,
and implementing of consumer-type applications in the workplace are impelling market growth (Miltech, 04/17/17).
04/13 U.S. Staffing Market Forecast: The U.S. staffing market grew 3% in 2016, according to Staffing Industry Analysts.
Both the 2016 estimates and 2017 forecasts are downgrades from previous predictions of 4%, as staffing trends
weakened in the latter half of 2016 despite the slight improvement in GDP, which is generally a positive economic
indicator. Temporary staffing is predicted to grow 3% in 2018 to $126.8 billion. However, with a stronger recovery
projected for place & search, the overall staffing market is likely to achieve 4% growth to reach $146.6 billion (Staffing
Industry Analysts, 04/13/17).
04/12 SmartRecruiters Announces Recruiting AI: SmartRecruiters announced its Recruiting AI functionality which, as
part of the company’s modern talent acquisition suite, uses artificial intelligence to process enormous volumes of
recruiting data and then interpret that data to detect patterns that help recruiters make better decisions. Recruiting AI
applies data science to detect patterns and provide intelligent recommendations to hiring teams. In practice, this
means companies can now use AI and machine learning technologies to discover, screen and score candidates,
making the entire process more efficient (Yahoo! Finance, 04/12/17).
04/07 Global Learning Management Systems (“LMS”) Market Forecast: Global LMS revenue was estimated at ~$5.2
billion in 2016 and is expected to reach approximately $19.1 billion in 2022, representing a ~24% CAGR for the period,
according to Zion Market Research. The ongoing need for cost-effective and efficient continuous learning is a key
growth driver of the LMS market. However, lack of integration and degree of customization are hampering the
market’s growth. Nonetheless, employing cloud technology will result in the opportunity to drive long-run LMS demand
(Miltech, 04/07/17).
04/04 Global Payroll Outsourcing Market Forecast: The global payroll outsourcing market is expected to grow at a 4.4%
CAGR between 2016 and 2020, according to Research and Markets. Payroll outsourcing is the fastest-growing
segment of the global human resource outsourcing (“HRO”) market. Organizations are rapidly adopting payroll
services to achieve cost reduction. They either outsource a single process or the entire function to drive organizational
efficiencies, as managing payroll in-house involves significant costs. In fact, organizations that maintain an in-house
team spend 20% more than organizations that outsource the same functions (Green Mountain Outlook, 04/04/17).
