iCIMS and Valiant Partner to Expand Human Capital and Workforce Management Offerings — Technology Platforms Integrate in Best-of-Breed Alliance.
HRchitect featured iCIMS our May 2008 release of The Suite Life of Integrated Talent Management and also includes them in our list of top Talent Acquisition Systems vendors that businesses should consider. iCIMS was featured on an HRchitect WebMingle in December 2008 and competed in both the Talent Acquisition Systems Beauty Pageant in November and the mid-market Talent Acquisition Systems Beauty Pageant in January 2009, where they were crowned the winner of each.
Hazlet, New Jersey based iCIMS, a leading Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) provider of talent management solutions, and Woodbury, New York based Valiant, a premier provider of comprehensive workforce management solutions, have announced today a strategic partnership that will allow clients, through a seamless integration of the two platforms, to take advantage of a complete human capital management solution.
The two companies, coming together in a best-of-breed alliance, will allow clients to benefit from the full range of human capital tools the combined solutions have to offer. As the Talent Platform enables clients to streamline such talent management processes as [Applicant Tracking, Onboarding, Performance Management and Workforce Planning, Valiant’s Workforce Management solution enhances this offering with such tools as time & attendance, scheduling and payroll.
“Nobody in the human capital management space has a more powerful talent management solution than iCIMS, and this alliance puts in place another vital component of the Valiant Marketplace career portal,” said Anthony Petraco, Valiant’s President and CEO. “We are excited for the benefits this partnership brings to our mutual client base and the marketplace in general”
The successful partnership is largely attributed to the companies’ vast similarities, which includes comparable customer profiles and parallel approaches towards technology and client service levels. iCIMS and Valiant both maintain strength within the mid-market and are positioned as leading providers for small and medium sized businesses. Additionally, the companies share a similar approach towards technology, delivering the software-as-a-service on a single platform, as opposed to offering multiple, disparate modules or databases that can be cumbersome and costly. Furthermore, iCIMS and Valiant share a strong commitment to providing customers with an unparalleled customer experience and are dedicated to ensuring continued client satisfaction with both the software and support offerings.
“Valiant and iCIMS share similar philosophies as they pertain to the needs of HR technology buyers,” said iCIMS’ CEO and President Colin Day. “The service delivered to customers in many ways is as important as the technology, and with Valiant we have found a great ally that has been able to deliver on both levels.”
