Sigla Group's agile processes are designed to use workflows that

propel your corporate performance into the stratosphere.

Advisory
Global HR, Payroll & Compliance Advisory
As rapid globalization continues to be the norm, many companies still struggle with effective international HR
and payroll management. Local governments are tightening the noose via increased legislation, resulting in
greater worries on the part of employers. How will the lack of a formal governance process affect their "internal
brand" amongst employees and how will a limited ability keep up with complex regulatory changes distract from
their core focus and affect their brand image in the marketplace?

Process Review and Assessments

Our experienced team conducts a thorough baseline assessment of all current state processes and supporting
infrastructure. We highlight process strengths, identify areas of potential vulnerability, and architect and
recommend best practice scenarios to better align with future state objectives. In short, we help companies
understand where they are, where theyre vulnerable, and how to proceed.
Subsequent the analysis, we provide a full report on overall processes effectiveness, identifying inefficient
and/or conflicting practices, pinpointing areas of risks, establishing a full roster of personnel executing critical
transactions, mapping core technologies and platforms, and quantifying the true cost of the process. We then
provide alternative processes, leveraging best practices more closely aligned with the objectives of the business.
Processes are fully mapped and all costs quantified in order to display areas of efficiency gains and cost savings.
We also offer an optional technology platform that can be leveraged in the future to measure ongoing
effectiveness.

Strategic Alignment
We work closely with the client to thoroughly evaluate their current technology strategy and infrastructure,
detailing existing systems, data structures, and governance processes. We highlight key functional or talent
gaps, evaluate reporting practices and formats for wasteful redundancies and conflicts, document current
software versions, and communicate metrics to outline solutions utilization. Lastly, a final report is produced,
containing future state recommendations to provide a baseline in streamlining processes, improving systems
and talent utilization, and generating a more production flow of relevant and timely information.

International Merger, Acquisition, and Joint Venture Activities

Sale of Business: Getting the best price is frequently the primary consideration, although of increasing
importance are issues such as strategic fit, long term growth and sustained employment.
Acquisition: Corporate acquisitions are time consuming and therefore effective planning is the key to
success. If the target business has not been identified, access to an effective database and local
knowledge is important.
Joint Ventures: Completing an agreement with a foreign JV partner demands knowledge of local laws and
customs as well as verification of the integrity and substance of potential partners. Sigla's global network
can provide these services around the world.
