Project Brief
Solari Crisis & Human Services is an award-winning, non-profit organization dedicated to helping individuals experiencing crisis situations. Solari has recently undergone significant growth and expects to secure additional state contracts, enabling them to serve a wider range of communities.
Solari and Compass365 collaborated to modernize Solari’s HR onboarding process, leveraging Microsoft Power Platform to build a comprehensive HR onboarding and offboarding solution.
The Challenge
Solari’s previous onboarding/offboarding process was manual and relied on a SharePoint form and email task lists. This approach was cumbersome and required substantial follow-up to ensure task completion. Solari has grown from around 200 employees in 2020 to a current workforce of over 800 in 2024. Additionally, the organization frequently hires for project-specific needs, adding surges in onboarding and offboarding demands. With Solari’s rapid growth, managing the onboarding and offboarding process became even more complex.
The Solution
Compass365 and Solari developed “PEOPLink,” a Power App solution designed to streamline onboarding and offboarding processes.
The PEOPLink app is user-friendly, with minimal training needed. This eased the adoption across departments and contributed to high satisfaction rates. It has greatly improved visibility and tracking for all departments involved in the onboarding/offboarding process and has provided centralized access for HR and IT to manage and monitor progress across touchpoints.
Supporting Growth with Microsoft Power Apps
The PEOPLink app provided a user-friendly, efficient solution to support Solari’s HR needs and enabled the organization to focus on their mission of delivering critical crisis and human services. The strong communication and collaboration between Compass365 and Solari laid a foundation for future projects that can further enhance Solari’s capabilities as they continue to expand.
“Compass365’s communication was great. They were really responsive. This allowed us to make changes quickly.”
“The Compass team did a good job of asking us the questions that we never thought of. That helped, I believe, make the solution better.”
“Feedback from every department involved has been positive. HR appreciates the central interface to track and manage everything in one place, and the IT team is thrilled to have a single system to monitor all hardware assets, ensuring everyone knows each step and touchpoint in the process.”
