World’s first measurable and quantitative skills based “SaaS” solution

NEW YORK, May 20/PR Newswire/ – WingSpread (http://www.wingspreadco.com) is making generally available today WingSpread 1.1, the world’s first measurable and quantitative “SaaS” technology solution for addressing the talent alignment challenge.

In today’s environment, having the right talent is critical for companies to effectively compete and succeed. At the same time, job seekers are finding a more competitive and demanding environment in the job market. WingSpread provides the only solution that addresses both challenges by definitively aligning individuals and organizations through the mapping of skills.

“Many companies have an abundance of talent, but they lack the tools to precisely align this talent with corporate objectives,” said Wayne Reagan, chief executive officer, WingSpread. “Through WingSpread, we create an indelible link between workers and corporate goals through the commonality of skills. This allows companies to realize the full potential of their human assets.”

Mr. Reagan continues, “At the same time, we are facing the greatest dislocation of human capital in recent history. WingSpread helps job seekers to understand their skills so as to better focus their searches on where they are needed.”

“Most human capital management technologies tend to focus solely on corporate functions or individual job seeker needs,” adds Mike Yinger, President, WingSpread. “We bring these together seamlessly through WingSpread using skills. Because skills are measurable and quantitative, we can map people to positions and quickly determine the best qualified candidates through our Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) solution.”

In the first release, WingSpread supports core human resources functions of recruitment, development, performance management, and career guidance. WingSpread also supports strategic functions of workforce planning, business level assessments, corporate restructuring and mergers and acquisitions to provide clarity in the management of human capital.
