In a sector as demanding and fast-paced as the audiovisual industry, redesigning a Payroll & Time and Attendance HRIS is not just a simple tool change. It is a comprehensive transformation, combining regulatory challenges, human complexity, a diversity of employment statuses, and the imperative of service continuity. <\/p>\n\n
This is the challenge taken on by France M\u00e9dias Monde (FMM)<\/strong> \u2013 the parent company of France 24, RFI and MCD \u2013 with more than 1,800 employees worldwide, including many non-permanent staff (freelancers, intermittent workers, correspondents, etc.).<\/p>\n\n Christelle Mitchell<\/strong>, HRIS & Management Information Systems Manager at FMM, looks back on this experience alongside Alth\u00e9a\u2019s teams.<\/p>\n\n The end of maintenance for the HR Access version used by FMM, scheduled for late 2024, required a rapid shift. The initial assessment was clear: <\/p>\n\n Alth\u00e9a\u2019s involvement began with an in-depth audit, followed by the drafting of a white paper consolidating all practices and management rules. Objective: to lay the foundations for a robust, structured and sustainable new HRIS. <\/p>\n\n In parallel, a tender process led to the selection of the Pl\u00e9iades<\/strong> solution from Sopra HR Software, for several reasons including its ability to address the specificities of the media sector and the diversity of the populations managed.<\/p>\n\n Moving from a traditional way of working to a digital tool requires significant adjustments. The digitisation of processes marked a real turning point for FMM, modernising HR practices and establishing new digital habits. It helped streamline approval workflows, secure exchanges, and involve operational teams more in day-to-day management. <\/p>\n\n This change required ongoing change management to bring teams on board and remove obstacles. One of the major challenges was adopting the new processes and the new distribution of associated tasks. <\/p>\n\n Fatima-Azzahra Lemzaoui<\/strong>, Director at Alth\u00e9a<\/strong> and project lead, managed the assignment with commitment, method and close support. \u201cWe had five priority objectives: meet business needs, improve payroll reliability, secure processes, ensure statutory reporting, and create a sustainable solution.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n She continues: \u201cThe relationship of trust built with Christelle Mitchell and her teams was decisive. We worked closely together to meet the challenges and adapt processes to FMM\u2019s specificities. The involvement of the Alth\u00e9a and FMM teams was remarkable. Employees showed exceptional commitment to meet the ambitious deadlines set by the project.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n Alongside strategic steering, Fatima-Azzahra also served as interim HRIS Manager, demonstrating Alth\u00e9a\u2019s integration into the day-to-day work of FMM\u2019s teams and a partnership built on reliability.<\/p>\n\n Oc\u00e9ane Cambrone<\/strong>, Senior Manager at Alth\u00e9a<\/strong> dedicated to the project, played a key role in managing non-permanent profiles: \u201cI was fortunate to work on a full-scope assignment, from requirements gathering to change management. It enabled me to develop a 360\u00b0 view and build a real relationship of trust with the FMM teams.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n She worked on formalising processes, adapting Pl\u00e9iades to the specificities of freelancers\/intermittent workers, and supporting users. Her involvement enabled smoother adoption of the tool. <\/p>\n\n The project has now entered an implementation phase, enabling FMM to fully leverage the features of the Pl\u00e9iades tool and unlock its full potential.<\/p>\n\n Christelle Mitchell<\/strong> concludes: \u201cWe still have steps to climb, but thanks to Alth\u00e9a\u2019s expertise and the teams\u2019 commitment, we are moving in the right direction.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n At Alth\u00e9a, we are proud to support private and public organisations such as France M\u00e9dias Monde in their HR & HRIS transformation projects. <\/p>\n\n *These assignments reinforce our belief that a project\u2019s success rests on a fundamental three-part foundation: expertise, on-the-ground commitment, and the human relationship.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In a sector as demanding and fast-paced as the audiovisual industry, redesigning a Payroll & Time and Attendance HRIS is not just a simple tool change.
