I would suggest bringing in HR1 into a few meetings during the discovery phase, as they bring valuable experience from their various client types and processes, which would allow them to ask questions the implementation team may not be thinking about. Ultimately, you know your processes best, but it takes a while to get used to the specific verbiage of the software and to “speak the language,” so HR1’s would lend valuable support.
Implementation is a full-time job. It is a very involved and time consuming process, so having the support of a team that is familiar with the new and legacy systems is a huge plus especially when it comes to data transfer from one to the other.

We are probably 2/3 of the way through the project. I think we minimized the amount of work that would be required to get all of our data into the new system. We are adding data to the new system, validating the data, learning a new workflow all at the same time.

What “Lessons Learned” would you provide to others implementing with this partner / software? What else would you tell us about your project experience?
Speak to as many colleagues in other organizations as possible of the same size to receive feedback on their experience with the systems and which modules are more/less valuable. Also, train train train as it’s the most important aspect of implementing a new software program.

When working with UKG understand that they will only give you a minimum amount of information. You really need a consultant that understands the software and knows what questions to ask. Otherwise you are going to be spending a lot more money to have UKG do something that could have been done the first time.

Beyond the Review: HR1Systems’ Total Luxury Care #TLC Customer Service Philosophy
HR1Systems is more than just a consulting firm; it’s a full-service implementation and optimization partner for HRIS systems, payroll processing, and managed services. Born out of a passion for science and data analytics and an extraordinary career journey, it stands as a testament to Alexander-Ali Dalipi’s vision for revolutionizing the HR tech landscape.
In a recent discussion, Alexander-Ali Dalipi, Founder & CEO of HR1Systems, provides valuable insights into the qualities that position HR1Systems as a premier partner of UKG.
Here are some key takeaways from our conversation:
HR1Systems’ Approach to Service
While data extraction, migration, and transformation from legacy systems are common challenges faced by HR1Systems’ customers, the firm distinguishes itself by diving deeper into best practice strategic approaches and business intelligence utilization, maximizing the benefits of partner company’s analytical tools, such as, UKG’s powerful predictive analytics and machine learning algorithms.
Dalipi explains that his clients value the services that HR1Systems bring to them: extended HR team-members that are all academically trained as data analysts, fast resolution and response time, and the emotional intelligence support reinforcing their client’s confidence that the HRIS and Payroll platform is being designed to their specifications. This is the HR1System’s philosophy and company vision: to bring excellence through data analytics, optimization & automation, and customer service throughout their entire project.
“We’re not just about implementation, we’re not just about managed services. We are about partnering up with our customers and becoming a true extended HR department for them.” – Alexander-Ali Dalipi
By taking this kind of personalized approach, and tailoring strategies to meet each client’s unique needs, HR1Systems goes beyond conventional consulting.
Building Customers for Life
At HR1Systems, the focus is on building long lasting relationships rather than simply pushing projects forward. Education lies at the core of HR1Systems’ philosophy and customer service brand, a philosophy that is a foundational pillar of UKG.
“When you know how to do something, you feel 10x more comfortable, and the resistance to change diminishes.” – Alexander-Ali Dalipi
This belief underpins HR1Systems’ approach to continuous learning. CEO Alexander-Ali Dalipi’s pursuit of a Doctorate of Education (Ed.D) in Organizational Leadership, Development and Change program at Lehman College, reflects the company’s dedication to remaining at the forefront of industry advancements.
What is TLC?
At HR1Systems, the team has embraced the concept of TLC, traditionally understood as “tender love and care.” Rather than using overused catch phrases like “white-glove” or “luxury service,” they have redefined TLC as “Total Luxury Care,” reflecting their commitment to HR1Systems’ brand values.
“Instead of using white-glove service or luxury service, we embrace TLC as Total Luxury Care.” – Alexander-Ali Dalipi
Dalipi explains that for HR1Systems, TLC encompasses delivering quality service, prioritizing customer satisfaction, and fostering steadfast responsiveness. Additionally, it entails personally training his team to uphold a consistent standard of excellence.
Advice to UKG Customers Embarking on a New UKG Project
For clients embarking on new UKG projects, Dalipi advises starting “simply with the basics,” focusing on thoroughly learning the platform from a wholistic framework. This translates to cultivating relationships through education and preparation. Gaining a comprehensive understanding of the platform’s functionality and setup can empower clients both emotionally and intellectually, ensuring they are well-prepared to begin an implementation.
Dalipi believes that Human Resources is as much about resources for humans, as it is about human emotional intelligence. “When customers cultivate trusting connections with our analysts, then that positive emotional connection becomes unconsciously associated to their UKG software.” To quote UKG: Partners for Life.
As the HR tech landscape evolves, HR1Systems remains committed to continuous learning and evolving, ensuring that they (and their customers) are equipped to navigate future data and technological challenges. “The more we learn, the better equipped we are to navigate the challenges of tomorrow,” Dalipi concludes.
