Overview

Every successful HR function starts with the fundamentals. If your organisation still relies on spreadsheets for employee data, manual attendance registers, or paper-based leave forms, the Foundational stage is where your digital transformation begins.

QHRM's Seed plan gives you exactly what you need at this stage — a centralised employee database, automated attendance tracking, digital leave management, and payroll processing with local compliance built in.

At $0.75 per user per month, there is no reason to stay on spreadsheets. And when you are ready to grow, upgrading to the next maturity stage is seamless — your data, workflows, and team are already on the platform.

Key Features & Benefits

Centralised Employee Database

Replace scattered spreadsheets with a single source of truth. Store employee profiles, documents, contracts, emergency contacts, and employment history in one secure, searchable database.

Automated Attendance

Track attendance with biometric devices, GPS-based mobile check-in, or QR codes. Eliminate manual registers and buddy punching. Real-time visibility into who is present, absent, or late.

Digital Leave Management

Employees apply for leave online or via the mobile app. Managers approve with one tap. Leave balances, accruals, and carryovers are calculated automatically — no more spreadsheet formulas.

Payroll Processing

Calculate salaries, statutory deductions (EPF, SSB, CPF, ESI/PF), and generate payslips automatically. Compliant with local tax and labour laws in Myanmar, Singapore, India, Thailand, and more.

Employee Self-Service Portal

Empower employees to view payslips, check leave balances, update personal information, and download tax documents — reducing HR's administrative burden from day one.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Foundational HR maturity stage?

Foundational HR means your organisation is establishing the basic building blocks of HR — centralised employee data, time tracking, leave policies, and accurate payroll. It is the essential first step before adding performance management, recruitment, or analytics.

Is the Seed plan enough for a small company?

Yes. The Seed plan covers the four pillars every organisation needs: employee database, attendance, leave, and payroll. Most companies with under 100 employees find it covers their core requirements.

Can I upgrade later without losing data?

Absolutely. Upgrading from Seed to Growth, Bloom, or Thrive is instant and seamless. All your employee data, attendance records, and payroll history carries forward with zero migration effort.

How long does it take to set up?

Most Seed plan implementations are completed within 1-2 weeks. We help you import existing employee data, configure your attendance rules, and set up payroll calculations.

Does the Seed plan include mobile access?

Yes. All QHRM plans include full mobile access. Employees can check in via the mobile app, apply for leave, and view payslips on their phones.

What countries does payroll compliance cover?

The Seed plan includes compliance templates for Myanmar, Singapore, India, Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia. Additional countries can be configured on request.
