As today’s tech-driven world becomes increasingly digital and more competitive, many Human Resources departments from large corporations can find it challenging or even near-impossible to effectively oversee their company’s recruitment and introduction process of new employees to their workforce. While HR departments from small businesses might have an easier time managing routine HR processes such as the interviewing and training of new employees, the same simply cannot be said regarding large corporations with thousands of employees. Enter VII INNOVATIONS, who recently unveiled its flagship product BULMA Solution at CES 24, a revolutionary AI-enabled HR management tool comprised of five applications intended to respond to any HR challenge, all of them embedded in V’Ger, a physical real Intelligent Human Resources Assistant (IHRA) robot that streamlines routine HR processes, including recruitment, onboarding, training, and employee support, thus enhancing the HR world for both the company and employees.
WHO IS VII INNOVATIONS?
VII INNOVATIONS is a 10-year old company started in 2014 who’s focused on crafting tomorrow’s technological innovations by anticipating and analyzing current challenges for Human Resources Managers and Directors. VII INNOVATIONS is also a subsidiary of GROUP VII ORIGIN, an 11-year old IT company founded in 2013 and based in Paris, France that specializes in providing IT Services and IT Consulting to other tech companies worldwide.
VII INNOVATIONS recently unveiled its revolutionary AI-enabled HR management tool BULMA Solution at CES 2024, which aims to help create a more balanced, more productive and more fulfilling work environment within today’s tech companies.
More specifically, BULMA Solution aims to meet the digitalization needs of Human Resources departments and allow specialists in this profession to focus on tasks with greater added value. Essentially, it allows HR workers to determine and establish the digital value of each and every natural and legal employee candidate in real time, thus facilitating the assessment between a company’s recruiting manager and their new employees, which consequently helps to increase everyday performance in businesses.
During CES 2024, we had the chance to interview VII INNOVATIONS’ Artistic Manager, Nandinee Domah, who mentioned that: “VII INNOVATIONS is looking forward for its flagship product BULMA Solution to be the first system of quotation for legal entities as well as for candidates and individuals.”
Nandinee explained how BULMA Solution can help Human Resources departments from large corporations to more easily manage different HR processes on a day-to-day basis, saying that: “BULMA Solution was designed for major players in the French and global economy with the aim of promoting the development of human capital (i.e. a company’s employees) and the optimization of different organizations worldwide.”
Nandinee also highlighted that: “BULMA Solution and its V’Ger Intelligent Human Resources Assistant (IHRA) robot are not meant to replace HR workers, as they’re solely designed to assist HR departments in being more proactive with the hiring and management processes of their employees instead of them having to rely on the common blind-hiring process that typical occurs for job interviews within the tech industry.”
WHAT IS VII INNOVATIONS’ BULMA SOLUTION HR MANAGEMENT TOOL?
BULMA Solution is a revolutionary AI-enabled HR management tool comprised of five applications intended to respond to any HR challenge, all of them embedded in V’Ger, a physical real Intelligent Human Resources Assistant (IHRA) robot that streamlines routine HR processes, including recruitment, onboarding, training, and employee support, thus enhancing the HR world for both the company and employees.
This AI solution for HR departments features V’Ger, a physical real Intelligent Human Resources Assistant (IHRA) robot which combines five different HR management applications together, along with two HR programs. This IHRA robot relies on artificial intelligence (AI) and Big Data to help companies increase their competitiveness.
For HR workers involved in the recruitment process of new employees, this technology helps to speed up the selection process thanks to proactive assistance in profile research, validation of applications and matching. On the other hand, for the follow-up of the employees, V’Ger aids with the career planning, training and enrolling of the company for those individuals.
To put it simply, BULMA Solution is a complete and unique grading system for legal entities, candidates and individuals which is characterized by sharing, interaction, innovation and determination. Its response is a unique comprehensive rating system that enhances the social and digital capital of an enterprise and employees alike.
Here’s what BULMA Solution’s full suite has to offer HR departments:
V’GER – This is BULMA Solution’s proprietary Intelligent Human Resources Assistant (IHRA) robot, which is essentially a company’s HR Department’s trusted partner for dynamic and non-discriminatory HR management, as it offers Human Resources workers complete HR digital transformation.
Designed to work as the core of this HR management tool, BULMA Solution’s V’GER robot utilizes artificial intelligence technology which makes it capable of seeing, hearing, and speaking with employees in real time, thus facilitating communication with employees within a company and ultimately ensuring good HR management of staff, whether in person or remotely.
The robot measures approximately 1,40 meters tall, packs an Eco-friendly construction as it is 3D printed using carbon fiber composits, comes equipped with a self-propelled drive system comprised of mechanical wheels for its movement, integrates multiple smart sensors as well as a built-in microphone and speakers, and has an estimated battery life of approximately 8 hours.
Currently, the V’GER robot only exists as a prototype, as VII INNOVATIONS is still working on its development to further improve the functionality of its BULMA Solution HR management tool.
BULMA Solution’s V’GER robot also integrates a built-in screen through which its five different HR management applications can be accessed.
Here’s a rundown of BULMA Solution’s five different HR management applications, which by order, consist of the following:
V’NESS – The purpose of this application is to scan the network in order to be able to generate the e-reputation of a natural or legal person based on collected data during an interview process that’s conducted through the V’GER robot. This e-reputation value basically enables HR workers to have a better idea of who the person they’re interacting with is. An algorithm was thought out and implemented by the company’s development teams to assign a quote (e-reputation value) to the person (i.e. interviewee) sought, thus helping Human Resources professionals in their choice of selecting the ideal candidate for a particular job position. Essentially, this application makes for a valuable ally for HR workers to assess e-reputation, thus allowing for a more dynamic CV screening.
V’THOTEA – This application is a sophisticated tool that HR workers can use for assessing the technical and psychometric skills of an interviewee, allowing HR departments, through several tests, to assess the “technical” level of different candidates. It makes for a dependable asset for top skills assessment.
V’THEMIS – This is a revolutionary application of accessible right which makes employment law accessible to everyone worldwide by allowing all employees to find the correct information regarding their labor rights through HR requests that can be solicited in just one click. This application aims to solve internal problems that different employees might have within a company. More specifically, it allows for the decongestion of the flow that comes with the many HR emails that are sent on a daily basis, consequently allowing for a quick response for insured employees. All the data collected by V’THEMIS allows HR departments to effectively identify what kind of problems their employees are facing, thus allowing them to more easily find the correct solution to solve those issues before those problems escalate to more serious ones, including employee strikes, mass-quitting, etc.
V’PYTHIE – The powerful application works as the inner workings of the V’GER, and is the driving force behind the whole system. It identifies and centralizes all essential information to determine the digital value of individuals within their companies.
V’SPIEL – This application is meant to be used during the first phase of a company’s recruitment process of new employees, and is essentially used to put the candidate at ease, as it transforms the first round of interviews into an exciting recruitment social game.
Other BULMA Solution Features
BULMA SHED Smart Watch
In addition to its five HR management applications, BULMA Solution also works together with the BULMA SHED smart watch, which integrates a built-in SOS button that if pushed, triggers the watch to automatically contact your local emergency services as well as your company’s HR services.
Thanks to that, while the watch’s user is having immediate response from the emergency services, their company’s HR services will also be aware of their current situations, thus allowing them to act accordingly.
BULMA’NIMALS (Virtual Digital Assistant Animals)
Furthermore, the BULMA Solution platform also features another sub-program called BULMA’NIMALS, which allows employees to “bring” virtual pets to work within a virtual environment as a way to help reduce stress caused by different societal issues (such as those from media assets covering wars, climate change, etc.). in those workers and ultimately allow them to be more functional.
These virtual pets will basically work as a digital assistant which employees can talk to and have a conversation with, and even get help from.
