PORTLAND, Ore. — A possible solution to dealership quandaries when it comes to personnel decisions and business operations, Compli recently rolled out a series of new software features.

The HR and compliance management software provider indicated background checks and drug screenings, access to leading legal and accounting experts and premium regulatory advice are now available to all customers.

Company officials insist these additions mark the next step for its clients in complete employee life cycle management — from pre-hire to termination.

Compli explained its customers are now able to seamlessly order background checks and drug screenings within its platform thanks to a real-time integration with Abso, a Sterling Infosystems Co., one of the nation's largest specialists in employment screening services.

Compli emphasized that it has been integrated with Abso's Talent Edition for a number of years. Talent Edition, part of Compli Recruit, is a comprehensive recruiting and pre-hire application that can put the tools management needs to acquire, screen and assess candidates to help dealerships and other businesses streamline the entire hiring process.

Officials pointed out that now all of Compli's customers, including those that are not Talent Edition clients, can order background checks and drug screenings directly from Compli, as part of the pre-hire process or as part of ongoing regulatory compliance.

Screening results can be electronically received and automatically integrated into an employee's electronic personnel file. Compli said these results are time and date stamped, ensuring accuracy, convenience and consistency.

"Completing timely, accurate background checks and drug screenings for all employees is critical for every organization," Compli asserted.

Turning to another segment of possible dealership and business operations, the company noted Compli's e-Counsel also expanded with the integration of more professional services.

The Compli e-Counsel service offerings now include employment law, benefit administration, health care (including health care reform), workers' compensation and accounting and tax.

Compli customers can electronically submit questions through the e-Counsel platform and receive guidance within 24 hours.

Furthermore, Compli highlighted that it now provides a partner services portal for all customers. The partner services portal can facilitate the connection of customers to critical business services provided through Compli's comprehensive network of strategic service providers.

"Compli is dedicated to helping our customers realize productivity efficiencies throughout their organizations," stressed Lon Leneve, president and chief executive officer of Compli.

"Administrative tasks consume an excessive amount of time and shortcuts can lead to an elevated level of exposure to risk," Leneve continued. "By helping organizations automate routine tasks, by integrating with critical business services that all of our customers need and use, and by bringing top service providers together in one location, we help our customers realize efficiencies, optimize resources, increase their protection and enhance their profitability."
