This paper presents a system recommendation and Business Analysis & System Requirements (BA&SR) report for MTC, a consulting firm serving federal, state, and local government agencies. The report evaluates EZ-ATS applicant tracking software as a solution to replace MTC's manual, time-consuming hiring process. It covers system justification, vendor agreement terms, hardware and configuration requirements, testing approaches, employee training, data migration, and maintenance. The paper argues that EZ-ATS aligns closely with MTC's business strategy, offers a low-cost 30-day trial, and provides cloud-based, customizable features that can streamline the recruitment of skilled consultants on a global scale.
Choosing the right type of hiring software to meet business needs is a crucial step in the efficient recruitment process of any company. MTC must improve its hiring process to replace the existing manual workflow, which is both laborious and time-consuming. This paper recommends a solution that would enable MTC to reach its strategic business goals.
After reviewing the EZ-ATS brochure, the recommended solution for MTC is to acquire EZ-ATS's hiring services on a trial basis for a short period — specifically, the 30-day free trial already included in its offer. This would allow the company to test the hiring software and evaluate the features described in the brochure. The testing phase would allow MTC to scrutinize the features and specifications as promised in the catalog.
Since MTC caters to small and mid-tier businesses and serves federal, local, and state government agencies, it must align its use of hiring software with its business strategy of providing unique consulting services and proposals to customers. A faster hiring process for experienced consultants would help MTC meet market challenges by sourcing skilled professionals quickly. Serving clients efficiently is a recognized part of its business strategy (Vize, n.d.). In particular, hiring would become more efficient as MTC expands into international regions, since a pool of diversely skilled consultants would strengthen its competitive advantage.
Process improvements would be automated naturally, as the features of EZ-ATS closely align with MTC's existing workflows. The software supports the full range of hiring manager functions: candidate screening and shortlisting, sending mass emails via administrative accounts, scheduling and conducting interviews, collecting interviewer feedback, and sending final offer letters to selected candidates. These functions map directly to MTC's requirements without the need to search for alternative solutions. EZ-ATS's applicant tracking system features, combined with its smooth integration and collaboration tools, make it an apt choice — especially given the availability of a free trial that requires no upfront financial commitment.
The implementation process is as straightforward as the alignment of EZ-ATS features with MTC's business strategy and requirements. Because a free trial is recommended as the first step, the initial implementation would be free of cost. The final decision on full adoption would be based on a complete inspection and evaluation after 30 days, which is a rapid yet sufficient period to assess the software's efficiency.
During the trial period, there are no binding requirements. However, once a final implementation decision is made, the vendor requires a subscription fee chosen from a tiered pricing structure based on the number of users. The lowest-cost option is $50 per month for up to 25 system users; supporting up to 60 users per month requires $100 per month. For the time being, the recommended course of action is to proceed with the 30-day free trial to evaluate the software's fit before committing to any subscription tier.
