Connecting an HR platform to a corporate travel system

Bespoke middleware that retrieved and transformed HR information for a corporate travel system, reducing manual bridging between the two.

Selected experience from a project delivered before Process Wranglers was founded. The organisation is not named and was not a Process Wranglers client.

The process, marked up

Before

  1. HR platform holds the information
  2. People bridge the gap manually (pain point)
  3. Travel system

After

  1. HR platform
  2. Middleware calls OAuth 2.0-authenticated APIs (part of the solution)
  3. Information transformed for the travel system (part of the solution)
  4. Travel system

What was happening

A corporate travel system needed information that was held in an HR platform.

What needed to change

A dependable way to get the right information from one system to the other without people re-keying it.

What was done

Mike was involved in designing and building the middleware.

Why that approach

Purpose-built middleware could retrieve exactly the information needed and reshape it into the form the travel system expected.

The outcome

Less manual bridging between the HR and travel systems.
