OMESTI Group and Microimage to bring cuttingedge HCM Solutions to Asia

Malaysia-based OMESTI Group, part of IT conglomerate Formis Resources Berhad, has formed a strategic partnership with Sri Lanka’s Microimage to bring leading-edge Human Capital Management (HCM) solutions to Asian markets.

Known as MIHCM (Microimage HCM) Asia, the new venture will use Kuala Lumpur as a launch pad to deliver proprietary HCM solutions to South East Asia and beyond, leveraging on the regional networks of the OMESTI Group, a joint statement by the companies said last week.

Dato’ Larry Gan of OMESTI Group, said, “Microimage has an established track record for developing and implementing industry-leading HR solutions that help organisations manage all aspects of their human capital. In setting up this new venture, we are providing access to this tech- nology to companies in emerging markets, technology that will help them streamline their people management systems and establish HR as the game changing enterprise-wide function.”

Harsha Purasinghe, Chairman and CEO of Microimage, said, “We are delighted to enter into this partnership with the OMESTI Group. There is tremendous potential to deliver a range of innovative HR solutions customised for local markets. This new venture will utilise the financial investments and business links of the OMESTI Group to fuel our growth in Asian markets.”

Under the partnership, Microimage will transfer exclusive marketing rights for a suite of HCM Solutions to MIHCM Asia, which will appoint a network of distributors, partners and resellers to tap the market in various territories.
