Our Company Philosophy

The foundation of any good business partnership is trust. If you cannot trust your partner then there is no basis for a relationship. Fundamentally, the relationship is the underpinning of all business transactions.  When you understand this, you quickly realize how important it is to select someone you trust. In order to grow a successful business you must find like minded people to work with and to do business with. There is no shortage of business so be picky about who you chose to become involved in.
  Testimonials
Union Pacific Railroad I just wanted to drop a quick note to let you know how happy I was to have Lyle as a consultant. Lyle helped us achieve our deadline with ease. I cannot tell you how nice it was by the 3rd module to have a consultant that was very knowledgeable about the module (configuration, system, and user standpoint) and was able to understand our process and constraints and suggest "work-arounds". He followed through with all requests in a timely manner. He was also our champion in pushing through fixes or basic enhancements that needed to be done. Finally, I was extremely impressed that he followed up with us after our first Compensation process was complete to address a couple of minor issues that we needed for the next cycle. We felt assured in our final product as he played a very active role in design and testing. If we had to 'do-it-all-over', we would request Lyle as our consultant for all modules. He definitely provided the level of service we needed and expected to be successful. Jennifer Sedlacek

Wind River Systems It was a pleasure working with Aasonn to implement our Success Factors compensation module. Their consultants are very knowledgeable and ensured that the project adhered to the schedule. They are receptive of changing requirements and made every effort to accommodate our requests. Communications with them is excellent; they are always available by phone or email to answer any questions that arise. Overall, the experience was positive, we are elated with our final product configuration. Greg Barela
Manager, HRIS
Hexcel Corporation Our consultant kept us on schedule and took the time to understand our culture and our needs. We are a global business and needed a product that worked well in numerous languages and reflected the core values of the company. Our consultant was able to work with HR leaders in five different countries to develop the right 360 tool to meet our specific needs, as well as working to roll out the 360 with web-based training.
