The Vlaamse Gemeenschapscommissie (VGC - Flemish Community Commission) is the administrative body representing the Flemish Community in the bilingual Brussels-Capital Region, focusing on culture, education, well-being, and health. It manages Dutch-language services and initiatives, improving quality of life for Dutch-speaking residents, and functions as a local authority.
As part of its HR transformation, VGC partnered with ACT-ON BELGIUM to implement a robust LMS and EPM solution.
The objective: establish clear HR workflows, strengthen governance, and support teams in managing talent across onboarding, performance reviews, promotions, and improvement plans.
THE NEED: STRUCTURING HR PROCESSES AND GOVERNANCE
As its HR needs evolved, VGC identified several key challenges requiring expert support:
- Structuring HR processes: onboarding, annual reviews, promotions, and performance improvement plans (PIP)
- Implementing formalized workflows to secure each step of the process
- Strengthening project governance with clear validations and regular checkpoints
- Managing a complex organization with advanced security roles and indirect reporting lines
OUR RESPONSE: IMPLEMENTING A STRUCTURED LMS & EPM SOLUTION
To address these challenges, ACT-ON BELGIUM teams implemented a combined LMS (Learning Management System) and EPM (Enterprise Performance Management) solution, focused on process clarity and governance.
Key actions included:
- Implementing LMS and EPM modules to cover all HR needs
- Configuring an advanced security model tailored to the organization (indirect managers, divisions, positions)
- Designing structured EPM workflows for onboarding, internal mobility, annual reviews, and PIP processes
- Leading iterative testing and validation cycles with client teams
- Establishing strong project governance through workshops, documentation, and formal alignment meetings
CLIENT BENEFITS: CLEAR, SCALABLE, AND SUSTAINABLE HR PROCESSES
With this approach, VGC now benefits from a structured and efficient HR framework:
- Harmonized HR processes, improving employee lifecycle management (onboarding, evaluation, career development)
- Strengthened governance with clear decision-making, formal validations, and improved traceability & client closely involved throughout the project
- A flexible security model adapted to a complex organizational structure
- Enhanced collaboration between project stakeholders and operational teams
- Long-term sustainability through comprehensive documentation and training
