Common data model

One language for every HR system, the analytical layer prebuilt.

IntRpret's common data model (CDM) connects your HRIS and HRMS — Workday, Keka, SAP SuccessFactors and more — and unifies them into one common language: the same employee, job, organisation and event, whichever system it came from. On top sits the analytical layer, prebuilt — event-driven KPIs, features for models, dated history — so no team has to build one.

What it does

Common data model, part by part.

  • 01

    Connects every HR system

    Workday, Keka, SAP SuccessFactors and other HRIS and HRMS, through their APIs or at the data layer — several at once.

  • 02

    One common language

    A Workday worker and a Keka employee resolve to one person; a hire, a transfer or an exit means the same thing in every system, from one shared catalogue of HR event types.

  • 03

    The analytical layer, prebuilt

    No 6–18-month build, no team of specialists to hire, no warehouse project: the model, its definitions and its history are ready, at a fraction of a warehouse's cost.

  • 04

    KPIs on events and dates

    KPIs are defined on HR events and their dates — hires, exits, moves, pay changes — so they follow what actually happened, as of any date.

  • 05

    A feature catalogue

    Computed features — tenure, time in role, pay against the range midpoint and more — that root-cause analysis screens for causes; predictions use each use case's own inputs.

  • 06

    Dated history

    Pay versions, HR events and assignment timelines carry the dates they applied, so a question can be asked as of any past date.

How it works

Connect, Unify, Prebuilt layer, Use.

  1. Step 1

    Connect

    Workday, Keka, SuccessFactors — any HRIS or HRMS.

  2. Step 2

    Unify

    Each system's terms mapped to one common language.

  3. Step 3

    Prebuilt layer

    KPIs on events and dates, a feature catalogue and dated pay and events, ready.

  4. Step 4

    Use

    Every suite reads the same model.

Questions it answers, in your words.

  • “How many people joined and left each month this year, by exit reason?”
  • “How has average pay moved for each job since last year?”
