IKM and Nexios IT announce partnership

IKM, a provider of web-based employee and candidate knowledge measurement solutions and services, and Nexios IT, a division of Nexios Consulting Group NV that specialises in services for Information and Communication Technology (ICT), today announced a partnership agreement that provides Nexios IT the exclusive distributorship of IKM’s solutions across Belgium and Holland.

Used for pre-hire testing, pre-training and post-training testing and evaluation, skill audits, project resource planning, benchmarking, certification and overall Human Capital Management optimisation, Nexios IT will introduce IKM’s assessments to its client base to improve their bottom line.

As an essential part of our client’s success and growth, Nexios IT will introduce IKM’s assessments to assist in the realisation of their IT Projects. Through understanding strengths and weaknesses of existing and potential employees, our clients will be able to make better people decisions and avoid costly errors, said Bart Denoodt, Director, Nexios IT.

Unlike other solutions, IKM’s unique assessment methodology provides the greatest amount of feedback of a candidate’s or employee’s exact strengths and weaknesses in the shortest possible time. It is this level of feedback that provides the true insight to facilitate better decision-making.

Nexios IT prides itself on delivering quality and value-add solutions to its clients. Using IKM’s assessments will enable us to respond to the growing number of clients that need to reduce hiring errors, shorten hiring cycles, improve training ROI, maximise project team potential or eliminate IT project risk, said Bart Rutten, Director, Nexios IT.

IKM will train 5 of Nexios IT’s professionals to sell, administer, support and rollout an effective enterprise knowledge measurement solution. It is expected formal client information sessions will begin in June 2006, where Nexios IT’s clients such as Tele Atlas, Telindus, and Fujitsu-Siemens will be introduced to its new offering.

This partnership allows IKM to respond to the growing demand of our assessments across Europe. With IKM TeckChekTM we are particularly strong in IT assessments, offering tremendous synergy for the two companies. We look forward to supporting Nexios IT as they work with their clients to improve Human Capital Management initiatives, said Dr Marie-Paule Donsimoni, CEO, IKM.
