The Passionate Founder of BizMerlin
Dr. Amrinder Arora, Co-founder, and CEO of BizMerlin has spent over a decade researching and applying data analytics and artificial intelligence for various commercial and government entities. Amrinder decided to focus on this industry only after observing several inefficiencies in the human capital management and resource management processes. He has earned a Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from George Washington University and completed his Bachelors in Computer Science from IIT Delhi. Now, he is a professor in the Department of Computer Science at George Washington University, he is also one of the leading experts in data analytics in the world and the author of a book named “Analysis and Design of Algorithms.” Till date, Amrinder has received numerous excellency awards from Food and Drug Administration, Association for Computing Machinery, George Washington University, and Bowie State University. Back in 2016, Amrinder was recognized as one of 30 Most Influential Young Entrepreneurs.
Tackling the Challenges
BizMerlin believes that the tools of yesterday are clearly misfit for today, and traditional HR tools are nothing but glorified and beautified spreadsheets data in, data out artifacts. These tools make it easy for people to collect and organize data, however, at the end, the user gets exactly what he/she had stored and nothing more. Smart tools need to accomplish more than all that. According to the organization, an HCM solution cannot be called “modern” if it fails to give the needed insights that the user never knew were possible. Adding to these challenges, is the formidable concern about data security. Companies now trust their critical data to outside entities that need to have appropriate controls in place. BizMerlin is a leading participant in SOC and SSAE compliance programs in North America and Europe, and also regional initiatives in global markets, which include Latin America and Africa – where it is a leading provider.
When AI is the Key Component
Since the inception of BizMerlin, Artificial Intelligence has been a key component and it manifests in various ways – whether it is using the flagship ATS that gives smart recommendations about candidates, or the amazingly simple Company Wall of Fame, the strategic Resource Forecasting and Optimization solution, or the irreplaceable Expertise Evolution Pathways; BizMerlin is fundamentally different from other HR organizations and companies. “We observed that despite immense technological development, most HR software were simply pretty address books, and companies were still running their strategic planning in Excel or Google sheets.” says Dr. Arora. After observing various inefficiencies, the BizMerlin team came together in order to develop solutions that can take the human capital management a notch higher. According to the organization, BizMerlin is not just a ‘Data In Data Out’ tool – it is an AI-powered turbo charged machine that transforms the entire organization.

Future Roadmap
According to BizMerlin, human capital management is changing rapidly, thanks to Artificial Intelligence. Nowadays, it’s not about hiring a great employee, or making sure they are onboarded correctly, or making sure they have the right objectives, rather it is about the ability to do all those things, and in a landscape where work assignments are short-lived and dynamic, and the strategic definition of talent and success is itself evolving. Modern HCM, such as BizMerlin, are all about using the true power of artificial intelligence and predictive analytics both in tactical and in strategic senses while the “traditional” HR has pretty much gone the way of the telegram. Today’s organizations have everyone from Millennials to Baby Boomers working for them – either as full-time employees or contractors and consultants. These different groups have different motivations, different compensation expectations, and even different job security and reason to be engaged – the days when one spends 10, 15 or 20 years at the same company are virtually unrecognizable now.
