The role of ICT (Information and Communications Technology) accelerating the overall functions of Human Resource Department in this highly competitive age acquires a new definition altogether. The competitive edge of a business in today‘s global competition with an ever-changing world economic scenario has made success for any organization highly dependent on how it attracts, recruits, motivates and retains its workforce. There is a constant need for developing workforce to attain sustainable competitive advantage. Business Intelligence Application which is a specialized software that generates Business Intelligence or ‗actionable information‘ to managerial functions finds solutions thus enabling one to improve business performance by pulling data from transaction processing systems and sometimes relating them to market related data sources.

However, the authors through this paper try to establish the convergence of Human Resource Functions with ICT and Business Intelligence which is inevitably making a positive impact on fast, transparent, convenient and cost-effective flow of HR business practices and promising the advent of a new era of HR in centuries to come.
