Deltek Talent Management
Industry-specific talent management software for professional services firms
About Deltek Talent Management
Deltek Talent Management is an enterprise-grade, cloud-based talent management platform purpose-built for project-driven professional services firms. It covers the full employee lifecycle with modular solutions for talent acquisition, onboarding, performance management, learning management, compensation planning, and succession planning. The platform is designed to address the unique workforce challenges faced by architecture, engineering, consulting, and IT services organizations. The system integrates tightly with Deltek's own ERP solutions, including Deltek Vantagepoint and Deltek Costpoint, through Unionpoint integration. This allows employee data entered in Talent Management to automatically populate in ERP systems, enabling project managers to staff projects faster using up-to-date resource data. Each module can be deployed standalone or combined, giving organizations the flexibility to adopt only the capabilities they need. Deltek Talent Management is available in two editions: Enterprise Edition for larger, global organizations and Talent Edition for mid-sized companies. The platform supports automated workflows for recruiting, electronic offer letters, approval routing, and compliance tracking, helping firms streamline HR operations while maintaining consistency and transparency across the talent pipeline.
