        abstract = {This study investigates the adoption, role, and impact of HR analytics in mid to large-scale IT companies, employing a descriptive and exploratory research design. Targeting 100 to 200 HR professionals and managers through purposive sampling, the research examines how HR analytics contributes to decision-making, training, and performance tracking. Findings indicate that while HR analytics is valued for enhancing organizational processes, its full potential remains underutilized due to challenges such as limited training, data quality concerns, and insufficient leadership support. Additionally, inconsistent engagement and low confidence in using HR analytics tools hinder optimal outcomes, highlighting the need for stronger collaboration between HR and other departments like Finance and Operations. The study provides insights into overcoming these barriers to maximize the strategic benefits of HR analytics in the IT sector.},
