SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif.,
April 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/
-- SAP SE (NYSE: SAP) today announced that Doosan, the large
Korean global conglomerate, has implemented SAP® SuccessFactors®
human capital management (HCM) solutions to help simplify and
optimize its HR practices. Korea's oldest company — and one of the
major infrastructure support businesses — deployed SAP
SuccessFactors solutions to unify its HR processes, which had been
segmented from the mergers of numerous international organizations,
and to support data-driven decisions about its workforce while also
ensuring its commitment to putting people first.
"As a leader in our market, we are growing into new countries
and expanding the industry-leading products we provide to our
customers," said Seongwoo Choi, CHRO
at Doosan. "We seek constant innovation and change, and we know
investment in technology is essential for improving
competitiveness. Partnering with SAP SuccessFactors was an
important step in ensuring we provide an engaging and supportive HR
experience to all our employees around the world. Since our
formation over 100 years ago, our workforce has remained at the
heart of our business, and these cloud-based HCM solutions enable
us to continue that legacy."
With a global workforce of over 37,000, Doosan required an HCM
solution that enabled it to deliver consistent HR policies,
processes and tools across borders and languages. Furthermore, it
needed the ability to analyze data across key programs to ensure
the right business outcomes. Doosan implemented the cloud-based SAP
SuccessFactors Recruiting, Onboarding, Learning, Performance &
Goals and Compensation solutions — and integrated with the
organizational management and personnel administration (OM/PA)
components of the on-premise SAP ERP HCM solution — across regions,
industries and legal entities. As a result, Doosan can support a
unified global approach to HR, attract and retain top performers,
and provide its employees with industry-leading development and
training programs.
"We're delighted to see Doosan achieve this milestone," said
Mike Ettling, president of SAP
SuccessFactors.* "While it's exciting to announce new clients, the
real value for them comes when they are live and fully implemented,
with adoption across the business. Now Doosan can realize its
objectives in transforming HR, and its 37,000 employees across the
globe can benefit from a better experience at work and more
powerful, intuitive tools to get their jobs done."
Doosan continues its digital transformation journey and is also
currently implementing the SAP SuccessFactors Workforce Analytics
solution. It is one of the latest companies to adopt SAP
SuccessFactors solutions to put people first and help them succeed.
As more companies look to transform HR to meet the demands of an
increasingly global and digital workforce, they are embracing
leading SAP SuccessFactors solutions to help optimize HR
processes.
