SAP® Model Company service for Human Resources to reduce
the time to deploy SAP SuccessFactors® solutions at its
financial services division. In just 14 weeks, Arvato Financial
Solutions implemented manage workforce software, which includes the

organizational charts for mobile devices provided by SAP Model
Company for HR, was exactly what we needed," said Kai Burr, CHRO, Arvato Financial Solutions.
"We've been able to accelerate our digital HR transformation and
deliver the consumer-grade tools and personalized experiences our
employees and managers expect. The end-to-end capabilities of SAP
SuccessFactors solutions have enabled us to truly simplify and

reporting capabilities. Using the service, it developed manage
workforce software, which consists of SAP SuccessFactors Employee
Central, to drive accelerated time to value and rapid user
adoption. The software provides Arvato with a next-generation core
HR software system that improves the employee experience while
helping HR establish controls and integrate business insights.
