Building a Scalable HR Foundation for a Global Manufacturing Giant
PROJECT INFORMATION
The client is a global auto parts manufacturer with annual revenue of $5.6 billion and a workforce of 27,000 employees. Operating across North America, Europe, and Asia, the company is a key player in the automotive manufacturing sector, supporting diverse markets with cutting-edge solutions and products.
CHALLENGES
The client faced significant challenges in their HR operations, stemming from fragmented systems and inefficiencies:
- Disparate Systems: HR processes were managed through multiple legacy systems, resulting in inconsistent practices and inefficiencies.
- Operational Complexity: Complex and extensive business rules across geographies posed challenges to standardizing operations.
- Limited Analytics: The existing systems did not support robust workforce intelligence or analytics.
- Customization Costs: Avoiding costly customizations while delivering advanced functionalities was a top priority.
Integration Needs: Ensuring secure, seamless integration between internal and external systems was critical.
