SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite: Improving Business Results through People
Today’s rapidly and continuously changing business environment demands greater agility than ever and the ability to quickly develop new strategies as circumstances evolve. But, it’s also critical to be able to execute those strategies rapidly and effectively.
A Harvard Business Review study1 revealed that almost 40% of the company’s strategy is diluted due to poor execution. It’s no wonder that a Conference Board survey of 180 CEOs showed that execution related issues were among the top three concerns.
It’s the people inside the company that execute the strategies, so companies that want to set-up for success know they need a business solution to optimize their workforce for today and prepare it for tomorrow.
SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite is that solution. SAP SuccessFactors improves executive insight and decision-making while ensuring you have the right people with the right skills doing the right work.

SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central
The HR function is moving beyond automating processes, reducing costs, and compliance — to drive people decisions that grow the business. However, the majority of today’s HRIS solutions serve merely as filing cabinets for record keeping with no business impact. Silo’d from talent, they prevent companies from making workforce decisions based on a 360-degree view of the employee. They also feature primitive analytics that provide minimal insights into the workforce and no support for workforce planning. Another shift is the employee demographic. More technology-savvy people — those who have grown up using collaborative, user-friendly, and graphic technology — are now entering the workforce. However, today’s Core HR systems are made for super-users and specialists. Using these systems requires extensive training and results in low adoption. Finally, current on-premise Core HR solutions are expensive to implement and maintain, deliver little innovation, and are difficult to upgrade.
A New Approach to Core HR — SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central is the industry’s only Core HR solution that not only provides comprehensive, integrated Core HR capabilities — it is specifically designed for business execution.
Through seamless integration with talent, SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central provides the ability to make more impactful workforce decisions.

Onboarding: Laying the Foundation for Employee Success
Ever wonder why employees quit after less than a year? Or why some new hires come up to speed faster than others? Onboarding is a critical part of a good talent management strategy, but it is often overlooked or poorly handled. As a result, onboarding often doesn’t have the positive impact that it could. Piles of paperwork, missed details, and busy managers make a poor first impression on the new employees and increase ramp time. More than 80 percent of new employees decide whether or not to stay with a company within the first six months of being hired, and 1 in 4 do leave in the first year. An unorganized or incomplete onboarding process can cause those employees to rethink their decision to join the company just when they should be the most enthusiastic.
SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding Has a Comprehensive Approach That Can Help
SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding, part of the SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite, takes a fresh approach to onboarding. Through a process that is easy, automatic, and personal, SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding improves first-year retention and reduces ramp time by focusing on three key areas:
- Guiding HR, the hiring manager, and the new hire through all the steps of onboarding to create a consistent and complete process every time
- Connecting new hires with the right people and relevant content even before their first day, creating early engagement and ultimately improving retention
- Developing new hires quickly by seamlessly connecting onboarding to other talent processes— such as recruiting, goal setting, and learning—and turning new hires into productive employees in record time.
Of all the people involved in the onboarding process, the hiring manager has the greatest impact on new hires. Yet, hiring managers often are the least engaged. They may think onboarding is HR’s job or they may just be too busy. Either way, the process will automatically go better when specific guidance for hiring managers makes bringing a new employee onboard practically foolproof.
With SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding, step-by-step wizards walk hiring managers through the process of how to prepare for the new hire, and an easy-to-use dashboard makes it simple to track progress along the way. Corporate and legal compliance improves because all the paperwork and steps are built right into the process, so there is no question about which forms were e-signed and where they landed.
Starting a new job always creates some level of anxiety for the new hire—even seasoned executives! The first week is about learning the lay of the land— the physical land and the cultural land. SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding provides tools that help new hires connect and feel comfortable even before the first day on the job.
If you can help them build connections with their team and their co-workers before they start, employee engagement kicks in early and ramp time becomes shorter. With SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding, not only can new hires complete most of the paperwork before they start, but they also can virtually meet their team and a handpicked group of co-workers and introduce themselves. Once new hires start, immediate access to the employee network gives them the ability to start learning at their own pace and to pick up conversations and content that are relevant to their roles. Getting new hires engaged with people and content early means they are more likely to stay with the company longer.
Onboarding should never be an isolated process. If your team has set goals for the year, then why not share those goals with new team members immediately? With SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding hiring managers can also define short term objectives the new hire can tackle right away. Since your learning process already delivers training according to role—why not apply that intelligence immediately to new hires as part of their onboarding?
As a part of SAP SuccessFactors HCM suite, Onboarding can work independently, or as a unified part of your talent management strategy.
Many studies have connected an improvement in the onboarding process to business results, including improved first-year retention, faster time to productivity and increases in profit growth and revenue per employee. If you’re looking for a new way to improve the bottom line this year, check out our latest innovation: SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding!
SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding uniquely combines the critical yet tactical aspects of onboarding (compliance and orientation) with the more strategic aspects (socialization and connection to the other talent processes) to create an end-to-end process that drives better business results.
SAP SuccessFactors Learning
Organizations that embrace learning as a culture significantly outperform their competition. Learning is essential to any organization’s success because it improves business results, boosts productivity, and increases organizational competitiveness. SAP SuccessFactors Learning helps learning professionals improve employees’ skills, develop leaders, reduce compliance risk, and better enable external audiences. As the recognized leader in learning and talent management solutions, SAP SuccessFactors Learning also can be leveraged as a unified, key part of SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite.
Improve Organizational Agility, Innovation, and Business Outcomes

SAP SuccessFactors Performance & Goals
Effectively managing employee performance has never been more critical. Your organization faces fierce competition and limited budgets, and must execute with razor-sharp focus or be left behind. To succeed, you need a workforce that clearly understands the strategic business objectives and can quickly adjust course as business needs evolve. SAP SuccessFactors Performance & Goals helps your organization ensure strategy and goal alignment, continuously improve workforce performance, and accurately evaluate and recognize top talent.

Employee compensation is one of the largest investments for most companies, and making sure those dollars have an impact on the bottom line is essential.
The SAP SuccessFactors Compensation solution transforms workforce compensation into a strategic component of your overall talent strategy.

SAP SuccessFactors Mobile
In today’s business environment, high employee engagement has a positive impact on business performance: it increases profitability, productivity and safety, and it decreases turnover and absenteeism. But average employees often find engaging with HR through a desktop solution: it’s not their primary business tool, they are usually overwhelmed by all the options available and they often forget how the system works. Companies that take advantage of the immediacy and ubiquity of mobility can bridge this critical engagement gap and, as a result, enjoy a significant competitive advantage.
