Core Hybrid in a Global Setting case study cover

Overview

The client is a leading manufacturer of specialty graphite and composite materials used in industries shaping the future, including automotive, aerospace, renewable energy, semiconductors, LEDs, and lithium-ion battery production. The company also develops innovative solutions for a wide range of chemical and industrial applications worldwide.

  • Industry: Chemicals
  • Services: SAP SuccessFactors Integration, SAP ERP HCM Integration, INTEGRTR Platform, Data Migration

Challenge

The client's HR landscape included two SAP ERP HCM systems supporting German and US payroll operations. One of these systems also served as the central repository for core employee master data across all global legal entities.

While the organization wanted to modernize its HR processes with SAP SuccessFactors, payroll operations were required to remain on-premise. The challenge was to establish a global cloud HR solution without increasing interface complexity.

Solution

INTEGRTR implemented a Core Hybrid architecture in which SAP ERP HCM remained the central HR master data distribution system while SAP SuccessFactors became the global system of engagement.

This approach allowed the client to:

  • Retain on-premise payroll operations in Germany and the United States
  • Minimize integration complexity across the global HR landscape
  • Maintain SAP ERP HCM as the central employee master data hub
  • Establish a single, streamlined integration between SAP SuccessFactors and the central SAP system
  • Create a scalable foundation for future HR transformation initiatives
