Thriveni Earthmovers, which supports mining and manufacturing operations in India, has selected SAP SuccessFactors to help manage its 3000-strong workforce.
The company, which has a turnover of US$200 million, has operations across India, with SAP implemented at all of its sites.
In the first phase of the project, which will be undertaken by Hyderabad-based vCentric Technologies, SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central, SuccessFactors Performance and Goals, and Recruiting solutions will be implemented.
Shri B. Prabhakaran, managing director, Thriveni Earthmovers, said, “The SAP SuccessFactors solution is in line with our vision of transforming Thriveni Earthmovers to be a pure true-blue global player in the mining space. Advancement in people management shall strengthen our workforce for the future challenges that lie ahead in our quest of going forward.”
The Employee Central module will replace HR processes which are currently managed manually using Excel spreadsheets. Moving from Thriveni’s legacy performance management system, which was typically only updated during annual appraisals, to SuccessFactors Performance and Goals will allow the company to manage employee performance at an individual level through cascading goal mapping.
“The HCM modules and thought-process of SuccessFactors being delivered as a cloud solution, gives us an integrated perspective of our human capital requirements such as boosting productivity, talent management, best-in-class hiring, HR intelligence and analytics to mention a few,” Shri T. Senthilnathan, HCM project director, Thriveni Earthmovers, said.
“We are fully confident that we have made a best fit solution to reach CEO to workmen together to scale up in keeping with our long-term growth and expansion plans. Our preparedness to embrace the best-in-class HCM practices helped us to go live in a shortest turnaround time of three months for three modules. We are already poised to integrate the additional SuccessFactors solutions like Onboarding, Recruiting Marketing, Learning, Compensation Planning, Succession Planning and Career Development in the coming months.”
