SAP SuccessFactors: one place for HR, talent and the workforce.

SAP SuccessFactors is SAP's cloud suite for human capital management: core HR, recruiting and onboarding, performance and goals, learning, compensation and workforce analytics. It gives HR a single record of each employee, and gives employees and managers simple tools for the moments that matter in their working lives.

    Employee records, organization structure, positions, job and pay data and workflows in one system, built for multi-country operations.

    Goals, check-ins, reviews and feedback that connect individual work to company priorities.

  • Learning

    Courses, certification tracking and learning paths for employees.

  • Compensation and succession

    Planning, approvals and visibility for pay and incentives, and a view of talent pipelines and succession.

  • People analytics and planning

    Workforce reporting and planning built on live HR data.

Is it the right one?

Where it fits, and where it does not

We would rather you choose the right thing than the one we happen to be discussing.

A strong fit when

  • HR runs on spreadsheets, separate tools or an aging HR system, and records differ between locations.
  • You are growing through new entities or countries and need one HR process everywhere, with local differences handled.
  • You want HR, finance and the ERP to share the same organization and employee data.
  • Managers and employees should be able to do their HR tasks themselves, on a phone or a desktop.

Look at something else when

  • You are a very small team with simple needs: a lighter tool may serve you for now.
  • Your main need is payroll in a country with specific local requirements: we check country coverage and payroll options with you before you commit. For African operations, look also at SeamlessHR, which we deliver.

How we deliver

How Abrimatt delivers SuccessFactors

Every engagement runs in phases, so the business sees progress and risks surface early. The timescale for each phase is set after an assessment, not before.

  1. Assess

    Review HR processes, policies, data and the systems HR depends on.

  2. Design

    Define the organization model, global and local policies, integrations, security and privacy.

  3. Configure

    Set up Employee Central and the modules you chose, with workflows that match how decisions are made.

  4. Integrate

    Connect payroll, finance, identity and the other systems that need employee data.

  5. Migrate and test

    Move employee data with care, and test the processes with HR and managers.

  6. Train and go live

    Role-based training, a managed go-live and support through the first cycles.

Questions we are asked

SuccessFactors: questions and answers

Does SAP SuccessFactors replace payroll?

It is mainly the system of record and process layer for HR. Payroll can be run on SAP's payroll options or in a local provider's system connected to it, depending on the countries involved. We check this early, country by country.

How is employee data protected?

Access follows the roles and permissions you define, and the project includes privacy design: who can see what, how long data is kept, and how requests are handled. We work on this with your HR and legal teams.

Can it connect to our ERP?

Yes. Common integrations pass organization and employee data to SAP S/4HANA and finance systems, and to identity and access systems. We design them with SAP BTP or standard integrations.
