Case Study | Fallstudie; Ferro

The goal was to allow Ferro visibility to their entire employee population via a single system of record.

Ferro is a leading global producer of technology-based performance materials for manufacturers. Headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio, Ferro has operations in 23 countries. They sell products in more than 100 countries around the world. 

The lack of a single system of record for all employees worldwide resulted in several issues, such as: limited visibility into global employee data, inaccurate global headcount data and highly manual operations with inaccuracies and long cycle times.

In addition, Ferro was working with a previous install of SAP 4.6c that was not rolled out globally.  The decision to upgrade the HCM system to SAP 6.0 was made to accomplish two goals.
