Case Study: BP achieves compliant, multi-language HR document automation with ActiveDocs

ActiveDocs document automation and compliance solution enforces accuracy and quality in BP's global human resources operations

BP, the sixth largest company in the world with more than 85,000 employees across 80+ countries, faced a high-volume HR document challenge: creating contracts, amendments, reward communications and other localized documents that must follow complex, site- and role-specific business rules. Data required for documents lived in disparate systems (SAP, BrassRing and other repositories), making creation slow, error-prone and often dependent on IT to assemble accurate, up-to-date content and translations.

BP implemented the ActiveDocs document automation and compliance solution, leveraging its Rules Engine, Data Views, Word-based Templates, web-based wizard and multi-language capabilities. ActiveDocs integrates with SAP, BrassRing and other corporate sources, enforces local legislation, policies and branding at document creation, lets business users build templates without IT, and supports automated, high-throughput generation — delivering dramatically reduced deployment time, elimination of routine IT involvement, consistent, audit-ready documents and scalable output across BP’s 80+ country footprint.
