Case Study: Leading Tyre Manufacturing Company achieves 30% faster appraisal cycles and improved talent management with Datamatics' SharePoint–SAP Performance Management solution

A leading Tyre Manufacturing giant achieves better employee management

Leading Tyre Manufacturing Company, a tyre manufacturing giant with more than $600M in annual turnover and 15+ plants across Asia, needed an automated, transparent performance management system that would integrate seamlessly with its existing SAP platform. The existing appraisal process was slow, error-prone, based on legacy technology, and suffered data loss in transit. Datamatics proposed a SharePoint 2010–based Performance Management System to address goal setting, appraisals, offline reviews and reporting while connecting to SAP.

Datamatics delivered a customized solution after an onsite analysis and POC, using SharePoint 2010 with SAP .NET Connector and WebServices, developed via an Agile approach to support goal initiation, appraisal flows, offline reviews and progress reports. The implementation improved cross-department communication, ensured secure migration and retrieval of historical data, and produced measurable benefits — a 30% reduction in appraisal cycle time, superior data accuracy with no data loss, improved user productivity and better talent management — earning Datamatics a preferred-vendor role for further HR applications.
