Case Study: Egyptian Drilling Company achieves streamlined talent management and increased employee engagement with Oracle HCM Cloud

Egyptian Drilling Company Drives Growth by Managing Talent with Oracle HCM Cloud

Egyptian Drilling Company (EDC) is a leading drilling contractor in Egypt and the MENA region with a fleet of 70 rigs and a strong focus on safety and talent development. EDC faced fragmented, spreadsheet-based performance reviews and limited visibility into talent and workforce allocation across rigs and offices, making it hard to align individual goals with company strategy, monitor appraisal completion, identify training needs, and retain top engineering and executive talent.

EDC implemented Oracle HCM Cloud (including Goal and Performance Management), integrated with on-premises Oracle E‑Business Suite and delivered by Crystal Consulting Services in four months. The cloud solution automated performance and talent processes for 700+ staff, provided consolidated dashboards and traceable workflows, sped identification of performance issues, improved workforce planning and succession tracking, linked pay to performance, and boosted employee engagement and retention while saving substantial HR administration time.
