Case Study: Siemens achieves $17M in external workforce savings and streamlined flexible labor processes with SAP Ariba (SAP Fieldglass)

Siemens - Customer Case Study

Siemens, a global IM&C company based in Germany with 348,000 employees, needed better visibility into its flexible workforce and to reduce the cost and administrative burden of managing temporary labor, which relied on manual, paper-based processes.

As a buyer, Siemens implemented SAP Fieldglass External Talent Management and Services Procurement to digitize workflows and centralize external workforce management. The program delivered $17 million in savings (including $400,000 from converting 2,000 paper invoices to electronic submittals), a 45% reduction in processes from requisition to invoicing, and a 25% reduction in end-to-end cycle time.
