Case Study: Alstom achieves rapid global HR transformation and greater agility with SAP SuccessFactors

Becoming the Preferred Partner for Transport with SAP SuccessFactors Solutions

Alstom, a rail-focused engineering company with about 31,000 employees in 60 countries, needed to replace heavily customized, decade‑old on‑premise HR systems after a major corporate transaction and rapidly improve HR agility and talent visibility. To address this challenge it selected SAP SuccessFactors, deploying SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central along with the SuccessFactors talent, recruiting, and learning solutions to move HR to the cloud.

SAP SuccessFactors implemented a global, integrated cloud HR platform rolled out in a record eight months (excluding learning), delivering integrated talent management, a fully automated recruiting process, and centralized learning. The deployment drove high adoption and measurable impact: 100% satisfaction with the solution, 92% of talent reviews and 85% of performance reviews completed on time, faster reward and compensation actions, improved compliance tracking, and an industry award for Alstom’s HRIS — enabling clearer talent pools and greater organizational agility.
