Case Study: BlueTriton Brands achieves a rapid, unified HR transformation and $24M annual savings with SAP SuccessFactors

BlueTriton Brands Makes a Splash with a Rapid HR Transformation

BlueTriton Brands, a North American beverage company of about 7,000 employees, faced a disconnected workforce, distributed data across disparate systems, inefficient manual HR processes, and an accelerated divestiture timeline after separating from Nestlé. To modernize quickly, they selected SAP SuccessFactors as the core HCM platform (including Employee Central, EC Payroll, Recruiting, Onboarding, Learning, Compensation) alongside SAP Build Work Zone and SAP BTP, integrating with third-party payroll and benefits vendors.

SAP SuccessFactors led a multi-vendor, multi-module implementation that consolidated legacy systems into a single cloud HCM tenant and enabled automated, self-service HR processes. The deployment (completed in roughly 7–8 months) delivered a unified workforce experience, reduced systems from 49 to 26, produced $24M in total annual HR savings, achieved a 13‑month ROI, cut external HR spend by 50%, and accelerated implementation by 40%, demonstrating measurable productivity and cost improvements under the SAP SuccessFactors solution.
