Case Study: Gestamp Automocion achieves centralized HR visibility and global compliance with SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central

Gaining Maximum Value from Talent Solutions with Robust People Data Stored in SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central

Gestamp Automocion, a global automotive metal‑components manufacturer with about 45,000 employees, faced fragmented on‑premise HR systems after acquiring some 200 companies, which hindered visibility, talent acquisition and retention for the shift to electric vehicles, and compliance with labor laws across 21 countries and 100 sites. To address these challenges, Gestamp Automocion turned to SAP SuccessFactors, deploying the SAP SuccessFactors Human Experience Management Suite—centered on SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central and integrated modules for Recruiting, Onboarding, Performance & Goals, and Time Tracking.

SAP SuccessFactors implemented Employee Central as a single global system of record in roughly nine months, standardizing people data and enabling advanced time‑sheet and shift tracking for both office and manual workers. The solution delivered faster, more accurate reporting and insights, improved HR and management data access, and reduced compliance risk across 100 sites in 21 countries, unlocking greater value from Gestamp Automocion’s talent processes.
