Case Study: Golden State Foods achieves real-time talent insights and streamlined talent management with SAP SuccessFactors

Golden State Foods Nurturing Talent with SAP SuccessFactors Solutions

Golden State Foods, a global food supplier with 6,500 employees, faced a largely paper-based talent management process that could take up to eight weeks to process performance reviews and update employee profiles. To attract, develop, and retain talent more effectively, Golden State Foods chose SAP SuccessFactors, implementing SAP SuccessFactors Succession & Development and SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting.

Working with partner Quadrant 4, SAP SuccessFactors digitized and automated employee profiles, centralized historical records, and made performance, strengths, and career aspirations searchable—shifting reviews from an eight-week cycle to real-time access and eliminating roughly 300 binders a year. The SAP SuccessFactors solution improved succession planning and recruiter agility, boosted executive visibility and employee engagement, reduced administrative workload, and enabled faster, data-driven talent decisions.
