Case Study: Kibar Holding achieves unified workforce visibility and 37% faster hiring with SAP SuccessFactors

How Do You Make 23 Different Companies Act Like One

Kibar Holding, a diversified industrial group of 23 operating companies, faced fragmented HR processes that prevented a single view of talent and limited cross-company mobility. To build a unified “Maestro” HR system and empower managers as HR leaders, Kibar implemented SAP SuccessFactors solutions, including Performance & Goals, Recruiting, Succession & Development, and Learning (with Employee Central planned).

With SAP SuccessFactors, Kibar centralized recruiting and talent management, cascaded goals, enabled mobile access, and introduced group-wide succession planning and competency tracking. The change produced measurable impact: a 12% rise in employee engagement, 37% faster time to fill positions, faster hiring and talent deployment across companies, greater HR efficiency and transparency, and improved learning alignment to leadership values.
