Case Study: Metropolitan Utilities District achieves 12,000 hours of annual time savings with SAP SuccessFactors

Saving 12,000 Hours Annually Using SAP SuccessFactors Solutions

Metropolitan Utilities District (M.U.D.), the Omaha-based utility serving about 600,000 people, faced complex, paper-based HR processes supported by five legacy systems and countless spreadsheets. With imminent retirements and difficulty recruiting skilled candidates, M.U.D. selected SAP SuccessFactors — deploying Performance & Goals, Recruiting, and Compensation (with SAP Fiori and integration to its SAP ERP/HCM/CRM landscape) — to modernize recruiting, performance appraisals, and compensation.

SAP SuccessFactors delivered a cloud-based, integrated HR suite that automated workflows, standardized appraisals, and enabled pay-for-performance tied to goals. The solution cut 12,000 hours of manual processing annually, reduced applicant processing from three weeks to five minutes (1,200 applicants narrowed to about 10), consolidated five systems into one, lowered IT maintenance, improved HR visibility and employee engagement, and freed HR to focus on strategic initiatives.
