Case Study: Watco saves time and simplifies HR with SAP SuccessFactors

How Can People Get So Excited About an Org Chart

Watco, a transportation company with over 3,500 employees, faced significant challenges as it grew. Its outdated human capital management system created a heavy administrative burden, burying vital personnel data in paperwork and forcing managers to rely on HR for basic information. To address this, Watco turned to vendor SAP and implemented its SAP SuccessFactors solutions.

The solution from SAP provided a cloud-based platform with an outstanding user interface and mobile support, making data instantly available and eliminating the need for repetitive data entry. The results were highly impactful: the need to rekey HR data was reduced to zero, the payroll team was cut from four people to two, and employees gained self-service access to information. This saved significant time across the organization, reduced stress, and improved the company's ability to support its far-flung workforce.
