Case Study: Corning modernizes global HR and boosts mobile access with SAP SuccessFactors

How Does a Global Industrial Giant Digitalize and Optimize a Daunting Amount of HR Data in the Cloud

Corning, a global leader in specialty glass and ceramics manufacturing, faced the challenge of modernizing its outgrown, on-premise HR platform. The company needed to accommodate its growing global workforce and the increasing use of mobile devices at work. To address this, Corning chose SAP as its vendor, implementing the SAP SuccessFactors solutions to create a new cloud-based human capital management (HCM) platform.

SAP provided the SAP SuccessFactors solutions along with support services to manage the complex global migration of data and HR modules. The implementation gave Corning's employees comprehensive mobile access to HR resources and streamlined talent management processes across numerous countries. The results were significant, with 60% of the employee base accessing the new system within the first four weeks and 20,000 candidates applying through it in the first month.
