Case Study: Brunswick achieves 90%+ salaried review participation and clearer goal alignment with SumTotal Systems' Talent: Performance (cloud)

Brunswick - Customer Case Study

Brunswick Corporation, a Fortune 500 maker of marine engines, boats, fitness equipment and related products, faced inconsistent performance reviews: employees were unclear about their goals and ratings did not align with company financial results. An executive-sponsored task force was formed to overhaul workforce performance management.

Brunswick implemented SumTotal Talent: Performance (cloud), leveraging its configurability, deployment flexibility and integration to standardize the process. The new system drove higher participation and alignment—over 90% of salaried employees were reviewed—and increased employee understanding of how individual goals support overall company success.
