Case Study: STARK Group builds a scalable HR foundation with Workday

Stark Group scales HR operations to 20,000 employees with Workday

Stark Group, a major European distributor of building materials with 20,000 employees, faced a challenge in managing HR across its seven countries following a period of rapid growth through acquisitions. Their legacy systems were siloed and inflexible, preventing global oversight and hindering the integration of new companies. They turned to the vendor Workday to implement a modern HR foundation that could provide both centralized data and local flexibility.

By implementing Workday across key HR areas including performance, compensation, recruiting, and payroll, Stark Group created a single, trusted system of record. The solution provided the agility to efficiently roll out standardized processes in new countries. As a result, Workday enabled Stark Group to scale its HR operations to support all 20,000 employees with a very lean central team, building a scalable foundation for future growth.
