Pros

  • Manage 3rd party workforce.
  • Cost management associated to the outcome.

Cons

  • Integration issues.
  • Sync recover.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

My organization uses SAP FG for the following: Standardized competitive sourcing process to find candidates with the right skills at compliant with market rate table. It is a centralized platform for managing the entire contractor lifecycle from hiring to payment. Integration with DXC's procurement and approval workflows. Visibility into contractor workforce and spend management. Reporting is accurate and very useful.

Pros

  • Contractors Sourcing
  • Timesheet management
  • Invoice processing and confirmation
  • Track approval process

Cons

  • Multi Taxes for states/provinces are not calculated correctly.
  • When timesheets approvals have an issue, they are not easy to fix, requires more technical experts to fix it.
  • Timesheets need to repush because they don't flow correctly and suppliers don't get paid on time.

Return on Investment

  • SAP FG is a single platform we use.
  • Streamline workflow- visible to Supply Chain, Business Units, Executives, etc.
  • Faster hiring that helps DXC achieve revenue targets

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

It helps provide a centralized system where we can track worker details. contract dates, rates, approvals, documentation, and supplier performance. It is quite useful in that it provides good visibility into external workforce spending, any inconsistent hiring process, or excessive manual coordination among hiring managers, procurement, staffing suppliers, etc.

Pros

  • Central External Workforce Management.
  • Standardized Hiring and approvals.
  • Integration with other SAP systems.

Cons

  • Some fields have too many fields and tabs which can be worked upon.
  • Better search and filtering capability.
  • Mobile experience for approvals, timesheet candidate review, etc., should be added to enhance management's experience in an on-the-go setup.

Return on Investment

  • Better visibility of the spent management on the contingent worker.
  • Reliable information to take informed decision for the leadership.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Our organization is a supply chain company with many casuals working across multiple warehouses. Also, there are drivers who are contracted on a regular basis. We have SAP ECC as the core of our landscape for managing our business operations. We needed software to address the challenges of managing the temporary workforce, including hiring, timesheets, and expenses.

Pros

  • Ability to raise request efficiently for additional workforce during peak season.
  • Onboarding and compliance of the casual workforce.
  • Analytics over the spend on the casual workforce.

Cons

  • The UI is not up to the mark to the new SaaS counterparts.
  • The software is efficient but requires training. It's not so intuitive as the peer.
  • Implementation cost is quite high as compared to the peers.

Return on Investment

  • Decreased efforts in managing vendors.
  • Better and less time consuming workforce onboarding and compliance experience.
  • Efficient spending on casuals.
