ROC and Towers Perrin jointly delivered another successful webinar last month. “Improving your processes with SAP HCM Adobe Form technology” attracted a record number of attendees and was very well received by its audience. Those who participated left with an understanding of why organizations need to improve usability to achieve success with their self-service deployments, and learned what those who are seeing the best results are doing to ensure their success. If you missed the webinar, a recording is available.

An implementation of SAP’s HCM Processes & Forms may seem daunting to many organizations. In his White Paper, Brad Bach examines the benefits, scope, comparisons with previous solutions, and implementation considerations for this new functionality.

For organizations that wish to revisit the goals and effectiveness of their SAP HCM implementation, maybe as a result of changes in the corporate environment or the availability of improved functionality, ROC can help clarify their strategic vision.

Our SAP HCM Roadmap is a document created as a result of a series of interviews and a half day workshop. The final product will take the vision of the organization, express this within a the context of SAP, and lay out a path of technical and functional elements that are required in order to achieve that vision.
ROC is pleased to announce the launch of its accelerated approach to SAP HCM Processes & Forms, one of the latest technology components available on the SAP HCM platform. This SAP technology allows organizations to replace many manual form based processes with interactive Adobe Form technology to reduce HR cycle times, improve accuracy and compliance with approval requirements. ROC’s accelerated solution delivers 10 forms out of the box and reduces implementation time significantly.

Risk mitigation and maintaining ‘business as usual’ were important considerations when Premier Foods selected ROC to work on the SAP HCM element of the Fusion programme. ROC’s considerable experience in large scale SAP HCM implementations was one of the main reasons it was chosen, along with its Best Practice HR accelerated solution, which the consultancy developed in conjunction with SAP. The best practice approach meant the project was based on proven processes, so configuration time could be kept to a minimum and the time taken to test the system could be maximised to ensure successful delivery.
