Throughout 2008 ROC has seen a rapid expansion in its global footprint, including the addition of three more strategic countries: Benelux, South Africa and Australia & New Zealand. ROC now has an employee base of over 300 Business Transformation and SAP HCM experts across the globe, which is set to continue growing during 2009.

Les Hayman, chairman of ROC and ex-CEO of SAP EMEA commented: “Our ongoing partnership programme has been central to ROC’s success this year. Our global clients are now able to access ROC’s knowledge and expertise in every major geography around the world. This allows us to create globally joined-up SAP thinking for large enterprises, whilst spreading ROC’s in-depth SAP understanding to locally operating players. 2009 will provide many possibilities for ROC to continue its growth, seeking out new areas for expansion and taking advantage of every new opportunity.”

ROC Global CEO, Jerry Chilvers, said, “It is great to see our business succeeding despite the economic challenges. I’m very proud of the ROC team’s performance over the past 12 months and am confident we can continue and expand upon our successes throughout 2009.

Olivia Farry — Sat, 20 Jan 2007 00:00:00 +0000

ROC has recently fully integrated its demonstration capabilities such that existing and potential customers can now view the full suite of SAP’s Human Capital Management (HCM) functionality on a single environment. Not only that, but this capability is also portable which allows ROC to bring all this functionality to life at your premises.

The demonstration scenarios follow a candidate through their application to the company via e Recruitment, their subsequent induction as an employee, and then follow them through the first year within the organisation including on-line appraisal reviews and performance based remuneration. Key Performance Indicators are reported to managers using SAP’s Business Warehouse.

The functionality is made available to users predominantly via SAP’s Self Service applications – Manager Self Service, Employee Self Service and the newly introduced HR Administrator Self Service delivered through an Internet Explorer Portal.

If your organisation is considering the implementation of an integrated HCM software application, then email us at enquiries@roc-group.com or telephone +44 (0)1932 268512.
