• Develop talent in a targeted way with SuccessFactors (SF) and ensure the long-term retention of your best staff.
• Save time and resources: SF automates administrative tasks, from recruitment with SmartRecruiters through to payroll and time tracking. You’ll be supported in this by AI agents.
• Make HR decisions based on real-time data: with People Intelligence, you can keep track of requirements, skills and risks at all times.

• You are still using SAP HCM on SAP ECC and are planning to migrate to SAP SF.
• You want to benefit from the latest AI functionalities and agents in the HR world.
• You would like to take your recruitment to the next level with SmartRecruiters – the new, strategic recruitment solution within the SAP ecosystem.
• You want to use People Intelligence to make data-driven and forward-looking HR decisions.
• You want to avoid the risks associated with the end of support for SAP HCM at the end of 2027.
• You want to future-proof your HR strategy by moving to a cloud-based system that supports flexible customisation and continuous innovation.

SAP SuccessFactors is SAP’s cloud-based HXM (Human Experience Management) suite and the strategic successor to the traditional SAP HCM environment.

The solution covers all end-to-end processes in the HR sector – whether it’s Recruit to Onboard, Develop to Grow, Reward to Retain or Manage Workforce. It is also the platform on which SAP is building its AI future: Autonomous HCM.

Solutions and services are available for all areas of HR:

• Master data management (Employee Central)
• Recruitment – with SmartRecruiters as the new, strategic recruitment solution
• Talent and performance management (Performance & Goals, Career Development)
• Time tracking (Employee Central Time Tracking)
• Payroll (Employee Central Payroll)
• Succession planning (Succession & Development)
• People Intelligence – data-driven workforce insights across the entire suite

With SAP SF, you can streamline your HR processes and actively promote the retention and development of your staff and teams. Data, services and processes integrate seamlessly – management can focus more on strategic HR issues, whilst administrative workload is reduced.

People Intelligence turns HR data into decisions. Instead of fragmented reports from individual systems, you get a comprehensive, reliable picture of your workforce in real time. This allows you to link your HR strategy directly to what your business actually needs:

• What skills does your organisation have today, and which ones will be missing tomorrow?
• Forward-looking insights: identify staff turnover risks, staffing shortages and succession gaps before they become a problem.
• Skills, performance, remuneration and key business metrics in a single, consistent model rather than in silos.
• Transparent, auditable and GDPR-compliant.

The next stage of SAP SF is already here: AI agents that not only support HR processes but also carry them out independently. SAP calls this vision ‘Autonomous HCM’, and SF is the platform on which it becomes a reality. The principle is this: people set the direction; assistants coordinate; agents carry out the tasks – throughout the entire ‘Hire to Retire’ process.

Autonomy with control: People remain in charge and make the decisions. Every AI action is traceable and auditable. Agents inherit existing SAP authorisations and data protection policies – governance is built in from the outset, rather than being added as an afterthought.

• Holistic career and talent management
• Automation of HR processes – increasingly driven by AI agents
• Improved team and employee experience
• People Intelligence: forward-looking, data-driven decisions
• Modern recruitment with SmartRecruiters
• Access to all SAP HR innovations (including Autonomous HCM)

Important Information: Companies must take action and address the further development of their HCM system landscape, as mainstream maintenance for SAP HCM ends on December 31, 2027 (or with extended maintenance at the end of 2030).
