Challenge:
Streamlining Workforce Management through Intelligent Digitization

Managing a large and diverse contractor workforce across global manufacturing and research sites required a coordinated and structured approach to ensure smooth operations and compliance. The organization’s existing contractor management processes were largely paper driven, involving multiple approvals, document exchanges, and coordination across HR and site teams. As the workforce footprint expanded, these processes required significant time and effort to maintain accuracy, documentation integrity, and adherence to governance standards. Business leaders identified an opportunity to bring greater efficiency, transparency, and scalability to contractor onboarding and workforce management through digital transformation.

Contractor information and updates were handled through internal teams, which meant employees were responsible for data entry, validation, and record maintenance in SAP ECC. This approach made it time-intensive to manage renewals, track compliance, or gain timely visibility into workforce readiness across locations. To enhance productivity and ensure consistent compliance, the organization envisioned a connected, digital platform that would empower contractors with secure self-service access, provide real-time workforce insights, and enable teams to focus on strategic workforce planning rather than administrative tasks.

Solution:
Strengthening Governance Through Integrated Automation

Solution:
Enhancing Workforce Operations with a Unified Digital Platform

To address the growing need for efficiency and visibility, the organization adopted Cherrywork Intelligent Maintenance & Operations (IMO) to modernize and digitize its contractor and employee management processes. Built on SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP), the solution enabled seamless onboarding and offboarding of both contractors and employees through an intuitive, workflow-driven interface. It automated document verification, approvals, and compliance checks, ensuring faster, more structured workforce management while maintaining complete governance across all activities.
