Hexaware helped a major tire manufacturer reduce costs and improve efficiency by implementing SAP HR modules including payroll, benefits, and personnel administration. Key aspects of the project included interfacing SAP HR with financial systems, migrating legacy data, and providing post-implementation support. Hexaware leveraged an onsite/offshore delivery model and SAP methodologies to complete the implementation on time and on budget while ensuring quality. This allowed the tire manufacturer to streamline operations and reduce costs through improved HRIT systems and ongoing SAP support.
