Inside SAP’s approach to Org Design with org.manager

Jun 16, 2025

SAP is one of the world’s largest software companies, with over 100,000 employees globally. To stay competitive, they regularly undergo large-scale reorganisations and doing that efficiently isn’t always easy.

The Challenge

Before using org.manager, SAP’s internal teams were bogged down by:

  • Manual processes in Excel and PowerPoint
  • Fragmented data from multiple systems
  • Weeks of delays between planning and execution

These challenges made it difficult to implement changes quickly and confidently — especially in a business where speed and clarity matter.

The Solution: org.manager for SAP SuccessFactors

org.manager enabled SAP to shift from spreadsheet-heavy planning to real-time, system-connected organisational design.

With org.manager, their HR and leadership teams can:

  • Run live reorganisation simulations directly in SAP SuccessFactors
  • Automatically sync and validate data
  • Upload new org structures with a single click

The result? Fast, accurate change execution without the admin load.
