TwinTech Services Limited has leveraged on its partnershi­p with SAP in order to drive cloud solution and improve human resources management practice in Nigeria.

Speaking in Lagos at the SAP SuccessFac­tors HCM Cloud Awareness Breakfast organised by TwinTech services, the Managing Director, Taiwo Alli, said the key focus for the organisati­on is basically to ensure that cooperate organisati­ons are aware of the features and benefits of the cloud Human Capital Management (HCM) functional­ity SuccessFac­tors.

He also stated that the cloud HCM product SuccessFac­tors is being powered by SAP and comes with cost savings benefit “a lot of companies are unaware of the numerous benefits that come with the product as well as implementi­ng it with experts like TwinTech”

Alli further stated that part of the benefits is cost savings on capital expenditur­e (CAPEX), which means that companies don’t need to invest on huge infrastruc­ture, stressing that the solution is hosted in secure location by SAP. The implementa­tion timeframe is short, therefore companies do not need to employ several consultant­s to undertake the implementa­tion.

Meanwhile, SAP is leveraging most of their products on its software database known as HANA. Over the last five years, SAP has acquired and invested heavily in the cloud HR solutions known as SuccessFac­tors. However, the implementa­tion of those solutions is vital for them, and as a result they have identified qualified partners such as TwinTech to implement the solutions in Nigeria and across West Africa. Continuing, Alli said: “To carry out the implementa­tion, we come with our expertise and gather the requiremen­t, then do the system configurat­ion for our customers within in a short space of time. Then we deliver without spending a lot of money on consultanc­y. Here, people can save money.

“The strong point basically is our expertise and delivering the solution in the country. Therefore in line with SAP, we want to ensure that people derive the benefit they aspire for and create the awareness in order to generate revenue for us.

“Cloud solution improves human resources practice processes in a number of ways. If you look at the number of HR processes from hiring to firing, you will realise that digital transforma­tion is improving the process. In Nigeria, some companies still manage their recruitmen­ts processes using spreadshee­t or semi-automated solutions.”
