DNV uses Oracle Cloud to manage a global workforce
DNV, formed in 1864 as a classification society for Norwegian ships, implemented Oracle HCM to lead its global workforce as it moves into new businesses.
“A tecnologia de RH está muito melhor, tanto na forma como estamos organizados quanto na forma como trabalhamos globalmente, desde a conclusão da implementação do Oracle Cloud HCM.”
Business challenges
With 12,000 full-time employees plus 8,000 contingent workers in more than 100 countries, DNV needed a way to provide uniform human resources policies and processes around the globe. DNV, after more than 150 years of growth and diversification, offers insurance, quality assurance, and certification services to its 100,000 customers in industries including maritime shipping, construction, oil and gas, renewable energies, food, healthcare, and many others. The company implemented Oracle Cloud HCM to meet its needs.
Para o Gerenciamento de Competências e Qualificações, a DNV GL precisa seguir os regulamentos de mercado cruciais para os negócios, definidos por órgãos reguladores externos que auditam regularmente a empresa. Portanto, a construção de um aplicativo específico para oferecer suporte a esses processos foi necessária. A DNV GL criou o módulo de Administração de Competências sob medida com base em serviços de plataforma como serviço (PaaS) na Oracle Cloud. O que de fato nos ajudou foi a estreita colaboração com a "Oracle A-Team". Eles nos ajudaram a obter o entendimento necessário sobre as tecnologias da Oracle Cloud. Também nos ajudaram a criar a arquitetura certa para nossas necessidades comerciais.
Why DNV chose Oracle
Results
The benefits DNV derives from Oracle Cloud HCM includes further streamlining of processes, as well as secure and compliant handling of personnel data. Additionally, Oracle Cloud HCM provides enhanced analytics and reporting that enables HR users to better manage their workforce and report out of one system across the different modules implemented, such as Performance Management, Workforce Compensation, and Succession Management.
Employee and line manager self-service, supported by system-based approval workflows, have been introduced in some HR processes. This gives the DNV workforce direct access to HR data and allows them to take an active part in HR processes.
With all these HR self-service capabilities running from one system instead of several individual applications, the user has a consistent user experience throughout the HCM suite. This also means less new learning for newly deployed applications in Oracle Cloud HCM.
DNV was also able to decommission legacy systems, reducing double data entry while improving data quality. Real-time information on org charts, competencies, and skills across the larger DNV community lets the team easily respond to customer needs.
Finally, an improved user interface lets self-service users navigate the system more intuitively, enables possibilities to use different devices, and helps users find the information they need quickly, including reports on key data. The new user experience Oracle provided was especially helpful in the areas of Performance and Succession Management, as well as core HR self-services.
"Before the Oracle Cloud HCM implementation, we were convinced that having an integrated HCM system supporting many HR functions was the right thing to do for DNV. Having all HR-related information in one secure place and being able to utilize that information for multiple business purposes brings us many benefits,” says Richard Verhart, DNV's global HR service delivery manager and project manager for Oracle Cloud HCM.
