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.
“Estamos en una situación mucho mejor en la tecnología de RR. HH., en la forma como nos organizamos y trabajamos a nivel mundial, desde completar nuestra implantación de 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 la gestión de competencias y cualificaciones, DNV GL debe seguir las regulaciones de mercadodefinidas por organismos reguladores externos, que auditan periódicamente a la empresa. Por lo tanto, se requería la construcción de una aplicación específica para respaldar esos procesos. DNV GL creó el módulo de gestión de competencias a medida basado en servicios de plataforma como servicio (PaaS) en Oracle Cloud. Lo que realmente nos ayudó fue la estrecha colaboración con el equipo A de Oracle. Nos ayudaron a obtener la comprensión necesaria sobre las tecnologías de Oracle Cloud. También nos ayudaron a crear la arquitectura adecuada para nuestras necesidades empresariales.
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.
