How does a successful Cornerstone implementation work?

Manz AG is a glob­al­ly active high-tech engi­neer­ing com­pa­ny with a focus on the auto­mo­tive & elec­tro­mo­bil­i­ty, elec­tron­ics, ener­gy and bat­tery man­u­fac­tur­ing sec­tors, offer­ing best-in-class pro­duc­tion solu­tions for lithi­um-ion bat­ter­ies and elec­tron­ic com­po­nents and devices. This makes Manz an inno­v­a­tive pio­neer for the glob­al mega­trends of elec­tro­mo­bil­i­ty and dig­i­tal­iza­tion. Manz is just as inno­v­a­tive when it comes to the HR IT land­scape for its employ­ees. Hav­ing already sup­port­ed Manz with the intro­duc­tion of Cor­ner­stone Recruit­ing and Learn­ing in the Asia region, talessio was able to pro­vide sup­port as an imple­men­ta­tion part­ner for the Per­for­mance and Com­pen­sa­tion mod­ules. This involved imple­ment­ing the annu­al per­for­mance review, tar­get set­ting and salary process­es. Manz shares their expe­ri­ence here on the col­lab­o­ra­tion and the course of the project.

Close support and expert advice

Right from the start, talessio and Manz placed great val­ue on close and trust­ing col­lab­o­ra­tion. A ded­i­cat­ed con­tact per­son was avail­able to Manz at all times and answered ques­tions quick­ly and com­pe­tent­ly. Reg­u­lar sta­tus calls helped to main­tain an overview and clar­i­fy issues quick­ly. talessio accom­pa­nied and sup­port­ed Manz through­out the entire project with sound rec­om­men­da­tions based on sys­tem and cus­tomer experience.

Process optimization and system implementation

In order to find the best pos­si­ble solu­tion, the actu­al process was first mapped in the test sys­tem. On this basis, Manz was able to get a visu­al idea of the future imple­men­ta­tion and make changes. talessio sup­port­ed Manz in sim­pli­fy­ing the exist­ing com­plex process with­out chang­ing the fun­da­men­tal cor­ner­stones. Thanks to talessio’s many years of expe­ri­ence, sys­tem-side lim­i­ta­tions were iden­ti­fied ear­ly on and solu­tions found. The pre­con­fig­ured test sys­tem made it pos­si­ble to trans­fer many set­tings direct­ly to the pro­duc­tion envi­ron­ment, sav­ing valu­able time.

“Our pre­vi­ous process was very com­plex and talessio helped us to sim­pli­fy the process with­out chang­ing the fun­da­men­tal cor­ner­stones of our process.” 

Customer focus and added value

The close col­lab­o­ra­tion and open exchange enabled pain points to be iden­ti­fied and over­come at an ear­ly stage. This holis­tic approach makes it pos­si­ble to imple­ment com­plex trans­for­ma­tion projects effi­cient­ly and suc­cess­ful­ly. By work­ing togeth­er, Manz was able to opti­mize and sim­pli­fy process­es and suc­cess­ful­ly trans­fer them to a mod­ern sys­tem. In addi­tion, the project team at Manz is empow­ered to man­age and fur­ther devel­op its process­es in the long term — anoth­er mile­stone on the way to a future-ori­ent­ed HR landscape.
