Introduction
A producer and distributor of The Coca-Cola Company, Coca-Cola Europacific Partners (CCEP) is the largest global bottler of Coca-Cola beverages in the world. In 2014, just prior to working with ADP, there was a global shift whereby organizations started bringing together the back office of HR and implementing shared HCM services.
CCEP came to the conclusion that it needed not just one HR system, but a standardized system for both HR and payroll in order to fully leverage the power of payroll. Over time, complexities had crept into processes and systems, and adopting ADP solutions provided transparency and the opportunity to stand back and really examine the protocols around payroll, particularly with regards to how they could be simplified and optimized.
The challenges
Prior to working with ADP, CCEP found themselves in the same situation as many large global organizations: with a scattered internal landscape of different payroll and HR solutions from multiple vendors that had accumulated over time. Using both on- and off- premise solutions, they faced the challenge of standardizing processes across regions in order to make payroll more effective. No matter how big a local region or how many employees, each must have a payroll system that adapts to their unique legislative and regulatory requirements, while also feeding into to inter-regional systems.
The solution
By adopting ADP Global Payroll solution including an enhanced integration with SuccessFactors core HR, CCEP was able to provide one standardized, common view of payroll — streamlining data sets, processes, and ways of working across 13 countries in order to successfully connect ADP Global Payroll to the CCEP Core HR system. The decision to partner with ADP to adopt standard global practices was relatively straightforward, but it was the detail within each region that added complexity to the process. With different fiscal systems, fast changing local regulations, and tax compliance for each country, ADP’s expertise in regional compliance and global standardization was fundamental to transform the payroll processes of CCEP. ADP’s unique expertise from a payroll to core HR integration perspective enabled to benefits from a seamless end-to-end integrated process.
The results
Adopting ADP’s solutions created a language around payroll internationally, which helped to foster internal collaboration and integration, empowering the international team to make smarter choices and to leverage internal capabilities. Unlike scattered internal systems, a standardized system gives more flexibility and the agility to adapt to the constant changes taking place in the payroll industry and wider world.
Implementing a global payroll system integrated to core HR, helped CCEP to handle not only changes in the payroll industry, but also internal company changes. Operating with a simplified, but powerful architecture of technology provides a solid foundation from which internal organizational change is easier to manage.
