Galderma - SAP NetWeaver Identity Management
““We wanted to streamline lifetime user
access management across our entire
HR business landscape, replace multiple
user names and passwords with single
sign-on linked to SAP NetWeaver Portal,
and build in scalability and advanced
functionality to handle our growing and
changing business requirements,” says
Bénédicte Mombereau, SAP project
leader at Galderma. “At the same time
we needed to protect the integrity of
critical information assets by enforcing
compliance with our stringent corporate
data protection guidelines.”
Lausanne, Switzerland–based dermatology company Galderma, with
3,100 employees in 31 countries, has increased staff productivity
and cut administration costs by centralizing and automating secure,
hire-to-retire access provisioning to the business-critical HR applications
using the SAP NetWeaver® Identity Management component.
Employees in the 31 countries in which Galderma operates use the
identity management software to gain rapid, one-stop, role-based
access to the applications they need to complete their HR processes.
Ease of administration and user self-service have transformed a
partially manual, resource-intensive process that used to take several
days. Typical lead time for setting up new starters or modifying existing
user-access privileges is now reduced to a few hours in a synchronized,
end-to-end automated process without the need for manual
intervention.
Galderma wanted an identity management
solution that could provide a
trusted source of HR user information
and automate access authorizations
with near-future workflow technology.
SAP NetWeaver Identity Management
has the flexibility to allow Galderma to
define different rules according to the
roles of each HR user. It would enable
the company to assign responsibility for
authorization to the appropriate business
process owners or employee managers
in line with corporate guidelines that
are integrated with the SAP ERP Human
Capital Management (SAP ERP HCM)
solution. Galderma also chose SAP
NetWeaver Identity Management for its
ability to consolidate employee identity
data from different source solutions,
such as SAP ERP HCM, and distribute
it to multiple target systems automatically.
“SAP NetWeaver Identity Management
offered us an integrated, business-driven,
and compliant identity management
solution on a standards-based technology
platform. It was the best fit for our needs,”
says Bénédicte Mombereau. “Deep
integration with our SAP environment
and the connectivity with SAP ERP HCM provide automated event-driven provisioning
based on each person’s job
function and the employee details held
in our human resources database.”
