EMpower, L&T Infotech’s SAP-Human Capital Management (HCM) implementation, was adjudged the ‘Best Run HR Implementation’ at SAP India’s recently concluded ACE Awards 2013. Hosted annually in a grand way, SAP’s ‘Award for Customer Excellence’ (ACE) is a tribute to its customers who have used, learnt, innovated and leveraged the power of SAP solutions.

EMpower (L&T Infotech’s internal Human Resources portal), runs on SAP HCM ECC 6.0, and went live on January 23, 2013. A total of 5 HCM modules, covering 16 process areas, have been implemented in EMpower’s Phase I: Recruitment, Personnel Administration, Organization Management, Time Management and Employee/Manager Self Service (ESS/MSS).

Before commencing the implementation, a detailed study was conducted for internal and external benchmarking of each process and a ‘process wish list’ was generated based on user inputs. While implementing EMpower, the L&T Infotech team defined an ETL Strategy for complete data migration that helped in reduction of efforts from 5 weeks to 4 days.

In addition, L&T Infotech’s Proprietary tools were leveraged, Example: EZ CUTOVER – to enable reuse of migration objects; CODE REO to help improve program efficiency.
