Key Challenges


Technological disparity between major markets (U.S. and UK&I) and secondary/tertiary countries.

Inconsistent HR experiences for employees across 11 different geographies.

Need for global standardization of HR processes and services, many of which were being managed via email and spreadsheets.

Our Solution

Avoiding heavy customizations, Thirdera implemented Human Resources Service Delivery (HRSD) and Employee Center modules to create a comprehensive HR solution. Our HRSD Blueprint served as the basis for a controlled, stepwise rollout to ensure proper prioritization of activities that enable future business optimization.

 

Phase 1 (U.S., UK&I)
We deployed core ServiceNow HRSD capabilities, including Agent Workspace, notifications, routing, and Knowledge base. We also implemented Employee Center with AI search, company branding, and taxonomy features.

Phase 2 (global rollout)

Phase 1 services and workflows were extended to remaining geographies via a strategic and iterative approach to ensure alignment with country-specific requirements.

The Result

Improved global HR experience
The implementation resulted in enhanced service delivery for both HR teams and employees, with a unified Employee Center portal usable across functional areas.

Standardization of HR services
The configuration of simple HR services across multiple countries facilitated employee interactions with HR and Payroll.

 

Increased efficiency and satisfaction
The streamlined processes led to increased efficiency of HR teams and improved employee satisfaction through better HR service experiences.
