The Solution
DENTSPLY committed to building a strong foundation for
understanding its workforce as the first step in improving its
ability to proactively manage talent. The organization
identified a need for a single system of record that would
no longer rely on payroll systems for employee data.
DENTSPLY would use the improved visibility to define
workforce plans based on skills, geographies, roles and
other essential areas. Sharing information with the employee
population, co-workers can easily find and connect with
each other beyond geographic or functional boundaries,
fostering increased employee collaboration

The Results
DENTSPLY is in the final stages of implementing Employee Central, Success
Factors global Core HR solution, to create a foundation for its global talent
management and workforce planning strategy. DENTSPLY anticipates substantial
time and cost savings by reallocating resources to focus on value-added management and HR initiatives, leaving behind the administrative strain of manually
managing over 56 disparate HR systems and associated data.
The organization will soon be live on Employee Central in 48 countries for approximately two-thirds of its employee population. With the new system in place,
DENTSPLY will be able to deliver accurate reporting and analytics from a single
global system of record. Leadership will have easy access to a comprehensive
view of the global team. As DENTSPLY grows and prospers, Management can
use the system to make deliberate decisions related to workforce needs. The
system supports accurate real-time and transparent views of the current employee
population and allows for reporting turnover trends and compensation linked to
performance. Employee Central will also dramatically improve adherence to and
consistency in standardized HR processes and workflows. People managers will
also benefit by having real-time access to employee data leading to informed
decision-making relative to their teams.
DENTSPLY appropriately branded its new HR system as DENTSPLY Connections.
We are excited to add DENTSPLY Connections (Employee Central) to our suite of
global IT solutions that helps us work together across time zones and geographies. With global email, phone systems, and video conferencing we are able to
collaborate with each other. Now with DENTSPLY Connections, we get to know
each other, leverage our global knowledge, and better share experiences, stated
Bill Schlageter, Vice President and Chief Information Officer, DENTSPLY.
The company expects employees to quickly recognize DENTSPLY Connections
value. Employees will experience increased transparency regarding globally
standardized employment lifecycle processes. They will learn how to connect and
build relationships with colleagues across divisions, regions and countries.
Together, the global employee population can work toward common goals leading
to DENTSPLYs growth, as well as their individual career growth.
