SAP Fieldglass evaluationfeedback

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use it for managing contingent workforce in North America- primarily non-IT contingents. It integrates seamlessly with SAP Ariba via the Business Network in terms of work orders/POs and timesheets/invoices.

Pros

  • Overall responsiveness and support- very helpful
  • Easy to follow and review the job posting through work order approval
  • Simple for a Managed service provider to leverage and administer the contingent workforce program
  • Clear, clean UI and streamlined user interface

Cons

  • Some of the accounting dropdowns/combinations are clunky and not easy to use in conjunction with each other
  • User profiles are not synched with Ariba- sometimes missing information in Ariba would cause invoices to fail/get stuck. Would be helpful to have a hard stop in SAP Fieldglass to prevent such issues
  • Additional expertise across resources would be helpful. As noted, support itself is responsive and willing. However, we would continue to go through our original implementation contact for knowledge and immediate help.

Return on Investment

  • Much greater workforce visibility into hiring and spend
  • Greater compliance with policies and procedures
  • Streamlined and clear end to end contingent workforce process in conjunction with a managed service provider.

Total Visibility!

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I am a user that is in the tool every single day. We currently use Fieldglass to manage our contingent workforce of over 18,000 employees. One big issue we face is pricing/rate visibility and Fieldglass allows total transparency between our suppliers to know we are getting the market value while also displaying market trends. On top of this, SAP is always ahead of the game with KPIs and investing in the new and improved technology which we then reap the benefits of in our system after big releases and software updates.

Pros

  • Pricing Visibility
  • Market trends
  • Technology upgrades

Cons

  • Improved connector descriptions
  • More educational opportunities for quick info

Return on Investment

  • Better access control
  • Over cost reduction due to visibilty
  • Easy to follow interface

Great VMS for workforce management

Pros

  • Quickly Submitting candidates resume
  • Tracking and maintaining all workforce data

Cons

  • To be honest, fieldglass works little slow in terms of software speed. It buffers when you open from one tab to another tab.

Return on Investment

  • I would say better workforce management and tracking
