During its annual SuccessConnect event held at The Venetian Convention Center in Las Vegas, SAP made a significant announcement regarding the integration of an AI-powered talent intelligence hub and skills framework into the core of SAP SuccessFactors HXM Suite. As part of SAP's strategy to establish an enterprise AI ecosystem, these new AI-driven solutions are now aimed at addressing HR challenges.

SAP's AI capabilities will encompass the entire SAP SuccessFactors Human Experience Management (HXM) Suite, enhancing the employee experience across various HR aspects, including talent acquisition, internal mobility, learning, performance management, and overall decision-making related to people.

SAP SuccessFactors is an integral part of the broader SAP portfolio, offering one of the most extensive suites of business applications, with a customer base of over 26,000 cloud clients. The inclusion of SAP Business AI technology, accessible across various scenarios and partner solutions, is intended to empower businesses to adapt and thrive in an ever-evolving business landscape.

Aaron Green, Chief Marketing and Solutions Officer for SAP SuccessFactors at SAP, emphasized that the AI capabilities within SAP SuccessFactors solutions prioritize people and their experiences. He highlighted how these AI capabilities will unlock new potentials, enhance performance, and improve operational efficiency for both individuals and organizations.

The talent intelligence hub, integrated into SAP SuccessFactors HXM Suite, serves as an AI-driven engine for an organization's talent and learning strategy, creating a comprehensive skills profile for each employee. With this hub, organizations can utilize a unified skills model to drive various HR functions such as recruitment, onboarding, learning and development, and performance management.

Employees will have the ability to record and manage information about themselves, including their aspirations, motivations, preferences, and working styles. Managers will be able to view, add, and update skills and other attributes for their team members, offering enhanced visibility into skill coverage and gaps within their teams.

Josh Bersin, a global HR industry analyst from The Josh Bersin Company, praised SAP's leadership in the HR tech market and highlighted how SAP's AI offerings help organizations effectively hire, develop, and upskill their employees on a large scale.

The SuccessConnect event provided both in-person and virtual attendees with insights into SAP's AI-powered HR solutions. The event brought together leaders from the business, IT, and HR sectors to share successful strategies for building a future-ready workforce and a profitable business.

During the event, SAP showcased various AI capabilities, all slated for release by the end of October. Notably, this included SAP's latest generative AI copilot, Joule, and its impact on HR-related tasks such as managing time-off requests, handling names, locations, and pronouns. Additional functionalities, including clocking in and out and accessing pay statements, are expected to be available at the beginning of the next year.
