Technical requirements: The SAP SuccessFactors environment was installed in 2015 to make use of SAP Payrolling. TenneT wants to implement the module ‘Recruitment’ in 2018 and the coming years possibly other modules like ‘Succession Planning’, Performance and Goals' and ‘Compensation Management’.
In Lot 1 TenneT wants to contract two (2) tenderers for all services in scope for both TenneT TSO B.V. as for TenneT TSO GmbH.
For the SAP SuccessFactors module ‘Succession Planning’ both contracted tenderers will be invited to compete in a mini-tender to determine which tenderer a Call-off contract will be awarded to implement the SAP SuccessFactors module ‘Succession Planning’.
Via mini-tenders one (1) of these providers will be awarded a Call-off contract to implement the modules ‘Performance and Goals’ and/or ‘Compensation management’ and/or any additional modules (other than contracted in lot 1).
The Corporate HR MT made the strategic decision to align the recruitment and selection process of the Netherlands and Germany, and to support this process with one implementation of the SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management module for TenneT NL and DE. This project contributes to the rationalisation of the HR application landscape, improvement and harmonisation of processes and single entry of employee data.
The implementation of the SuccessFactors Recruitment and Selection module is one step in harmonising and integrating within HRC, supporting the one company strategy of TenneT. For TenneT NL ‘HR phase 2/Recruitment’ is a continuation of the project ‘HR Core information system’ (also called ‘MyHR’) that implemented the SuccessFactors module ‘Employee Central’ combined with SAP Payroll and went live in January, 2016. For TenneT DE ‘HR Phase2 / Recruitment and Selection’ will be the first SuccessFactors implementation.
Hiring the right people is crucial to reach TenneT's goals. Harmonisation and alignment of the recruitment processes supports internationalisation within TenneT, although minor process deviations per country can be necessary due to local legislation / regulation. Moreover, SuccessFactors Recruitment and Selection leads to a more open and standard recruitment process for whole TenneT. New candidates can be followed within TenneT as a whole and cross border employability will be improved and encouraged. Adjacent goals of corporate HR are that managers in the Netherlands and Germany should experience a comparable support and service level by HR. For employees the new solution should encourage the use of career development opportunities within the company. Furthermore, TenneT will be able to comply with the new privacy demands on handling personal data of job applicants, for instance because the new module provides functionality to delete personal data.
To cater these developments and future developments concerning ‘Succession Planning’ TenneT wants to contract in Lot 1 two (2) tenderers for all services in scope for both TenneT TSO B.V. as for TenneT TSO GmbH.
The tenderer with the highest score on the awarding model will be the awarded a Call-off contract to implement the SAP SuccessFactors module ‘Recruitment’.
