Eliminating the Global Payroll Burden — 31 Countries Consolidated
A leading provider of office equipment in retail and supply chain distribution — serving 31 countries across 16 offices — consolidated 12+ local payroll providers into a single global view through PCL Global Payroll on Oracle Cloud HCM.
The Challenge
The organisation managed payroll through 12+ local payroll providers across 31 countries — creating data silos at each source. Information was manually aggregated into Excel spreadsheets, with manual approval needed for every payroll run.
Multiple people verified multiple spreadsheets every cycle. Visibility was limited, compliance was difficult to evidence, and the process couldn't scale.
The Solution
PCL Global Payroll Solution was implemented within Oracle's interface — consolidating all data sources into a single global view and automating operations end-to-end.
The implementation included:
- End-to-end data migration ownership for 80,000+ records
- Unique data-driven requirements-to-design approach for 4,300+ employees
- Customised pre-run verification and variance dashboards within Oracle
- Second month of hypercare at no additional cost
