Payroll & HR
Region Östergötland employs approximately 15,000 people and is responsible for healthcare services, regional development and public transport within the region. To support a large and complex workforce, the organisation recognised the need to modernise its HR and payroll processes and replace a system that had been in use since 1998. Following a procurement process, SD Worx was selected in early 2024 as the provider of the region's new payroll system.
The challenge
After operating with the same core system for more than two decades, Region Östergötland needed a modern HR and payroll solution capable of meeting current requirements. The organisation was looking for greater flexibility, scalability and improved integrations between systems. Existing processes involved significant manual administration, including transferring scheduling changes between systems and duplicate registration of information. The region also needed solutions that could support multiple professions and business areas while allowing local adaptations without fundamentally changing the system.
The solution
SD Worx was selected through a public procurement process to provide a new HR and payroll solution designed to support the region's future needs. The solution was chosen for its functionality, usability, implementation approach, integration capabilities and ability to support a modern way of working. The platform is intended to provide effective integrations, easier access to HR data, greater scalability and automation opportunities that can reduce manual processes across the organisation.
The results
As implementation progresses, Region Östergötland expects significant operational improvements through automation and integration. The organisation anticipates eliminating duplicate work related to scheduling changes and reducing administration associated with workforce planning. The new solution is expected to create a smoother hiring process, deliver substantial time savings and provide a flexible, scalable platform that can continue to support the region's future HR and payroll needs.
Key Outcomes
- Expected reduction in manual administration related to scheduling.
- Elimination of duplicate registration and duplicate work processes.
- Improved automation and integrations between systems.
- More efficient recruitment and employment processes.
- Flexible and scalable HR and payroll platform for future requirements.
- Modernised HR and payroll environment replacing a legacy system that had been in place since 1998.
