Situation Before HCM Cloud

Calfrac is a leading provider of specialized oilfield services with headquarters in Calgary, Canada. Calfrac had been relying on legacy HR applications and sought to improve its core HR, Payroll, and Workforce Management functions. They chose Oracle Cloud HCM to leverage built-in global best practices. Other objectives included:

  • Eliminate HR inefficiencies caused by legacy systems
  • Streamline and provide a best-in-class onboarding experience for new hires
  • Automate approvals and auditing processes with effective reporting & analysis
  • Add user-friendly employee and manager self-service capabilities
  • Maintain a single system for Finance & HCM to eliminate custom interfaces & integrations
  • Automate Costing & Accounting of Payroll with Bank reconciliation

Thank-you for working with the Calfrac HR team to make the rollout of HCM Oracle Fusion a success. We appreciate all of the knowledge and time you have provided to the team over the past 15 months, having someone such as yourself with a solid understanding of the system was critical to our success."
