Levi Strauss & Company Gets Fit with the Best SAP Resource Hires

Scope

In 2003, Levi Strauss embarked on a new global ERP implementation.

They planned to replace existing legacy systems with SAP’s AFS solution—from scratch.

With no in-house SAP expertise, Levi needed to hire a new team to help with implementation and to support its SAP systems integrator.

Challenge

Levi called on Savantis to identify qualified SAP candidates for functional, technical, and leadership roles.

In response, Savantis found qualified SAP candidates who also had the relevant retail and apparel industry expertise.

Result

The rest is history.

"Over the year and a half that Levi Strauss was implementing SAP, we worked with quite a number of external recruiting vendors. 

Savantis was the clear leader of the pack.  Of the group, their working style was the most collaborative and accessible. They provided the best candidates by far—and ultimately, the best hires on the team.

Where other vendors might have submitted 20 candidates and we chose to interview maybe 1 or 2, Savantis was spot-on with their recommendations. 

We knew that if they put a candidate forward, that candidates would be perfectly qualified for the role.  Hands-down, we had the most hires from their pool of candidates. 

Savantis is very well networked and knowledgeable about the SAP community. In fact, when we shut our program down, we partnered with them to help our employees get back into the market after being laid off from our company. 

Savantis is certainly tapped into the best of the best, SAP-talent-wise.”
