Story
Health Care work at Merck KGaA spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in Germany. Payroll processing was splitting across regional habits. Payroll teams asked for a shared way to run pay operations without freezing local judgment.
ADP (ADP Lyric HCM) is what they standardized on. ADP provides payroll, HR, tax, and workforce management software used by employers to run pay and people operations. Merck KGaA uses it as the system of record for payroll processing, with payroll teams as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
Leaders get a picture they can actually walk. Teams get fewer mystery statuses. The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
