Over the course of the past two and a half years, many businesses have been affected greatly by the immediate need to digitize the workforce and shift priorities as the pandemic evolved. Many Human Resource (HR) departments were forced to reinvent their processes and create consistency among their organization. ULTA Beauty was one of those businesses, and in doing so, chose to employ OpenText Extended ECM for SAP SuccessFactors to provide standardization of documents, simplify legal and taxation processes, minimize outsourcing, and allow the HR team to focus on issues that matter.

At OpenText World 2022, Mark J. Barrenechea and Mike Savage, Vice President, Total Rewards and Human Resources Information Systems (HRIS) at ULTA Beauty, will take the stage to discuss how technology has helped businesses evolve into the digital era. With the pandemic forcing the hand of many organizations, ULTA Beauty took the steps necessary to ensure its digital transition was fluid, efficient, effective, and most importantly, fit into the overall ULTA Beauty roadmap.

"With Human Resources playing a critical role in helping organizations navigate change, ULTA Beauty chose to employ OpenText to facilitate a seamless transition into digitization and automation of internal processes," said Mike Savage, Vice President, Total Rewards and Human Resources Information Systems (HRIS) at ULTA Beauty. "Leveraging OpenText and its solutions makes it possible for ULTA Beauty to streamline our many internal processes, simplifying, reinforcing and strengthening our overall operations."

"OpenText is a leader in automating and digitizing HR information processes to support the workforce of the future. Working with ULTA Beauty has allowed the company to begin to change the way it connects and engages with its associates," said Mark J. Barrenechea, CEO & CTO at OpenText. "We are thrilled to provide ULTA Beauty with a streamlined HR experience that assists in storage, uploading and access of all HR content and employee records, all while ensuring information is all stored securely in the cloud."

Registration is now open for the three-day interactive event being hosted live from The Venetian Hotel Resort Las Vegas from October 4-6.
