From Fragmented HR Data to Automation: A Health Wellness Giant's HR Transformation Using Microsoft Fabric

Company Overview

A global leader in wellness and personal care, this 90-year-old Ayurvedic enterprise operates across 100+ countries, employing over 5,000 professionals. With a diverse portfolio spanning pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, baby care, and personal wellness, their FY24 revenue crossed INR 3,000 crores (~$360 million). Yet, rapid growth brought rising complexity, especially in managing their expanding workforce and global HR operations.


The HR Puzzle: When Data Becomes a Barrier

The organization’s HR data was scattered across multiple systems—SAP, SuccessFactors, Excel—making it hard to derive meaningful, timely insights.

Challenges included:

  • No unified view for HR KPIs and workforce reports

  • Inability to analyze critical metrics like attrition, replacement cost, or hiring timelines in real time

  • Over 200+ hours/month spent on repetitive manual reporting

  • Inconsistent data across departments, delaying decisions

  • Lack of alignment with Annual Operating Plan (AOP) targets

These inefficiencies created a reactive HR environment, with strategy suffering from limited foresight and fragmented information.

To overcome the challenges, the company aimed to:

  • Consolidate all HR data sources into a single governed platform

  • Enable real-time access to workforce insights
