For more than a decade, SAP Workforce Analytics (WFA) has been at the heart of strategic HR reporting for many global businesses - providing the foundation for data-driven decisions and strategic workforce insights.
Now, SAP People Intelligence (also known as "People Intelligence in Business Data Cloud") is redefining what’s possible. As SAP’s next-generation strategic analytics platform, it combines advanced analytics, predictive capabilities, and a far more intuitive user experience - designed to help HR leaders and People Analytics teams take their insight strategy to the next level.
The question for every current WFA customer is no longer if you’ll make the transition - but how to make it deliver even more strategic value.
SAP’s move to People Intelligence reflects a major evolution in how businesses want to use HR data.
Where WFA provided structured, predefined reporting, People Intelligence introduces flexibility, deeper analytics, and predictive capabilities built on modern SAP technology.
This change isn’t simply a platform upgrade — it’s an opportunity to rethink your entire HR analytics strategy:
Modern architecture and integration with SAP Business Data Cloud.
Faster, smarter insights for HR, Finance, and business leaders.
Improved user experience designed for wider adoption across your organisation.
In short: it’s the next generation of People Analytics, designed for a more connected, data-driven future of work.
For SAP SuccessFactors customers, moving from Workforce Analytics to People Intelligence will require careful preparation — across technology, processes, and people.
Key areas of focus include:
Technical architecture and integrations – ensuring your data foundations are ready for SAP’s new platform.
Reporting and insight strategy – aligning your analytics capabilities with business priorities.
Change management and adoption – preparing your teams to make the most of the new tools and features.
Every organisation’s roadmap will look different, but the principles are the same: success depends on planning your transition strategically, not just technically.
