In an era when global payroll and HR operations are more complex than ever, Strada—a global leader in people, payroll, and workforce technology—has tightened its grip on the market with a triple SAP certification achievement.
The company has been re-certified for SAP® SuccessFactors® solutions operations and SAP Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) operations, while also earning a new local certification in Spain for SAP’s Business Technology Platform (BTP) operations. Together, the designations underscore Strada’s reputation as one of SAP’s most trusted global partners for HR and payroll transformation.
A Global Vote of Confidence
Each certification, independently assessed by SAP, validates Strada’s security, scalability, and operational excellence across the full SAP HCM suite. The recognition positions Strada as a provider capable of delivering end-to-end managed services that simplify complexity, accelerate transformation, and elevate employee experiences—goals that resonate with multinational employers navigating hybrid workforces and fragmented HR ecosystems.
“This SAP certification reinforces our commitment to operational excellence and transformative HR experiences at scale,” said Matt Bolson, Chief Revenue Officer at Strada. “From delivering seamless payroll across more than 180 countries to deploying AI-driven innovations, our certified operations empower customers to simplify complexity and elevate employee experiences globally.”
Why These Certifications Matter
SAP certifications for operations partners aren’t participation trophies—they’re performance indicators. They validate service providers against SAP’s highest benchmarks for process control, reliability, and innovation. Strada’s latest achievements highlight its evolution from a systems integrator into a strategic enabler of global workforce transformation, with deep expertise across HR, payroll, and business process automation.
The SAP SuccessFactors certification reaffirms Strada’s consistent global delivery model:
-
800+ certified SAP consultants and 590+ deployments supporting 1.7 million employees worldwide.
-
Strada Elevate for SuccessFactors, a preconfigured innovation layer designed to reduce risk, accelerate ROI, and enable scale across Core HR, Payroll, Talent, Time, and Analytics.
-
Continuous optimization through integrated cloud modernization and process improvement support.
The SAP BPO certification underscores Strada’s dominance in managed payroll delivery, offering:
-
Global payroll coverage across 180+ countries via the Strada Global Payroll platform, natively integrated with SAP S/4HANA Private Cloud and SAP SuccessFactors.
-
Embedded payroll experiences for HR teams and employees within SAP SuccessFactors.
-
Strategic HR, payroll, and talent administration handled by 8,000+ professionals in 33 countries, speaking over 25 languages.
Finally, Strada’s SAP BTP operations certification in Spain reflects its push into intelligent platform services—where AI, automation, and analytics converge. The company now manages full lifecycle BTP app operations, including prebuilt solutions like Fast Doc, Cloud Transfer, ID Sync, and Fast Hire—apps that extend SAP functionality while reducing implementation effort.
The Bigger Picture: SAP’s Ecosystem and the HR Tech Race
Strada’s triple certification arrives as SAP doubles down on ecosystem trust—prioritizing certified partners capable of delivering secure, data-rich HR environments for global enterprises. Competitors like Deloitte, Accenture, and Alight are also strengthening their SAP alliances, but Strada’s combination of scale, prebuilt innovation, and direct payroll integration sets it apart in a crowded space.
As organizations seek resilience in the face of rapid digital change, Strada’s certified operations signal reliability, agility, and a focus on measurable outcomes—a rare trifecta in HR and payroll transformation.
What’s Next
Strada will showcase its SAP-certified innovations at SAP Connect Las Vegas 2025, where it joins as a Platinum Sponsor (Booth #960). Expect demos of its AI-enabled payroll experiences, preconfigured HR analytics, and next-generation automation capabilities—all designed to help clients simplify global HR complexity and unlock the full potential of SAP HCM and Payroll.
