Business continuity depends on more than just hiring the right people. It also depends on preparing staff to perform critical roles as the organization undergoes change. Without a structured succession process, leadership changes and unexpected layoffs are more likely to lead to disruptions.

SAP SuccessFactors Succession & Development helps organizations build that strategy. It gives managers the tools to identify future leaders, evaluate readiness for key positions, and guide employee development with structured plans instead of ad hoc decisions.

Instead of relying on spreadsheets or individual managers' opinions, decisions are based on employee data collected across the SAP SuccessFactors suite. This makes succession planning more consistent while giving employees a clearer view of possible career opportunities within the organization.

Strengthen leadership continuity

Develop a pipeline of qualified successors for key positions, so leadership transitions become easier to manage and less disruptive.

Improve talent decisions

Base succession planning and talent reviews on consistent employee data instead of manual assessments.

Increase internal mobility

Give employees clearer opportunities to move into new roles while helping managers identify internal candidates.

Reduce administrative work

Replace spreadsheets and disconnected processes with a centralized approach to succession planning.

Improve workforce planning

Understand where leadership gaps exist and make workforce decisions using current talent data.

Build a more resilient organization

Prepare for organizational changes with succession plans that evolve alongside your business.

SAP SuccessFactors Succession & Development isn't designed to operate in isolation. It pulls in data from across your whole HR landscape — including employee profiles, performance reviews, learning history, and recruiting. This ties everything together so succession planning and employee growth happen in the same workflow.

SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central: The platform directly shares current employee and organizational data. This means your succession plans automatically remain accurate as your company changes.
SAP SuccessFactors Performance & Goals: The solution bridges the gap between evaluation and growth. Performance metrics feed right into development planning rather than remaining isolated.
SAP SuccessFactors Learning: Development plans can be linked directly to courses and learning activities, making it easier for employees to prepare for future roles.
SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting: Internal and external recruitment become part of a single long-term talent management strategy, rather than separate processes.
SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP): The platform serves as an integration layer. If standard connectors don't support your specific architecture, BTP handles custom integrations to external systems.

FAQ

How do I determine which positions should be included in a succession plan?

Not every position requires a succession plan. Most organizations start with business-critical positions, leadership positions, or positions where replacing experienced employees will be difficult. During the discovery phase, we help determine which positions should be prioritized.

Can employees see their development plans?

The security model relies entirely on role-based permissions. Access is controlled through role-based permissions. Organizations decide what employees, managers, and HR teams can view. Confidential succession pools and talent assessments stay behind strict access gates for approved HR and management profiles.

Can we use an existing competency model?

Yes, existing assets are reusable. Your current competency models, job profiles, and development data can be integrated directly into SuccessFactors, eliminating the need to create them from scratch.

Do all talent management modules need to be implemented at the same time?

No. Many companies are gradually implementing SAP SuccessFactors. Succession & Development can be implemented as a standalone project or in conjunction with other modules, depending on your priorities and your existing HR system.
