Connecting Australia’s mid-sized businesses with more than just a HCM solution
When it comes to modernising HR and payroll, mid-sized organisations face a unique set of challenges: limited internal resources, growing complexity, and a need for rapid results without enterprise-level budgets or timelines.

That’s where PeopleHub for SAP SuccessFactors comes in. PeopleHub connects Australia’s mid-sized businesses not just with a packaged solution, but with an SAP-recognised approach that delivers fast, simplified outcomes, backed by real implementation expertise to bring it to life.
This isn’t about having another system. It’s about having the right system, implemented by people who understand your business, and designed to scale with your needs.
What is an SAP-Qualified Partner-Packaged Solution (QPPS)?
An SAP-Qualified Partner-Packaged Solution (QPPS) is a pre-defined, pre-configured offering developed by certified SAP partners. These solutions combine SAP’s leading software with a partner’s industry expertise, implementation services, and proven methodology, all within a defined scope, timeline, and pricing structure.
SAP-qualified partner-packaged solutions are specifically designed to help mid-sized organisations accelerate digital transformation with lower risk, faster results, and a clear path to value.
Why it matters for mid-sized businesses:
- Grow your business with best-practice processes built into the solution
- Empower your people through intuitive, modern tools
- Improve operations without the cost and complexity of traditional enterprise rollouts
Core advantages of a HCM QPPS:
- Rapid implementation
Delivered using a proven methodology with predefined timelines and scope. - Predictable delivery
