SAP to acquire workforce data firm TechWolf

SAP to acquire workforce data firm TechWolf

- German software company SAP SAPG.DE said on Tuesday it had agreed to buy TechWolf, a Belgian company that analyses workforce data to map employees' skills and tasks, for an undisclosed sum.

The deal gives SAP a view of its customers' workforces that its own HR software lacks, at a time when companies reorganise around AI and need to know which skills they have and which they are losing.

  • SAP expects to close the acquisition in the fourth quarter, subject to regulatory approval

  • It plans to make TechWolf the core of its workforce software for planning hiring, retraining and reorganisation

  • TechWolf will stay independent under CEO Andreas De Neve, keep its Ghent headquarters and continue to serve non-SAP customers

  • The head of SAP's autonomous software division, Manoj Swaminathan, said TechWolf's data will make SAP's AI assistant cheaper to run and better at answering questions

  • SAP said the two companies already share customers, but named none and gave no figures
