The major parts manufacturer for Toyota trucks keeps the assembly line running smoothly with automated employee lifecycle management from Hire2Retire.
Hino Motors is renowned in Japan for producing the nation’s top-selling heavy-duty trucks. But across the Pacific Ocean in the United States, Hino Motors Manufacturing USA also plays an important part in making some of the best-selling trucks on the market. That’s because as a Toyota Group company, Hino manufactures axles, knuckles, and suspension parts for the Toyota Tundra, Tacoma, Sequoia, and FJ Cruiser. With an assembly plant based in West Virginia, a manufacturing facility in Arkansas and a parts distribution center in California, Hino’s USA division has an automotive footprint from coast to coast.
However, Hino was facing a serious problem behind the scenes: their employees were retaining access to key systems for extended periods after termination. This not only created cybersecurity risks for Hino but also caused compliance issues for the auto manufacturer. After investigating, Hino found that the root of their problem was an inefficient employee lifecycle management process. Hino was relying on Sysadmins to manually create, synchronize, and provision employee profiles between ADP, AD, and Entra ID (Azure AD). The manual workload was overburdening these Sysadmins and leading to delays, oversights, and human errors. The effects weren’t limited to poor termination security practices, either. New hires had to wait days to be correctly provisioned with access to key systems, and a disorganized GAL caused confusion about who worked in each division and location. Hino needed to address this problem at the source to not only stay compliant but optimize their employee lifecycle management process.
In the end, Hire2Retire has proven to be the comprehensive solution to all of Hino’s problems. By fully integrating ADP with AD and Entra ID (Azure AD) in a Hybrid AD setup, Hire2Retire automates the entire lifecycle management process. New hires have their employee profiles created, synchronized with AD, and provisioned with system access based on their role before they walk in the door, leading to a superior “First Day at Work” experience. Hire2Retire also organizes Hino’s GAL and keeps employee profiles consistent and accurate. But most of all, Hire2Retire’s automated and timely access removal ensured secure terminations so Hino could stay compliant and continue to power the American trucking industry.
