Situation

In 2002, a trio of trailblazers had a bold vision to revolutionize the fitness industry. They founded Self Esteem Brands with a mission to make health and wellness accessible to everyone anytime, anywhere. With innovative concepts like Anytime Fitness, they shattered the traditional gym model and empowered individuals to prioritize their well-being on their terms. Today, Self Esteem Brands is a prominent franchise company, home to multiple cutting-edge brands such as The Bar Method, Waxing the City, and Basecamp Fitness, catering to diverse needs and lifestyles.

Struggles and Pains

As Self Esteem Brands, a global conglomerate, expanded its portfolio through strategic acquisitions, it witnessed rapid growth in its employee base. From its inception with just one brand and a handful of employees, Self Esteem Brands has acquired multiple brands and established offices in various regions, resulting in a workforce of hundreds of employees spread across 39 countries and all seven continents (including Antarctica).

Now, with this huge workforce, Self Esteem Brands was bound to face many challenges if it relied on manual interventions of every employee lifecycle event update. And that’s what was happening. As Self Esteem Brands started expanding and acquiring new brands between 2005 and 2015, synchronizing employee data and managing accounts, access privileges, and profiles became cumbersome and time-consuming. Sysadmins were not equipped to handle the scale and complexity of managing employee profiles from UKGPro to Active Directory (AD), so Self Esteem Brands needed to find a solution to automate the process across different locations, roles, and organizational structures.
