Situation

What drives modern technology to make our lives comfortable? It is the quality materials transformed into high-performance components. From complex aerospace components to the precision required in medical devices, every industry faces the critical challenge of achieving quality and reliable materials for manufacturing processes.

Founded in 1916, Shawmut Corporation addresses this critical challenge by ensuring top-notch materials for manufacturing. With a customer-oriented and product-innovating approach, its mission is to deliver the dynamic advanced materials solutions that exceed industry standards, enhancing comfort and efficiency globally. Headquartered in Massachusetts, Shawmut operates multiple office locations in Michigan, Tennessee, South Carolina, Pennsylvania, New York and Japan. With a century-long commitment to innovation and excellence, today, it has become a premier provider of engineered flexible multi-layer materials, fibers, and lamination processes across the automotive, medical, textile, health and safety, and technical solutions markets.

Struggles and Pains

Shawmut Corporation’s dedication to solving complex material challenges has positioned it as the most trusted supplier of engineered materials solutions globally. To accommodate the needs of its growing clientele, the company grew its workforce multiple folds while still managing its employee lifecycle changes manually. With no automation in place, the IT team of Shawmut Corporation had to create and update employee profiles of more than 500 employees manually in its Active Directory (AD).

As a result, its IT team were wasting countless costly work hours on tedious manual updates, often delaying crucial processes like onboarding and offboarding employees and posing security risks for the organization. Shawmut Corporation realized that it needed an automation solution to streamline its HR and IT processes efficiently.
