KOLKATA, INDIA: The Park Group of Hotels announced that it has gone live on SAP ERP - Human Capital Management (HCM) solution in its quest to optimize Human Resource Management and bring about standardization and integration across the organization. The solution was implemented by TCS across The Park units in Delhi, Bangalore, Kolkata, Chennai and Vizag. With this, the hotel chain becomes the first company in the Indian hospitality sector to go-live on SAP. 

SAP was selected to provide a flexible and reliable HCM solution for managing and improving the range of transactional, tactical, and strategic processes associated with human resources.
