| Celonis GmbH | Legacy | Celonis AP Automation | AP Automation | ERP Financial Management | n/a | 2020 | 2020 |
In 2020, Ansys implemented Celonis AP Automation as a central element of its AP Automation program, establishing enterprise process mining and automation capabilities for accounts payable and procure to pay. This implementation was led by the Global Automation Head and tied to a broader Automation Center of Excellence, with year placement signaling the start of the Celonis AP Automation rollout.
The implementation deployed Celonis process mining for P2P and Accounts Payable to identify friction and process variance, combined with an automation stack that included RPA, OCR, NLP, chatbots, Alteryx analytics, and AI/ML tooling. Ansys built the automation infrastructure rapidly, implementing the core automation infra-Architecture within three weeks and provisioning environments to support analytic process automation and continuous mining workflows using Celonis AP Automation.
Operational coverage spanned Finance functions including Record to Report, P2P, Accounts Payable, and Tax, and extended into HR Operations, Payroll, Talent Acquisition, Sales, and Marketing through an Automation Pipeline created with business champions. The program worked directly with ERP, CRM, database management, ServiceNow, and HRIS managers to map process challenges and to layer Celonis AP Automation on top of those application landscapes for discovery and orchestration.
Governance and delivery were formalized through an in-house Automation Center of Excellence and an Automation Governance Model, with centralized ownership for infrastructure, analytics, and process mining. A cross-functional delivery model was established, led by the Global Practice Head and a team of Data Analytics Engineers, Process Mining specialists, RPA and automation developers, infra architects, and process analysts, supported by staff augmentation in on-site and offshore models to control implementation cost.
Outcomes reported from the Celonis AP Automation implementation include a reduction in identified process variance from 62 percent to 15 percent within P2P and Accounts Payable, generating more than 500000 in documented savings. The program delivered over 45 automations within 14 months, saving approximately 15000 hours per year and projecting a 200 percent ROI over three years, while the rapid infra deployment enabled delivery of 10 large automations within eight months.

| SAP | Legacy | SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Marketing | Candidate Relationship Management | HCM | n/a | 2020 | 2020 |
In 2020, Ansys implemented SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Marketing to establish a Candidate Relationship Management capability within its talent acquisition ecosystem. SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Marketing was deployed alongside Ansys's existing SAP SuccessFactors modules, including Employee Central, Time Off, Compensation, PMGM, and RCM, to centralize candidate engagement and talent pipelining.
Implementation work focused on configuring Recruiting Marketing features such as candidate sourcing, nurturing campaigns, talent pool management, employer branding controls, and CRM-driven recruitment workflows, aligned with standard Candidate Relationship Management functional patterns. The deployment included marketing automation for candidate outreach and tracking, configuration of talent segments and campaign templates, and analytics instrumentation to support recruiting reporting obligations.
Integrations were established with SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central to support candidate to hire data flows and with Kronos Time & Attendance to align workforce records, reflecting the systems listed in internal HRIS operations. Governance and operational ownership remained with HRIS staff, where an HRIS Analyst II managed upgrade management, system maintenance, vendor support tickets, escalated employee assistance, compliance reporting, and annual setup for performance, succession, and compensation processes through May 2020. This configuration framed recruiting and HR processes around a unified SAP SuccessFactors recruiting stack and Candidate Relationship Management capabilities.

| Equifax | Legacy | Equifax LawLogix Edge | Case Management | ERP Services and Operations | n/a | 2014 | 2014 |
In 2014, Ansys deployed Equifax LawLogix Edge as a Case Management application to centralize immigration case processing and billing workflows. The implementation positioned Equifax LawLogix Edge to manage immigration invoicing and to ensure charges were attributed to the appropriate business units, aligning case lifecycle tracking with billing controls and document retention policies.
Configuration emphasized case intake, matter and billing setup, document management, and invoicing workflow automation typical of Case Management systems. Equifax LawLogix Edge was configured to support role-based access, matter-level cost capture, and routing rules that assign charges to business unit cost centers and responsible approvers.
Operational scope covered HR, immigration/legal, and finance functions with stakeholder expectations that administrators and finance teams would manage chargeback mappings and invoice approvals. The implementation notes indicate experience with LawLogix was relevant, and familiarity with SAP SuccessFactors was cited as a complementary skill set for coordinating employee data and cost center alignment.
Governance centered on standardizing approval workflows and charge attribution processes, embedding invoicing controls into case workflows to reduce manual billing reconciliation across business units. The deployment approach focused on tightening case-to-cost center linkage within Equifax LawLogix Edge while preserving audit trails for immigration matters managed by HR, legal, and finance.
