| C2FO | Legacy | C2FO | AP Automation | ERP | n/a | 2018 | 2018 |
In 2018, Philips implemented C2FO as an AP Automation solution to accelerate supplier payments and de-risk its global supply chain. The deployment was executed as a finance and working-capital initiative with a global scope, going live across 133 countries and onboarding more than 19,750 suppliers in roughly 10 weeks.
The implementation centered on C2FO’s Early Payment Program, embedding early-pay offers into accounts payable workflows and enabling supplier-driven payment acceleration within established invoice and payment cycles. Configuration focused on supplier enrollment and program rule settings to manage offer cadence, eligible payables, and cashflow orchestration consistent with AP Automation functional patterns.
Operational governance emphasized centralized program management by Philips finance teams, supplier enrollment administration, and payment orchestration to support working-capital objectives across regions. The program delivered a rapid go-live cadence and achieved ROI within 30 days, while directly impacting finance, accounts payable, working-capital management, and supply chain risk mitigation through accelerated supplier liquidity.

| Workday | Legacy | Workday Absence Management | Absence and Leave Management | HCM | n/a | 2014 | 2014 |
In 2014, Philips implemented Workday Absence Management. Workday Absence Management operates in the Absence and Leave Management category and was configured to centralize absence requests, leave plans, accrual calculations, and approval workflows to support Philips HR absence administration.
Configuration work focused on standard absence and leave capabilities, including employee self service for time off requests, entitlement and accrual rule sets, manager approval routing, and absence reporting to support payroll reconciliation. The implementation reflected category-aligned functional modules for absence request lifecycle, leave plan definitions, balance tracking, and notification automation within the Workday Absence Management application.
Integrations from Workday to ADP payroll were implemented to transfer absence events and pay-impacting data to payroll processing, tying absence balances and approved leaves into downstream payroll calculations. Governance and operational ownership were maintained by a Subject Matter Expert for Compensation and Absence who coordinated policy mapping, integration testing, and ongoing configuration changes, aligning HR and payroll processes under the Absence and Leave Management solution.

| SAP | Legacy | SAP Concur Travel | Travel Management | ERP Services and Operations | n/a | 2013 | 2013 |
In 2013, Philips implemented SAP Concur Travel for Travel Management. The deployment established an enterprise travel and expense platform used to manage employee travel booking, expense claim submission and approval workflows, and payment reconciliation processes.
Operationally the implementation included first line support responsibilities, with designated support staff answering user questions, resolving travel expense claim issues, and acting on claims lost in the payment system. Functional capabilities emphasized expense claim processing, approvals workflow orchestration, exception handling for payment failures, and employee-facing claim case management.
Implementation governance touched adjacent SAP and IT support processes, with Philips staff processing user authorization requests for most SAP systems to determine and request appropriate access levels. The service management footprint included support of SM7, and active participation in the successor ServiceNow implementation through data validation, application testing to identify functional gaps, and tracking remediation actions.
Day-to-day operational coverage tied Travel Management to finance and travel operations, with support teams handling incident resolution, claim reconciliation escalations, and cross-system access provisioning. SAP Concur Travel at Philips therefore functioned as a centralized travel and expense application integrated into broader SAP authorization and service management workflows.
