In 2014, Wacker Chemie implemented Lucanet Tax Compliance and Reporting to establish a centralized tax portal for Tax Management. The deployment provisioned a GlobalTaxCenter tax portal that centralizes tax compliance and reporting workflows for the company’s German tax operations.
Lucanet Tax Compliance and Reporting is used to collect tax data centrally, drive portal-based workflows for statutory tax filing, and produce auditor-ready documentation. Functional usage documented via the tax portal includes centralized tax data collection modules, workflow orchestration for filing and review, and reporting and documentation capabilities exposed to tax preparers and reviewers. The company’s tax portal is described as powered by Lucanet GlobalTaxCenter, which maps these capabilities directly to corporate tax and filing processes.
The portal is linked to Lucanet/AMANA support, indicating an integration point for platform support and operational continuity. Operational scope is focused on Germany with the GlobalTaxCenter portal operating as the control point for tax operations and submission workflows. Governance was reoriented to portal-based submission and documentation, centralizing collector and reviewer roles within the tax function and standardizing compliance workflows.

In 2019, Wacker Chemie implemented SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central as its Core HR platform. The SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central deployment centralized employee master data and organizational structures for Wacker Chemie’s HR organization, covering an employee population of 14,900 and operating from its Germany headquarters. The initiative established SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central as the authoritative cloud record while aligning with Wacker Chemie’s broader SAP technology platform.

Configuration work focused on organizational hierarchies, position control and employee master data schemas, and role based access models to support Core HR processes such as hire to retire workflows and organizational reporting.
Architecturally the deployment followed a hybrid integration approach connecting SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central to on premises SAP technology components and middleware.
