Henkel's strategy team needed to grow an MVP into a global ERP-linked platform supporting over 24 business units. Internal know-how and capacity were limited. Vendors in Germany were too costly. To succeed, Henkel needed fast deployment, a strong price-quality ratio, and reliable experts who would integrate smoothly with their internal teams. Challenges they've faced:
Henkel needed people who would communicate clearly, align with POs, and stay long enough to own outcomes.
OTM delivered a phased team of compliance-ready IT experts under the Time & Materials model. What began with five specialists quickly scaled to 17 senior professionals, covering every stage of platform development:
Our experts joined Henkel's teams as long-term partners, not just external hands. They flew in for workshops, contributed ideas, and embedded into the team culture, which became the basis for retention and delivery quality.
Retention
contract extensions
for longest-serving
Speed
to first CV,
~3 weeks to onboarding
Savings
lower cost versus German onshore vendors
Efficiency
CVs to 1 hire, ~60 minutes of client manager time per hire
Impact

These results are powered by cultural fit: clear communication with POs, workshop cadence, and experts who stayed to see features through.
