JG Summit Holdings is scaling up its digital systems to better manage its 21,000 employees, deepening its partnership with HR tech platform Darwinbox.
The expanded collaboration is part of the conglomerate’s broader digital shift to streamline HR data, automate workflows, and align talent management with business growth.
Management’s view
“At JG Summit, we recognize that our people are at the heart of everything we do,” said Lance Y. Gokongwei, president and CEO of JG Summit Holdings.
“Their contributions are vital to our continued success, and we are committed to equipping them with the best tools to help them thrive. Our expanded partnership with Darwinbox empowers us to harness AI-driven automation and insights, enabling greater efficiency and effectiveness as we accelerate our business objectives and transform the way we support and grow our talent.”
More personal worker development
The partnership integrates HR operations across JG Summit’s portfolio—from manufacturing to aviation—giving leaders clearer visibility over workforce data.
Gulliver Go, chief human resources officer, said the system will help personalize employee development while easing repetitive HR work.
“This also supports our talent agenda by empowering our HR teams with AI-powered insights that provide customized approaches to develop and retain talent. It will significantly reduce the administrative workload of our HR teams through automation and smart workflows,” he said.
Darwinbox expands PH footprint
Darwinbox co-founder Rohit Chennamaneni said the company’s localized platform supports Philippine-specific policies, strengthening its foothold in the market.
With over 1,000 enterprise clients globally, Darwinbox remains the only Asian firm recognized as a Challenger in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Cloud HCM Suites.
