  SAP Americas, Newtown Square, has hired Yoh Talent Solutions, a division of privately-held Day & Zimmerman, Philadelphia, to run its outsourcing HR. "We'll manage all the contract labor they use in the U.S. and Canada for professional-level people," said Yoh Talent president Don Hanson.
  How big a deal is this? The companies won't say how many people, or how much money.
  SAP joins AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals in Wilmington and PJM Internconnection in King of Prussia as Yoh clients for the service.
“They have a technology platform, Yoh Exchange,” that matches contractors with jobs within the company, “and they showed us they could come in here and significantly improve our perfromance,” said Joel Capperella, senior director of business development at SAP.
  “This is really a procurement issue, but it’s different from buying reams of paper,” Capperella added. Well, sure -- it’s about people.
