The Challenge
Our leading financial services client required standardized HR business processes to support future growth and decided to implement Workday. The client partnered with Workday directly for their implementation and provided executive sponsorship, subject matter expertise, and business/data analysis. However, they lacked expertise in project management, business analysis, and change management.
