New Relationship with Innovative HR Technology Provider Workday

With current operational challenges making unique demands on HR's time and expertise, HR service delivery is one area that organizations can't afford to get wrong. The effective and efficient delivery of programs is critical in sustaining an organization's focus during uncertain economic times — and HR technology sits at the heart of any solution.

Among the newest technology solutions is Workday, an enterprise resource planning offering that leverages leading edge technologies and a "Software as a Service" (SaaS) model to make its solution more accessible — and affordable — than traditional HR systems are. Towers Perrin is delighted to have forged a services provider relationship with this exciting new HR service delivery solution.

Like traditional HR technology offerings, SaaS allows users to own their data, run their own processes and do their own data entry, but they access the software via the Internet, thus eliminating the need for clients to license, install and maintain/upgrade the software. Because of this, Workday clients benefit from many features not often available in the traditional ERP space, including:

  • Reduced up-front license fees and a predictable ongoing cost
  • Elimination of the need to install and maintain the software
  • Provision of next generation capabilities and user interface, including employee and manager self-service

As an official Workday Services Provider, Towers Perrin offers our clients consulting and implementation services around all aspects of Workday. Our services to clients considering or implementing the Workday solution include:

  • Business case development
  • Requirements definition
  • Implementation of Workday's HR product line
  • Consulting services to support the implementations, including process redesign, change management and HR organizational consulting.
