    During the implementation we encountered large data discrepancies moving from our prior HCM to Workday. These discrepancies took almost 6 months to fully correct and flesh out. We also attempted to maintain our prior and current HCM platforms simultaneously during the transition. This was a major headache and did not provide a benefit. I would highly recommend a “clean” break and a quiet period where no changes are allowed in the systems. This would allow for a data review and a clean upload. I also would highly recommend having specific structure around compensation plans and job profiles fully completed before transitioning.

    1. Out of box reporting is a starting point, but will seldom meet your needs completely. Have people and time available to provide reporting.
    2. User training will take less time than you think; but train your HR team well
    3. Ensure a good ongoing governance process for changes post go live

    If you’re going to do a Workday Ready Deployment ensure your internal team has extensive experience on Workday. Additionally, if your company is a global company be aware that the Workday Ready team only handles US/Canada.

    Workday Ready will not do Time off Plans, Payroll, Reporting, etc. for any countries outside US/Canada.

    What “Lessons Learned” would you provide to others implementing with this partner / software? What else would you tell us about your project experience?
    I would recommend Workday to other people. Workday has a lot of efficiencies. However, I would recommend businesses consult with other companies that have implemented to ask questions, and companies be open to change management in processes for integrating them into Workday rather than build their processes directly as they are in the system. One example for our implementation was the job change process was built to have many stakeholders involved in approvals, and we were not aware how delayed this would make our organization in efficiently processing and approving promotions, job changes, etc. We still have yet to review the many processes that were implemented due to these inefficiencies. Also, it would have been good for Workday to have direct consultants partner with our organizations to simplification of processes prior to just putting a process that may work out of a system in place, directly into a system. Change management, really thinking through key factors such as time investment, speed, accuracy, and simplification of processes into the system are areas that needs more focus prior to implementation.

    What “Lessons Learned” would you provide to others implementing with this partner / software? What else would you tell us about your project experience?
    In my experience, while implementing any large scale systems change specifically where there are multiple geographies involved, it is important to keep it simple and launch one module at a time, instead of launching the entire tool in one go. Measure the success of each module implementation by monitoring progress on usage of the tool and its effectiveness in delivering the objectives.
    It is also important that the provider has local reach and experience for both pre and post implementation support, specially where language could be a barrier.
