An Overview ofthe Workday Project Last Updated February 2011
Today we will: Share driving forces leading to the decision to partner with Workday. Review some of Workday’s product features. Provide an update on the Workday Project. Address your questions and comments. Today’s Goals
Background Information: Driving Forces Why are we undergoing a major system project? What are the driving forces?
Background Information: Driving Forces Today: Data access … Aligned systems … Less transaction time
Background Information: Driving Forces Today: Cornell is about Learning, Discovery, Engagement • Many hands involved – duplication of effort • Multiple disconnected systems – PeopleSoft, HR Online, Leave Accrual System, Taleo, custom shadow systems, etc. • Decision makers lacking the information (ex. Salary Improvement Program) • Costly to operate Data access … Aligned systems … Less transaction time
Background Information: Driving Forces 1 Data access: Cornell community members have real time information at their desktops to answer their questions. 2 Aligned systems: There is one system for all HR/Payroll activities (hiring, performance reviews, etc.) that “talks” to other Cornell systems (Taleo, Kuali, etc.) 3 Less “transaction” time: Resources are shifted from administrative/data entry tasks to enhanced support for faculty and staff.
