PLEASANTON, Calif., Oct. 30,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Workday, Inc. (NASDAQ:
WDAY), a leading provider of solutions to help organizations manage
their people and money, today announced city and county governments
across the United States are
increasingly turning to Workday – with AI at the core of its
platform – to attract and retain a diverse workforce and make more
informed, data-driven financial decisions.
"I am delighted that the City is embarking on such a substantial
project, replacing multiple systems with the all-encompassing
Workday platform," said Kavita
Deepak, CIO, City of Irvine,
California. "Over the past decade, manual processes, lengthy
report generation, and a lack of system integrations have
highlighted the need for this project and The City aims to fully
leverage Workday capabilities, propelling us into a new era of
technological advancement."
This year's surge in public sector wins builds on a robust
customer base that continues to expand its Workday relationships,
with existing customers such as City of
Arlington, Texas; City of
Baltimore, Maryland; and Salt Lake
City, Utah all adding additional solutions to their current
suites in recent months to support their evolving HR and finance
needs.
Attracting and Retaining a Diverse Workforce
An
estimated 81% of state and local governments are actively
recruiting new employees as they struggle with the high rate of
retirement, while simultaneously working to attract new talent,
manage hybrid working models, meet diversity, equity, and inclusion
(DEI) goals, and support employee wellbeing. Through the power of
solutions like Workday Human Capital Management (HCM), Workday
Peakon Employee Voice, and VIBE™, Workday customers unlock valuable
workforce data to reduce time to hire and strengthen employee
retention while keeping pace with change.
Making More Informed, Data-Driven Financial
Decisions
State and local government leaders face a rapidly
changing funding and budgetary landscape. Legacy systems,
fragmented financial models, and siloed data hinder their ability
to move quickly and direct resources where they are needed most.
The Workday platform – powered by Illuminate, the next generation
of Workday AI – which also includes Workday Financial Management
and Workday Adaptive Planning, empowers government leaders to make
informed, data-driven financial decisions while boosting efficiency
and minimizing risk.
"State and local governments need a trusted partner to help
manage their people and budgets in the face of change," said
Michael Hofherr, senior vice
president and group general manager for industry, Workday. "With
Workday, public sector customers have realized significant
reductions in the time to fill open positions and onboard new
employees, which improves the candidate experience, helps attract
top talent, reduces costs, supports continued services delivery,
and minimizes productivity losses."
