Introduction. In a rapidly changing world, becoming the ultimate destination workplace is more critical than ever. Given the changes in the way we work, how workplaces and workforces are organized, and the relationship between workers and AI technology, organizations have a rare opportunity to rethink how a people data platform that elevates HR and payroll can help them master the future of work.
What does the right technology provider look like for your business today? What role does AI play? How about a few months or years from now? How will the right AI platform help you elevate your people and payroll? With so many organizations being stuck with outdated human capital management (HCM) and payroll technology, where do you begin? Informed by hundreds of forward-looking Workday customers, this guide is designed to help you identify your business drivers, refine your HCM and payroll solution selection criteria, and make the business case for change.
4 HCM and Payroll Buyer’s Guide
Getting started. Define business drivers. Embarking on the journey to identify a new AI platform for HR and payroll can be both overwhelming and exciting. But before jumping in, it is important to first define the business drivers and understand how technology can support your business initiatives. To do this—and to avoid missing critical criteria—it’s crucial to spend time rigorously defining and validating the business challenges your HR and payroll systems should help resolve.
Start by understanding your desired state. Three steps will help you do this:
1 Define your goal and desired outcome:
• Map out where your organization wants to be in six months to a year
• Evaluate how changes might support future business plans across HR, payroll, and workforce management
2 Simplify the way you work that must also be addressed across the organization:
• Consider simplifying your technology footprint to reduce your administrative support burden while maintaining compliance
• Reduce manual processes and unify cross-functional processes for consistency and a frictionless workflow
• Identify specific areas where the organization can benefit from data-driven workforce management decisions and tracking of global labor costs
• Identify specific areas where the organization can benefit from contextual insight and credible data-driven workforce management decisions, gaining efficiencies and reducing costs
3 Map out your organization’s objectives and consider both internal and external factors, such as:
• Adapting to changing market conditions
• Gaining visibility into the health of the business
• Exploring new markets or lines of business
• Assessing external factors or competitive pressures
Identify business requirements. Now that your business outcomes are defined, it’s time to dig deeper into your business requirements so you can set your project up for success.
Define the project scope: Determine the operational or technical challenges you need to address within your project scope, including potential external and internal constraints that could hinder the success of the project.
Assemble a cross-functional team: Include people from HR, payroll, finance, operations, and IT to not only get a complete picture of the problem but to also find ways to solve it together.
Determine your project goals, objectives, and ideal outcomes: Pinpoint your business strategy, what you’d like to achieve, and where you’d like to be not only when the project is complete but also in the years to come.
Prioritize your business outcomes: Focus on your top three outcomes and identify areas you want to avoid.
There are also a number of questions to ask internally. See our Persona Questions and Use Case Scenarios below to help you prepare.
5 HCM and Payroll Buyer’s Guide
Consider system options. Once you’ve defined your goals, priorities, and challenges, work with IT to understand what type of technology would benefit the business. To compare each vendor’s ability to meet your HR, payroll, and workforce management requirements, consider how your organization currently operates as well as how those processes may evolve. How does the ability to continuously plan aid in business operations today and into the future? Can you seamlessly execute on those plans across the organization while analyzing business outcomes to make operational adjustments? It’s important to understand the technology options based on how you hope to operate in the future and how your decisions potentially impact your business and your people.
There are a variety of technology solutions available for evaluation. Whether you consider an AI platform offering a single cloud solution for HCM/HR and payroll or engage with service bureaus, many solutions look similar on the surface. As you dig deeper, you will uncover unique approaches to data, cross-functional processes, analytics, services, support, and deployment. Learn more about your options below.
Consider these four factors to help determine which vendors to evaluate: Strategy: Identify vendors that will give your leaders and managers more visibility into all
corners of the business (people, finance, operations) and enable a more thoughtful view of the organization, providing real-time and contextual insight for data-driven decision-making.
AI philosophy: Ensure privacy and data protection, act with integrity when leveraging AI to realize significant productivity gains, empower teams to make smarter decisions, and continuously optimize entire business functions.
Operations: Ensure that your future system alleviates administrative burdens and dependency on tools such as Microsoft Excel®, shortens processing time, and introduces automation while reducing friction in core processing (for example, hire to pay).
Technology: Consider consolidating multiple systems into one, simplifying integrations, and leveraging a seamless update process that minimizes downtime. Choose tools and technologies that will help reduce the burden on IT.

Deployment considerations. To get the value and results you want, it’s important to get detailed information on the vendor’s deployment approach and methodology, how to engage in each step, and what to expect once your solution is live. Consider the following:
Deployment approach and methodology: Choose a vendor that can get you up and running in a predictable time frame with minimal risk. Look for a proven methodology that includes:
• Feature-rich, fixed-scope packages based on common deployments
• A view into what your data will look like in production
• A flexible and simplified experience throughout
• Resources to get you ready for go-live and beyond
• Stakeholders that are involved in your entire evaluation journey
Ensuring a successful deployment: Select a solution that delivers a smooth deployment, fast time to value, early mitigation of integration issues, and the support you need to leverage the capabilities of your new software. Make sure it offers:
• Consistent deployment across projects and products
• Collective expertise from prior deployments
• Early identification and mitigation of potential issues and risks
• Guidance and options throughout the project
• A single point of contact during the deployment
• Testing support to ensure integrations are complete and successful end to end before go-live
Clarity about total cost: If a vendor is clear about pricing up front, you’ll have the insight you need to assess how to invest in their solution. Many vendors charge additional fees after you’ve already signed on. A solution that appears less expensive initially could cost more over time. Make sure you aren’t caught off guard by:
• Costs outside of subscription and licensing
• Reporting fees for changes and custom reports
• Fees for extra services and consultations
Deployment management: No matter who manages the deployment, a vendor should be able to make deployment partner and services recommendations and stay engaged to ensure your success. Ecosystems and professional services teams can vary widely. It’s important to find ones with:
• Global consultants in the regions where you do business
• Tight alignment with internal teams to troubleshoot issues and escalate challenges
• Regularly trained and certified service partners and consultants to manage upgrades and new products
• Expertise in your industry
• Guidance to help you set up and train your internal team
• The experience to get you up and running quickly and effectively
11 HCM and Payroll Buyer’s Guide
Services and support to ensure customer success: Choosing a vendor with a solution that can grow with and support your business is critical. To ensure you choose a vendor that offers a consistently excellent customer experience from the beginning of the sales cycle through deployment and production, ask if they provide:
• Service plans: Look for a range of services that can be consumed easily on demand, addressing different production stages and your teams’ learning and engagement styles.
• Customer success managers: Make sure you have access to an advocate dedicated to helping you navigate available resources to help you meet your current and future business goals.
• Training and education: The right training and education will help your teams get the most out of the system.
• Customer enablement: One-on-one and one-to-many consulting services can help your teams use and administer more effectively and adopt the right features and functionality to support your objectives.
• Collaboration with peers: The ability to connect with experts or other customers to share ideas, ask questions, and learn best practices will not only deepen your knowledge but also help maximize your investment.
• Support: Get timely resolutions to unexpected issues that may arise.
• Change management: Look for programs, plans, and resources to guide, equip, and support end users in successfully adopting the solution.
When you invest time and effort in finding the right technology provider and deployment partner, you’re setting the foundation for a smooth deployment and long-term success.
Making the business case for change. Now that you have completed your evaluation process, it’s time to secure approval and financial support from leadership.
1 Make your recommendation: Create an overview of your recommendation with key challenges, benefits, pros and cons, and a clear analysis of the risk of doing nothing. Include feedback from the evaluation process from market- and industry-specific customer references. Make sure to outline the initial cost of deployment, contract length and pricing, internal cost, cost/ benefit analysis, and estimated return on investment.
2 Review the transition process: Prepare for additional questions that may arise around implementation, transition strategy, and risk mitigation. Request resources for the implementation and transition teams. Take note of other internal projects that could affect the schedules, cost, or scope of the implementation.
3 Review the evaluation process: Highlight the steps you took in your vendor evaluation and selection process, including the business challenges that helped you determine your requirements and the vendors that you considered.
Conclusion. Why make the change now? In today’s environment, organizations can no longer afford to rely on outdated, disjointed systems as they strive to launch new business models, redeploy workers, and support workers’ shifting expectations.
