University Will Leverage Workday AI Embedded
Solutions to Drive Impact Across The Organisation and Unlock New
Levels of Innovation
LONDON, Sept. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Workday Inc.
(NASDAQ: WDAY), a leading provider of solutions to help
organisations manage their people and money, today announced
that University of Hull will leverage Workday Financial
Management and Workday Human Capital Management (HCM) to meet its
digital transformation goals. The Workday platform will replace a
number of the university's legacy systems with a single source of
truth, bringing together real-time key insights, streamlining
decision-making, achieving cost-savings and providing a seamless
experience for employees. To help ensure smooth implementation, the
University has selected KPMG as its implementation partner for
this major transformation journey.
University of Hull (UoH), a progressive English university
founded in 1927, is highly regarded for its focus on empowering
innovative thinking and fostering the next generation of
changemakers. As part of its digital transformation journey, the
university sought a solution to streamline core processes across
all aspects of the organisation to improve reporting, analytics,
and decision-making. UoH will be working closely with Workday to
not only connect HR and finance data, but also provide AI powered
insights and recommendations needed to help drive the organisation
into the future.
Unlocking Insights with Workday Financial Management
UoH will have the tools to gain greater visibility and make more
informed decisions by deploying Workday Financial Management,
increasing efficiency across the organisation. With Workday Prism
Analytics, UoH will have insight into financial analytics that
integrate streams of data from external sources, contextualise this
data, provide a complete view of each transaction, and report into
Workday Financials. Workday products with AI at the core will help
reduce friction by continuously detecting anomalies and making
recommendations. This will streamline the process of interpreting
and reviewing results and free up employee time to focus on the
strategic areas of business that matter most.
Putting People First with Workday Human Capital
Management
With Workday Human Capital Management (HCM), UoH will be able to
effectively attract, deploy and retain top talent by managing and
developing its workforce throughout the full talent acquisition
lifecycle. Connected data from finance will equip HR with clear
visibility into budget needs and constraints, which can better
inform hiring decisions. UoH will have a central hub for teams
to find and nurture the top applicants using automated campaigns,
tailored landing pages and real-time analytics. To analyse and
retain existing talent, UoH will leverage Workday Skills Cloud to
gain augmented analytics that will display AI powered
recommendations, workforce skills, redeployment opportunities,
trends, and key strategic initiatives.
"We have always championed forward-thinking and innovation at
the University of Hull, and this digital transformation is a
reflection of these ambitions," said Neil
Robinson, chief operations officer, University of Hull. "To
provide our students with the best possible experience, we must be
able to see the full picture of our organisation, such as our
strengths, potential gaps, and core business needs. Workday will
not only help ensure a more connected and efficient platform, but
provide us with the data driven insights and employee experience
necessary to drive University of Hull into the future."
"University of Hull shares our focus and commitment to
empowering the next generation of innovators," said Daniel Pell, vice president and country manager,
UKI, Workday. "Our solutions, embedded with AI capabilities and
designed with innovation at the core, will provide UoH with a clear
picture of its organisation through data driven insights and
recommendations. Streamlining these processes into a single system
will increase efficiency, freeing up time for strategy and
changemaking across the organisation."
"This is a hugely exciting opportunity to build on our
successful global alliance with Workday and implement a solution
that drives genuine value for the University. We look forward to
bringing together the very best of our three organisations, in
terms of knowledge, innovation and technology, to deliver a
step-change in service quality and end-user experience, underpinned
by our Powered Enterprise methodology and toolkit," said
Justine Andrew, head of education,
skills and productivity, KPMG UK.
