The Challenge

  • High Visibility: We were implementing the Advanced Compensation module of Workday. Which in a Partnership organisation is extremely high touch as it impacts Bonuses, Salary Increases.

  • Timeline: We had limited time to implement the additional module, the project was already behind, having worked with poor quality resources who had been mis-managed meaning that Requirements had not been documented properly and lacked strong sign-off from the Board who needed to be behind the solution that was going to impact 5k Employees.

  • Stakeholders: Senior Stakeholders right up to Board level and CFO, alongside a non-tech savvy HR Department who were already change resistant overlayed with a Compensation department with ambitions to align heavily to Market Data - all meant for a challenging stakeholder matrix that needed (sometimes) extreme levels of diplomacy and a forthright solutions focussed approach.

Our Impact

Process & Pool Definition

The Advanced Comp Module requires definition of approval process and organisation work to ensure this is clean. Then definition of how Bonus & Salary Increase Pools are allocated. We found a solution the Partnership was comfortable with in a highly political environment with strong voices.

Market Data Alignment

The ultimate goal of the Advanced Comp Module is to allocate Bonus & Salary Increases on the yearly calendar - with the outcome being that the workforce is ‘incentivised’ properly. All whilst ensuring that the workforce is aligned to Market Data. We implemented new Market Data structures as a key deliverable.

Change Management

Ensuring the HR organisation would work with us to ultimately own the yearly calendar process in BAU, needed lots of socialising the solution and feedback reviews. We were able to get everyone onside via targeted Engagement, and then easy to use Training and effective precisely timed Comms.

The Result

  • Implemented the module in a ‘record’ 3 month timeframe.

  • Brought the HR Process into Workday for consistent yearly management, reducing the manual overhead costs - instituting a process that the organisation actually enjoyed!

  • Aligned the organisation to proper Market Data, which meant that new Employees, occupying positions, were at market and the organisation as a whole had a workforce that was properly incentivised.
