DEDICATED WORKDAY PROJECT MANAGEMENT SERVICES

Independent Workday Project Managers

Hands-on PMs who run your project day-to-day.

Experienced Workday Certified Project Managers own the schedule, track deliverables, coordinate teams, and keep your programme running smoothly from kickoff through hypercare.  We don't just advise - we execute. 

 

We know the Launch, Flex, and Your Way methodologies inside and out. We understand where Workday programmes most often derail and address risk early; before it impacts timeline, cost, or confidence.​​​

We provide Workday Project Managers to UK and US organisations. 

WORKDAY-NATIVE EXPERTISE

The Workday Project Manager Gap

Why This Matters

73%

of implementations exceed original budget by 20+%

68%

experience scope creep requiring change orders

54%

miss go-live dates by 3+ months

Why? 

 

Because generic PMs can't challenge the SI on Workday-specific decisions.

Our Workday Project Managers know:​

When "configuration limitations" are real vs. SI excuses

Which testing shortcuts will haunt you post-production

When integration delays mean architectural problems

How to validate security changes before testing breaks

Workday-native Project Management.
Not generic Project Management applied to Workday

CLIENT PROJECT MANAGER GAP

Most Workday Programmes have one of three Project Management problems

The SI's PM is spread across 3 projects

Your programme gets 30% attention.

Critical risks get missed because they're not present when decisions happen or issues surface.  By the time they engage, the issue has already cost you weeks.

Your Internal PM has never done Workday

Learning on your dime.

They can't spot Workday-specific risks or challenge the SI on methodology shortcuts.  What looks like progress is often rework waiting to happen.

No dedicated Project Manager at all

Chaos disguised as "agile."

Decisions drift, accountability blurs, and go-live dates slip month after month.  73% of programmes without strong PM leadership exceed budget by 20+%. 

HOW 360 HCM SOLVES

We solve all three with dedicated, Workday-certified Project Managers who know the methodology and protect your outcomes.
