Yale’s current administrative systems are functionally and technically dated, and they are becoming increasingly difficult to adapt to today’s business and compliance requirements. Additionally, Workday provides Yale opportunities to simplify the way work gets done, reduce administrative burdens, standardize processes, lower operating costs and improve effectiveness.
The Workday@Yale Program will continue to engage the Yale community in several different ways: auditorium sessions, email, functionality update communications, and program resources posted on the workday@yale website.
The Workday@Yale Program is a multi-year implementation originally launched in July 2013. The Program completed the Human Resources, Academic, and Payroll Go-Live of Workday functionality on July 1, 2015. The Program is now moving forward with ongoing implementations and optimizations as Yale prepares for its Workday Financial functionality roll-out, scheduled for July 2017.
The Program team is facilitating a series of working sessions with representatives from HR, Benefits, Finance, Computing Services and the Yale community (a cross-section of representatives from the academic and business units). Additional subject matter experts (i.e., Recruiting, Legal, ISO, etc.) are providing recommendations as well. The objective of these working sessions is to review Yale’s current operating model across its processes, organizations and technology.
