Artificial Intelligence (AI) is experiencing remarkable growth and widespread adoption across every industry. The development of machine learning has been instrumental in this progress, enabling unparalleled data-driven decision-making, error reduction, and enhanced insights and recommendation systems. AI’s accessibility, adaptability, and influence is elevating the Workday experience - while enabling Workday partners to provide intelligent solutions for support teams and end-users.

Once limited to specialised fields or academia, AI has rapidly entered the mass market, transforming our lives and work. Integrated into everyday experiences, the democratisation of AI-powered technologies has empowered individuals and businesses to enhance productivity, make better decisions faster, and drive innovation. It’s little surprise then that Workday has emerged as a trailblazer in harnessing AI to transform how companies manage workforce and financial processes.

Interested in creating greater efficiencies, securing stronger compliance, and realising more substantial returns from your investment in Workday? Here are five ways that AI is helping make these impacts a reality for organisations and their Workday teams.

1. Advanced data analytics

Workday has integrated AI-powered data analytics capabilities into its platform, enabling organisations to gain deeper insights into their workforce and financial data. With AI algorithms, Workday can analyse vast amounts of information, identify patterns, and generate predictive models to optimise decision-making. By leveraging AI, Workday enables businesses to make data-driven decisions that drive organisational growth and agility.

2. Enhancing the employee experience

Workday's AI capabilities extend beyond its back-office functions, enhancing the overall employee experience. Through AI-powered chatbots and virtual assistants, employees can access information, submit requests, and receive personalised recommendations. AI-driven sentiment analysis can gauge employee satisfaction and identify areas for improvement, enabling organisations to address concerns and foster a positive work environment.

3. Personalising workforce learning and development

AI is helping organisations that use Workday to build a skilled and adaptable workforce. Through personalised learning paths and recommendations, AI algorithms identify knowledge gaps and suggest relevant training modules for employees. This tailored approach ensures that employees receive the right training at the right time, empowering them to upskill and grow within the organisation.

Workday's relentless pursuit of innovation has propelled it to the forefront of AI-driven HR and finance solutions. At Kainos we are dedicated to continuous research and development, exploring emerging AI technologies and industry best practices.

4. Intelligent, secure risk management

Kainos is leveraging AI within its Smart solutions to help Workday customers simplify risk management tasks. AI algorithms are being implemented into Smart Audit, for example, to automate repetitive configuration checks and detect anomalies, flagging potential security issues before they impact business as usual or present audit difficulties. By utilising AI-enhanced solutions like Smart Test, which will soon offer repeatable, auto-generated tests with synthetic worker data, Workday teams can focus on strategic initiatives, reduce business process errors and improve overall reporting and compliance accuracy.
