Kainos Deploys Workday Human Capital Management at Travelex

Workday HCM is a single system-of-record, delivered in the cloud, that enables organisations to make faster decisions, gain operational visibility, prepare for future talent shifts and build effective teams. With Workday, Travelex has achieved large-scale efficiencies by streamlining processes, automating workflows, increasing visibility, and reducing administrative tasks. More strategically, these results will empower HR teams to focus on talent management, performance management and workforce optimisation, using the application 's embedded analytics capabilities that are available to smartphone, tablet, and desktop users. Extending on Workday 's own deployment tools and methodology, Kainos provided extensive implementation, systems integration and data migration services as part of the Workday deployment, which now supports self-service use by more than 8,000 employees and line managers across three global regions (encompassing the Middle East, India and Asia Pacific, the UK/Europe and North America). Kainos also provided automated testing using Kainos Smart?, a powerful cloud-based testing tool, which helps accelerate Workday deployments. Kainos, which began working on the project in early 2013, faced tight timelines to meet Travelex 's ambitious targets. The most recent phase involved the deployment of Workday across nine countries in just four months. All of the core system 's functionality is now live across 23 countries. Gareth Williams, Global HR Director at Travelex, is highly positive about the impact that Workday will have on Travelex. He said: 'Kainos has strong credentials in Workday deployments and automated testing. The team members showed commitment and skill at every stage of the project. Using Kainos has given us the confidence to extend our use of Workday across our workforce.' Hear more from Williams on the Workday deployment in our video.
