“The quality and confidence of Kainos consultants who were engaged in workshops was excellent. They understood where our Finance team were coming from and could quickly identify our requirements to best configure them within Workday.”
“If Kainos hadn’t helped with the review and auditing of all our data, structuring it, allocating resources, exchanging data, communicating quickly and frequently – an on-time go-live wouldn't have been possible. They went above and beyond to ensure everything went to plan.”
“… we were looking for a lot of strong consultation. The Kainos consultants challenged us during design sessions, ensuring we kept our configuration clean and followed-best practice throughout. [They] really went above and beyond to explain and present things in greater detail, so that everything was clear to the team.”
