Workday Operate Services by Deloitte

Turning Application Support into Continuous HR Transformation

Build a high-performing Operate team to resolve incidents effectively, navigate releases smoother, design enhancements that advance your HR Strategy, and free up capacity to focus on what’s next.  

The urge to grow Workday Operate Capabilities

Implementing Workday represents a significant investment in your HR transformation journey, and the value realised over time depends on how effectively that investment is sustained.  

The Real Challenges are:  

  • Knowledge and resourcing gaps: Loss of organizational knowledge, stretched internal teams, and difficulty finding, retaining, and upskilling Workday talent. 
  • Release management and technical debt: Releases treated defensively rather than as opportunities, leading to configuration drift and underused functionality. 
  • External pressures: Automation, evolving workforces, regulatory change, and pressure for greater agility outpacing traditional AMS models. 
  • Governance and funding:  No clear framework for prioritizing fixes versus enhancements, and limited funding for anything beyond essential maintenance 
  • Perceived value: AMS seen as a cost center rather than a value driver, with reactive engagement models that make ROI hard to prove. 

Left unaddressed, these challenges compound. Technical debt grows, user trust erodes, and the gap between Workday's potential and what your organization actually uses widens year over year, turning what should be a strategic asset into a source of risk and missed opportunity.
