00:00:00.551 --> 00:00:03.218
(upbeat music)

2
00:00:09.540 --> 00:00:11.730
<v ->CDW is a Fortune 500 company</v>

3
00:00:11.730 --> 00:00:14.130
with 20 plus billion dollars in revenue.

4
00:00:14.130 --> 00:00:17.730 line:15% 
We provide IT solutions to our customers through hardware,

5
00:00:17.730 --> 00:00:21.286 line:15% 
software, services, and other IT solutions.

6
00:00:21.286 --> 00:00:23.340
(upbeat music continues)

7
00:00:23.340 --> 00:00:24.960
As you think of CDW,

8
00:00:24.960 --> 00:00:27.900
we are really executing on our strategy to grow,

9
00:00:27.900 --> 00:00:28.800
to expand.

10
00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:31.590
With that, we decided it was about time to upgrade

11
00:00:31.590 --> 00:00:34.830
our ERP system to be able to support that growth,

12
00:00:34.830 --> 00:00:35.700
that scale.

13
00:00:35.700 --> 00:00:39.000
If I reflect back to kind of our legacy process,

14
00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:41.730
it was involved with a lot of manual efforts,

15
00:00:41.730 --> 00:00:44.730
you spent a lot of time extracting data,

16
00:00:44.730 --> 00:00:46.590
manually manipulating data,

17
00:00:46.590 --> 00:00:49.187
and the experience for the coworker just wasn't there.

18
00:00:49.187 --> 00:00:52.020
(upbeat music continues)

19
00:00:52.020 --> 00:00:54.960
Workday really hit a lot of what we were looking for,

20
00:00:54.960 --> 00:00:57.570
which was cloud-based platform

21
00:00:57.570 --> 00:00:59.220
that had the ability to connect in

22
00:00:59.220 --> 00:01:01.740
with our HR people information,

23
00:01:01.740 --> 00:01:05.130
the ability to connect in with adaptive financial planning,

24
00:01:05.130 --> 00:01:07.440
and really kind of gave good flexibility

25
00:01:07.440 --> 00:01:10.339
and adaptability to kind of meet our needs as the customer.

26
00:01:10.339 --> 00:01:12.450
(upbeat music continues)

27
00:01:12.450 --> 00:01:14.040
We really needed to bring in a partner

28
00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:15.810
that had the expertise in Workday

29
00:01:15.810 --> 00:01:18.630
to make sure that we implemented in the right way

30
00:01:18.630 --> 00:01:20.310
that was gonna be effective for us.

31
00:01:20.310 --> 00:01:22.560
What made Deloitte stand out in that process

32
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:24.810
was their implementation approach.

33
00:01:24.810 --> 00:01:26.820 line:15% 
<v ->Deloitte's been an official partner with Workday</v>

34
00:01:26.820 --> 00:01:28.620 line:15% 
for the past 16 years.

35
00:01:28.620 --> 00:01:32.550
The power of partnership between Deloitte, Workday, and CDW,

36
00:01:32.550 --> 00:01:33.570
we brought together

37
00:01:33.570 --> 00:01:36.570
sort of the best of each of the three of the parties

38
00:01:36.570 --> 00:01:40.514
to really get to the right outcomes for our client.

39
00:01:40.514 --> 00:01:42.960
(upbeat music continues)

40
00:01:42.960 --> 00:01:44.820
<v ->Now that we're live with Workday,</v>

41
00:01:44.820 --> 00:01:47.970
I would say, the coworker experience has definitely changed.

42
00:01:47.970 --> 00:01:50.460
They are seeing the automation in the tool,

43
00:01:50.460 --> 00:01:52.110
the capabilities of the tool,

44
00:01:52.110 --> 00:01:55.920
and a lot of that negative experience that they had before

45
00:01:55.920 --> 00:01:57.881
has now been eliminated.

46
00:01:57.881 --> 00:01:59.250
(upbeat music continues)

47
00:01:59.250 --> 00:02:01.830
As I think about this year's Workday Rising,

48
00:02:01.830 --> 00:02:03.420
one of the things I'm really excited about

49
00:02:03.420 --> 00:02:06.750
is listening and hearing more about kind of the roadmap

50
00:02:06.750 --> 00:02:09.360
and how is Workday thinking about AI.

51
00:02:09.360 --> 00:02:11.760
<v ->Workday is releasing Illuminate,</v>

52
00:02:11.760 --> 00:02:13.800
and all of the rich AI features

53
00:02:13.800 --> 00:02:16.740
that are coming out over the course of the next year,

54
00:02:16.740 --> 00:02:20.010
and CDW is ripe for now,

55
00:02:20.010 --> 00:02:23.220
taking advantage of all of those features

56
00:02:23.220 --> 00:02:27.090
and really getting from an optimized finance function

57
00:02:27.090 --> 00:02:29.707
to an AI-enabled finance function.

58
00:02:29.707 --> 00:02:33.207
