According to data from Sapient Insights, 50% of organizations plan to overhaul their payroll systems in the next couple of years. This is significant, considering that most companies will keep a payroll platform for approximately nine years. That’s a long time in technology years. Consider how drastically payroll technology has transformed in the nine years since 2015 — and now extrapolate that rate of change to 2033.
But no matter what year it is, one thing will always be the same — accurate and timely payroll is mission-critical. You have to excel at the basics.
But from there, companies have a lot to consider:
This last bullet point is crucial because if you don’t know what you’re aiming for, how will you know if you’ve succeeded?
Today, payroll has more responsibilities than ever, and change comes faster than it used to. Not only is payroll expected to leverage data and insights to help with planning and strategy, but it also has to consider financial well-being.
With new expectations and a growing to-do list, it’s becoming increasingly important for companies to have long-term solutions. Imagine how beneficial it would be if your solution still met your needs nine years from now while other companies are investing in new platforms.
Unfortunately, many teams face system limitations that increase their manual workload.
The best solutions will use automation, AI, and machine learning in human-centric ways to help employees reduce manual work and preventable errors. This will allow them to focus on more strategic, value-additive priorities. Having a service partner that also leverages these technologies only makes things better.
“The concept of AI and ML at Workday is allowing that human-centric approach where it’s not taking and doing payroll for you. It’s allowing you to make better and quicker decisions.” – Sherry Yarbrough, Principal Product Manager Payroll, Workday
From the start, Workday has always distinguished itself from the competition with its “Better Together” approach. It offers companies a strong, integrated solution designed for sustainable growth. It’s highly configurable and can manage specific payment requirements through a real-time calculation engine. In addition, built-in analytics allow for reporting, auditing, and data-driven decision-making using payroll data.
“Better Together” can also describe the experience of using Workday with OneSource Virtual.
