3 Reasons to do a Workday Phase 0 Readiness Engagement with Invisors

Written by Sam Phillips | Feb 8, 2023 5:27:20 PM

Many organizations find themselves with legacy ERP systems which rarely achieve the results they're expecting. They deploy the most basic functionality simultaneously with more advanced options in a single, lengthy deployment cycle. In the end, these organizations are left paying for functionality that isn't being used.

Invisors' Phase 0 offers a way to transition from your existing systems to a single, unified system that’s designed for your core business needs, while focusing on the fundamental elements of Workday’s design + preparing your organization for the decisions and change management effort to come. In short - we meet you at the starting line + make sure that you have everything you need before you set off on your implementation marathon.

3 key indicators that you're the perfect candidate for a Phase 0 Readiness Engagement:

#1 |   You know your data could use some (a lot of) help

We say this all the time because we know it to be true - the key to any successful business process is clear + reliable data. 

Whether it be due to the struggles of managing multiple systems, recent acquisitions, or the fact that your data has simply gone stale over time, a phase 0 will put a plan in place to deal with any data gaps and inconsistencies + put you on a path to success.

Invisors uses data discovery as a tool to identify these issues early on and make recommendations on activities that can be taken before + during deployment.

 

#2 |  You don't know if you will need to hire more support for the Workday implementation process

We understand that your team is already a key component of your success + just because you are starting an implementation project, doesn't mean that their other duties cease to exist. An implementation project requires input from your team around requirements + testing. You may need to stack your bench with a few extra players to make sure that your teams aren't taking their eye off the prize.

A Phase 0 can help uncover bottlenecks + blackout periods before they become an issue during the implementation project.

Invisors can make recommendations on roles that may need to be contracted or backfilled for the project.

 

#3 You have questions about what success will look like once you are live on Workday

Even if you aren't 100% happy with your legacy ERP system, change can be hard - but it doesn't have to be!

A Phase 0 can help to ease those new-system-nerves. Invisors enables you to get a jumpstart on your implementation by focusing on the most critical + foundational design decisions you'll make. We work with your stakeholders to determine your approach, scope + timeline. This way, when it comes time to take the leap, you'll already have a vision of what success will look like for your organization.

Invisors will equip you with the information you need to make these critical decisions before jumping into the implementation.
