Subject: Update on Workday

Colleagues

As you know, the implementation of Workday has been targeted for this fall. The project’s steering committee and sponsors met last Thursday to discuss the current status of the project and what still needs to be accomplished before the system goes live.

The committee determined, after careful consideration, that the go-live date must be adjusted in order to fully integrate the enterprise payroll system into Workday, which is currently behind schedule. Workday must be able to communicate with the payroll system to ensure all employees are paid correctly, and this is too critical to get wrong. This delay is restricted to the two systems themselves; it is not a reflection of anyone involved with the upkeep or configuration of payroll or Workday.

We will send an update as soon as possible, including the new go-live date, after we complete more testing. As we are sure you will agree, we simply must get the implementation of Workday right. Your patience, feedback and support during this time are appreciated.

Katy Coba
DAS Director and COO
