THE CHALLENGE
A global transformation at scale
FTI Consulting was preparing for a major global Workday transformation spanning 30+ countries, 8,500+ employees, and 2,000 contractors. Its complex HR ecosystem included multiple legacy systems, diverse business requirements, and more than 85 integrations including payroll integrations to 34 countries. Following challenges with its previous partner, FTI needed a seamless transition without putting its timeline at risk.
