WHAT THEY WANT

(Summarized from the RFP)

The City of Bellingham, Washington, is seeking a qualified firm to provide Application Management Services for its Workday platform after go-live. The City is implementing Workday Core HCM, Payroll, Benefits, Compensation, Absence Management, Time Tracking, Talent, Learning, and People Analytics, and needs specialized functional, technical, and advisory support to stabilize the environment, keep payroll accurate and on time, optimize configuration and business processes, and reduce manual workarounds. The engagement supplements City staff rather than replacing them: Human Resources and Information Technology Services keep ownership of business processes, policy decisions, work prioritization, and acceptance, while the vendor acts as a collaborative partner.
