Embrace Best Practices
-
As WPI makes the shift from Banner to Workday, we seek to implement business processes as delivered, unless there are significant and compelling reasons to do otherwise.
-
We streamline and simplify workflows wherever possible and design business processes with consistency and standardization in mind.
-
We also build business processes with accountability in mind -- with appropriate controls and approvals for each process.
Enable Data-Driven Decision Making at Every Level of the Institution
-
Workday provides individuals with access to the consistent information, metrics, and reports they need to fulfill their responsibilities and reach their goals at WPI.
Work Toward Consensus Through Inclusion & Engagement
-
We are committed to making information about the project available to the WPI community via open lines of communication and dialogue, including a project website and periodic updates.
-
We invite members of the community to make suggestions about the project, share their ideas, and also share their concerns. We take the needs of the community seriously, and we consider all suggestions and comments. To make a suggestion, email workday@wpi.edu.
Prepare WPI for Future Growth and Success
The implementation of Workday is transforming the end-to-end processes that support student, faculty, and staff experiences. These changes to the way we do business will establish the technological platform that allows for continued growth and achievement of strategic priorities for many years to come.
