Foundation

Workday Foundation services—from business process framework to governance to integration—are core to any mission critical enterprise solution. Packaged in an intuitive form, these services are usable for both developers and end users. And unlike traditional enterprise applications, these services are not bolted on—they are built directly in to all Workday solutions.

Business Process Framework

Workday's Business Process Framework provides configuration, execution and monitoring of all the business processes and related real-world events managed in Workday. Configuration is code-free, allowing business users to continually define and alter the business processes specific to their organization without spending the resources typically involved with workflow configuration and maintenance.

User Experience

Workday provides an intuitive, modern Internet user experience (UE) for all workers in a business, from power users to casual users. The system is architected to take advantage of the constantly evolving innovations in user experience technologies.

Integration

Application integration is a key requirement of today's enterprises, one that is typically left to the enterprise to pay for, implement and maintain. Workday takes a different approach to integration by offering hosted, packaged integration built on natively generated web services and delivered using embedded enterprise service bus (ESB) technology.

Security

Workday's comprehensive approach to securing access to business data—combined with a unique ability to audit application changes and ongoing SAS-70 level II certification of key design, development and data center processes—make us a trusted partner for improved governance and compliance.

Development Framework

Workday's development framework enables application developers to define and develop applications without complex relational databases or massive amounts of code. This approach dramatically improves developer productivity and application agility, which allows the Workday development staff to more rapidly build and deploy new functionality, while customers can configure Workday to meet their specific requirements.
