Local Government
Move your local council forward with agility.
Rising costs. Ageing infrastructures. Changes in workforce demographics. New hybrid work models. Workday gives local governments a flexible foundation to meet these challenges so you can focus on serving your constituents.
Choosing Workday will provide local government with a strong toolset that improves efficiency, reduces risks, and maximizes value, helping councils achieve their goals in Australia.
Modernizing finance and HR processes needs significant time and money, but this investment is worthwhile as it will enhance performance for local council, employees, and stakeholders. We believe cloud applications represent the future, but not all cloud solutions are the same.
70% of the 20 largest U.S. cities using cloud ERP choose Workday.
