Challenges.

Meijer’s HR technology fostered inefficient, inconsistent business processes companywide. Furthermore, its multiple systems and custom bolt-on applications had rigid workflows and limited self-service and reporting capabilities.

Why Workday.

By adopting Workday, Meijer gains one system and one source of truth for consolidating HR systems, standardising processes and automating workflows. Easy-to-use, highly flexible tools simplify configuration, enable self-service reporting, and support mobile devices and desktops.

Benefits and results.

Gained flexible systems.

Meijer consolidated its systems and applications into a single, flexibly configured HR system. It shifted partial ownership of the system from IT to HR, formed an agile HR support team, and sped up internal responses while moving to a culture of continuous improvement and innovation.

Improved organisational management.

Consolidated reports.

Meijer equipped users with one source of truth and a consolidated reporting experience. The company enabled direct self-service access to several real-time reports and removed a former requirement to manually prepare and distribute up to 25 versions of each report, relieving HR of a significant administrative burden.
