AI & Automation

Our intelligent automation ensures repeatable, accurate data extraction, transformation, cleansing, and validation, reducing risk and effort while accelerating outcomes.

Workday Cloud data transformation

Implementing Workday, whether for Human Capital Management, Payroll, Financials, Student, or other modules, is a significant transformation for any organization.

Yet too often, the responsibility for translating data from legacy systems into Workday is placed on internal teams of IT and business-process subject matter experts who aren’t data transformation specialists. At Definian, we understand that data transformation is one of the most critical and high-risk components of a successful Workday deployment. When not executed with precision, it can result in:

Delays that impact go-live timelines
Increased implementation costs
Limited access to Workday’s full capabilities
Broken or unreliable integrations
Inaccurate reporting to internal stakeholders and regulatory bodies
Inefficient use of your team’s time and expertise

That’s why we go beyond just moving data. We bring structure, strategy, and clarity to the entire data lifecycle, combining deep expertise in data strategy, governance, and analytics to ensure your Workday transformation delivers long-term value.
