Smart Implementation Advisory Services
We lead or coach. Your Small & Mighty team comes out stronger either way.
Same Team Always
Implementing Workday with consultants at your scale
Workday implementations fail for predictable reasons. Poor planning, consultants who have not seen your edge cases, decisions made in discovery that haunt you in production, and a team that disappears the moment Go-Live happens.
For Small & Mighty HRIS teams, the stakes are even higher. You don’t have a bench of internal resources to absorb mistakes. When something goes wrong, it lands on the same 1 to 5 people who are already running everything else.
That’s where we fill the gap. We can lead the implementation or coach your team through it so they own the knowledge when it is over. Either way, your Small & Mighty team comes out stronger on the other side.
CloudSmartHR implementation advisors have an average of 10+ years of Workday experience. They have seen the mistakes that derail mid-market implementations because they have cleaned up dozens of them. More importantly, the consultant who helps you plan and implement is the same one who supports you after Go-Live. Nothing gets lost. Nothing gets handed off.
Smart HRIS Workday Services
Pre-Implementation
Analysis and Planning
Our consultants have planned and executed implementations across 780+ Workday tenants. They know which decisions will come back to haunt you in production because they have lived through the consequences. Whether you want us to lead the planning or coach your team through the process so they build the skill, we make sure your foundation is right before a single configuration is built.
Rapid Implementation
Smart Support
RISS is built for speed. We pair senior Workday consultants with 8+ years of experience directly with your team to compress implementation timelines without cutting corners. No ramp-up period. No junior resources learning on the job. When you need it done fast, we execute. When there is time to teach, we coach your team along the way so the knowledge stays with you.
Any-Phase
Planning Services
Small & Mighty teams often don’t have the luxury of dedicated planning time. You are executing and planning simultaneously, which means course corrections happen on the fly. Our consultants have navigated enough implementations to know that plans change. The question is whether your consulting partner can adapt with you or whether they are locked into a rigid SOW that stopped reflecting reality three months ago.
Third-Party
Systems Evaluation
Our consultants have evaluated and integrated dozens of third-party platforms across biotech, healthcare, fintech, and tech. They know which ATS, payroll, time tracking, and compensation vendors play well with Workday and which ones create more problems than they solve. We can lead the evaluation or coach your team through the decision-making framework so they can own it going forward. Either way, you get an unbiased recommendation based on what works for your environment, not what earns us a referral fee.
Client Assistance
and SME Augmentation
When you augment with a CloudSmartHR consultant, you are adding a peer with 8+ years of Workday experience who hits the ground running. They do not need training. They do not need hand-holding. They step in, contribute from day one, and make your existing Small & Mighty team more productive, not more burdened. And when the engagement ends, your team has learned from working alongside a senior peer, not from managing a junior trainee.
User Acceptance
Testing
Workday buyer’s remorse is real. You signed the contract believing the system would do everything you needed. Then UAT hits and the gaps become visible. Our consultants don’t panic when UAT reveals surprises. They have been in this room before. They will either lead the remediation or coach your team through it, depending on what your bandwidth allows. Either way, your team comes out of UAT with a system that actually works and the knowledge to maintain it.
