- Global Payroll Transformation & System Integration for American Multinational Firm
Overview
Client Challenge
The client, a major American multinational firm, sought to implement a comprehensive payroll transformation across two major markets—the UK and India—and 10 mid-sized countries. The project included the implementation of ADP GlobalView (GV) for the UK and India, along with the rollout of another ADP payroll product across the additional countries. The project also included Workday-to-ADP integration, T&A (Time & Attendance) system implementation, process harmonization, and a finance transformation initiative.
The client required strategic adjustments to the rollout plan, addressing operational resources bandwidth, resourcing needs, and identifying key gaps in the process.
