Case Study: Synchrony Financial achieves rapid, compliant LMS launch with Alight Solutions' Cornerstone deployment

Synchrony Financial rapidly deploying Cornerstone LMS during a divestiture

Synchrony Financial, preparing to spin off from its parent, needed to stand up independent learning and HR technology systems on a compressed timeline to meet federal regulators’ requirements, satisfy compliance obligations, and minimize disruption for employees. Alight Solutions recommended and implemented Cornerstone as the learning platform and integrated it with Workday HCM to deliver an intuitive, compliance‑focused LMS by the spinoff date.

Alight Solutions provided cloud advisory and cloud deployment services and used Alight’s Cornerstone deployment solutions to configure Cornerstone and integrate it with Workday HCM; the new LMS was live and fully integrated in about five months, enabling employees to complete required regulatory training after the split. The engagement delivered measurable impact: implementation finished six weeks sooner than comparable projects and contract processing accelerated to 150% faster than average.
