Case Study: Butte County modernizes operations with Workday and Strada

Butte County, California retires a decades-old legacy system and modernizes operations with Workday and Strada

Butte County, California faced the challenge of replacing a 35-year-old legacy system that was nearing its end-of-life. The outdated platform had limited functionality and self-service capabilities, forcing various departments to use secondary systems and rely on manual, time-consuming processes for reporting. The county needed a modern, integrated system for payroll, time keeping, accounting, and benefits management to ensure a single source of truth and minimize disruption to its services for over 207,000 residents.

Working with Strada, the county implemented Workday HCM. The solution involved a strategic deployment that started with mission-critical processes before expanding. The results were significant, including a 93% reduction in errors with external providers, a 98% decrease in time spent on annual reports, and a 75% reduction in HR support requests. Strada helped Butte County achieve greater transparency, streamlined operations, and data-driven decision-making.
