Case Study: Iowa State University achieves greater efficiency and agility with Workday Adaptive Planning

Cyclones graduate from green screens to the cloud

Iowa State University faced rising costs and slow change management as its mainframe-based applications and paper workflows made reporting, hiring, and administrative updates difficult. The university needed a more agile, collaborative model to connect finance, HR, and IT and improve efficiency and control.

With Workday Adaptive Planning, Iowa State University moved to an adaptable cloud-based administrative approach that streamlined workflows and improved visibility. Workday Adaptive Planning helped increase insights into cost centers, save time through flexible digital processes, reduce the average time to hire by almost half, and enable new processes to be implemented weeks to months faster.
