Case Study: Hospitality Staffing Solutions achieves an 18-week reduction in annual budgeting with Workday Adaptive Planning

Leader in hospitality staffing reduces annual budget process by 18 weeks

Hospitality Staffing Solutions (HSS) faced a challenging finance and reporting environment as it pursued 10–15% top-line growth, relying on a complex “Excel nightmare” of spreadsheets that made accurate reporting slow and difficult. The company turned to Workday and Workday Adaptive Planning to streamline its budgeting and forecasting processes.

With Workday Adaptive Planning, HSS dramatically shortened its monthly close and reporting cycle and cut its annual planning process from six months to six weeks, saving 18 weeks of staff time. Workday helped the finance team improve reporting timeliness, including trimming 14 days off the reporting cycle, and enabled more value-added work such as scenario analysis.
