Case Study: UPP achieves greater HR and finance efficiency with Workday Success Plans

UPP empowers its people to care for the 36,000 students it houses

UPP, a UK real estate investment trust serving 15 universities, was managing HR and finance across a fragmented set of systems, making integration clunky and difficult to maintain. After its rapid move to Workday in 2019, UPP needed a better way to build in-house expertise and get more value from its Workday investment, so it turned to Workday Success Plans.

With Workday Success Plans, UPP used one-to-one guidance, Ask-an-Expert, Learn-On-Demand, webinars, and optimization reviews to improve configuration, adopt new features, and streamline processes. Workday helped UPP implement changes in absence management, flexible working, recruiting, banking integration, and invoice automation, saving time, reducing errors, and driving significant operational efficiencies and annual savings, while also improving employee satisfaction and retention.
