Challenges.
Elekta lacked a single HR system and was using Excel sheets for record keeping. A head-count report took more than a week to create, and was outdated by the time it was delivered.
Why Workday.
With Workday, Elekta now has a single HCM system that enables faster company-wide standardised HR processes, allowing its colleagues to focus on ensuring that cancer patients worldwide have access to more precise radiotherapy treatments.
We don’t need to spend time considering data accuracy but can instead focus on delivering insights back to the business with reliable data and metrics.

Talent management.
