We help clients define their Information Management / IT / Digital strategy and assist them through the entire technology and digital transformational journey, including implementation, in order for them to become a digitally connected enterprise.

KPMG has a significant Workday practice in Canada, with team members across the nation (spanning regions such as Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Toronto and the GTA, Montreal and Halifax).

Our team includes various Workday Product Leads, as well as some of the very first Workday-certified Consultants in the country.

Our Workday practitioners span the breadth of HR functional knowledge, technical know-how and blend the latest trends in HR service optimization with real-world knowledge and understanding of our clients' industry challenges and opportunities.

Most recently, KPMG received the highest possible ranking of "Leader" among Workday implementation partners in the Forrester New Wave Workday implementation report from 2019.
