A Step-by-Step Guide
1. The Beginning: The Best Place to Start
Before implementation begins, we set the foundation with clients by mapping out activities, timeline expectations, and a project plan.
Here’s how the magic all begins:
- Project Kick-Off: Introductions and planning between consultancy and client teams, outlining roles, expectations, and goals.
- Initial Data Loads: Analysing historical and current workforce data to transition from legacy systems to Dayforce.
- High-Level Timeline: Creating a detailed project timeline with precision.
- Organizational Readiness: Assessing the project’s impact on the organization to minimize disruption and ensure alignment.
- Project Plan: Detailing the project’s specifics, including roles and responsibilities.
2. Deliver the Data and Test, Test, Test
The next stage involves gathering and loading data, identifying project requirements, and rigorous testing.
At a glance this second stage of Dayforce implementation is centred on:
- Continue Data Loads: Loading necessary data and formatting it appropriately.
- Requirements Gathering: Identifying exact project requirements and ensuring provisions are in place.
- Finalize Project Scope: Scoping out all features, functions, and deliverables for Dayforce implementation.
- Configuration: Configuring modules for HR, payroll, workforce management, and benefits, ensuring regulatory compliance.
- User Acceptance Testing (UAT): Ensuring software functionality before Go Live.
- Day-in-the-Life Testing (DITL): Verifying system-wide applications and processes in real-time.
3. Ready, Set, Go!
In the final phase, we ensure everything is ready for operation. From additional data loads to Go Live activities that tick all boxes, getting all support measures in place, and finally closing off the project.
This phase of implementation is full on (but it needs to be), here’s what happens:
- Final Data Loads: Completing data migration without issues.
- Go Live Activities: Ensuring all features and functionalities are operational and understood by users.
- Ownership of Solution: Assigning system ownership and defining roles.
- Transition to Support: Providing ongoing support post-implementation.
- Project Close: Ensuring client satisfaction before project completion.
4. Essential Dayforce Implementation Checkpoints
Working directly with the team at Dayforce, our Alxemy team factor in a number of essential check-ins throughout the span of the implementation project, these include:
- Dashboard Tracking: Providing real-time monitoring and reporting.
- Pulse Checks: Regular check-ins to gauge client satisfaction and address any issues.
- Net Promoter Score (NPS): A great tool used to measure customer (internal) satisfaction. This relatively simple method of gathering satisfaction assists our work going forward.
