Although many employees are directly involved in the Enterprise Project and Workday implementation, you may not be aware that this effort isn’t driven by technology. While moving from PeopleSoft to Workday is a big part of the Enterprise Project, it is really first and foremost a business transformation that will affect Ohio State’s teaching, research, service and patient care missions. For IT professionals and system users, that means implementing a leading cloud-based software with more frequent updates. On May 31, 2017, project leaders delivered a livestream update to the administrative community.
