Case study: HCM selection and managed payroll for a global law firm

Silver Cloud HR was asked to support a global law firm, with a presence in four countries, with the selection of a new HCM that would meet their specific needs.

Additionally, they required help with selecting a managed payroll provider that could consolidate their disparate payroll functions and provide seamless functionality across all locations.

Sector: Legal
Organisation Size: 1,900 across 14 countries
Scope: HCM & Global Managed Service Payroll
Solution: Workday and ActivPayroll

The Challenge

Our client had a Tier 1 HCM solution in place for several years albeit, utilising a historical, on-premise version.  They felt they were no longer gaining the benefits that newer technology could offer and Silver Cloud was engaged to conduct a full digital review.

We recommended that they scoped the market for a new, cloud-based solution, which offered seamless integration and greater reporting capabilities.

The Process

Silver Cloud went on to provide full selection support services for both a new HCM solution and further supported a second selection process to find both a new UK payroll solution and a global, outsourced managed payroll partner.

The Results

After an in depth review and evaluation of suitable options, the firm selected Workday for UK HCM and Payroll and ActivePayroll as their global payroll managed service partner.

They went live with Phase 1 in July 2020 and with their payroll service in November 2020.
