What We Do
The founders and consultants of Kognitiv live and breathe Workday®. We understand that going live with your new system is just the first step in a long partnership with Workday® and its ecosystem. Implementations are fast and furious, with work like reports, dashboards, and knowledge transfer often postponed until after a go-live. In some cases, your implementation partner has already moved on to its next project. This is why Kognitiv exists: to bridge the gap for those clients wanting to better maintain and enhance their system post a go-live.
Kognitiv offers simplified Workday® consulting and support without the need for long-term contracts, complicated rate cards or minimum spend requirements. This solution allows clients to pay for only what they need, when they need it, such as rolling out new features to your team, handling updates, or adding new divisions to your organization. Whatever project is thrown your way, Kognitiv has the experts to scale up your team quickly to handle the workload.
