If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
When you ask for access to one of our diagnostics, we collect your name, job title, work email, and organisation. These details are emailed directly to Lucas Kennedy and are not stored on this website. Your survey responses are held in Lucas Kennedy’s own systems. To have your request or responses deleted, or to exercise your data rights, contact Lucas Kennedy directly.
Pre-decision, mid-implementation, optimising, or preparing for AI, tell us where you are and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Sometimes you need people rather than a project. Fifteen years of Workday recruitment, and a network we use ourselves.
Permanent, contract or FTC placement, or day-rate augmentation. We flex to how you need to hire.
Permanent, contract and FTC across UK, EMEA and North America.
“I worked closely with Lucas Kennedy during the Workday Services Programme at bp and they helped me hugely. They were proactive, they cared and we ended up with 35 of the team via LK recommendations. Truly excellent!”
bp
Support from the people who built it. UK-based with nearshore support from Madrid, and it already knows your configuration.
Named consultants and agreed service levels, monthly. Scale the service up or down as your tenant and your team change.
Measured across engagements.
“When I call, I speak to someone who already knows the answer.”
Technology Company
Go-live is the start of the return, not the end of the project. Most partners are gone before real value shows up.
We do the work with your team, not to one side of it. Fixed price for a defined optimisation, or day rate while the backlog is still forming.
At Jupiter Asset Management, after Adaptive Planning.
“They made sure our finance team genuinely owned it after go-live.”
Mid-Market Business
Recommendations are everywhere. Delivery is rare. We deploy Workday end to end, working as one team with our Advisory practice, with resources across the UK and EMEA and expertise from every side of the table — customer, partner and Workday itself.
We lead delivery end to end — design, build, integrate, test and go-live — working as one team with our Advisory practice, so the strategy you signed off on is the delivery you get. Backed by consultants who’ve deployed Workday from every seat: as the customer, the partner, and Workday.
Our team spans the UK and EMEA with deep bench strength. Ex-Workday, ex-partner and customer-side experience, certified across HCM, Financials, Payroll, Adaptive Planning and integrations.
“They made calls that cost them time, not us. That’s when we knew they were actually on our side.”
Global Financial Services
We have no software to resell, so the advice stays honest. We’d rather tell you what you actually need than sell you what we’d like to.
We sit on your side of the table, with no software to resell. Fixed price for a defined piece of work, or time and materials while the question is still forming.
Our leaders have sat on the client side of a Workday programme, worked inside Workday partners, and worked for Workday themselves. That’s judgement built from every seat at the table.
“The advisory team gave us honest, direct guidance. They didn’t oversell the technology.”
Professional Services
These diagnostics are shared directly with the people we’re working with, so access is by request.
We only use these details to verify your request and send your link. We don’t add you to a mailing list or share them.
