How to benchmark your Workday per employee per month rates and identify premium overage costs.
Strategic framework for negotiating Workday renewals and managing renewal timeline pressure.
Rate the utilisation of each licensed Workday module to identify underutilised modules that can be removed or renegotiated for 20 to 40 percent PEPM reductions at renewal.
Answer a few quick questions about your Workday module utilisation. The assessment will identify which modules represent the strongest negotiation leverage at renewal.
Complete the assessment above to rate utilisation across your licensed Workday modules. The tool supports all major modules: Core HCM, Recruiting, Talent Management, Learning, Compensation, Prism Analytics, Peakon, Adaptive Planning, Extend, and VNDLY.
The assessment identifies modules with low or moderate usage that become immediate negotiation targets. Underutilised modules represent your strongest leverage in renewal discussions because Workday will prioritise retention through discounts over losing the revenue entirely.
Use the results to build a structured negotiation position. Frame module removal as your default position, and allow Workday to propose discounts to retain them. This approach typically unlocks 20 to 40 percent PEPM reductions on underutilised modules at renewal.
