What you’ll learn: Customers saw 176% ROI, $6.8M in net present value, and payback in under 6 months by consolidating with Dayforce Frontline managers got back 60% of time previously spent building and adjusting schedules Leaders reported stronger confidence in payroll accuracy, better employee experiences, and greater agility What changes when HCM, payroll, and workforce management are in a single system If you run payroll or own workforce outcomes, you feel the stress every day. Challenges turn into late nights, workarounds, and growing risks. A new Forrester Consulting Total Economic Impact™ study commissioned by Dayforce shows what changes — financially and operationally — when organizations replace fragmented HR, payroll, and workforce management systems with a single platform and real-time data. The study was based on interviews with customers across multiple industries, built with a composite of 7,500 employees using the Dayforce HCM platform. Findings showed the financial and operational impact of consolidating workforce systems into a single platform. Beyond the financial results, leaders described fewer payroll surprises, more empowered employees through self-service and on-demand pay, and teams that could adapt faster as the business evolved. For organizations under pressure to solve business problems with real returns, this study sets a clear benchmark for what simplification should deliver.
