For Canadian cities to run effectively and best serve their constituents, digital transformation isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a necessity. The demands for efficiency, accessibility, and services centered around citizens are pivotal in enhancing our communities.
This article dives into how Workday's cloud-based solutions for human resources, finance, planning, and more address a crucial concern: budget limitations. We explore how even municipalities with constrained financial resources can embrace innovative approaches to enhance their operations and services. By navigating the challenges of limited budgets and embracing the potential of hybrid work models, Workday paves the way for small cities to thrive in the digital age, fostering progress and engagement.
In small cities with limited budgets, embracing cloud-based technology solutions may not always be an immediate priority; however, the need for cost-effective modernization solutions is growing. Recognizing this, Workday has challenged the status quo with affordable, efficient solutions that empower cities to reimagine service and improve lives.
By advocating for this shift, Workday fosters a future where even small cities can adopt and implement technologies once considered beyond their reach and utilize them to empower their communities.

A hybrid workforce has become a defining feature of our post-pandemic world, and small cities are no exception to this substantial shift. Employees now expect the same flexibility and accessibility in their professional lives that they enjoy in their personal lives. Workday understands the importance of this mobile-first approach, offering a spectrum of tools and solutions that empower employees to work efficiently from anywhere.
Workday is designed to empower individuals to dedicate more time to critical city operations. Workday’s cloud-based system is the only solution that brings HR, finance, and planning together for cities and organizations of all sizes to adapt with ease. This can help maximize employee engagement and encourage connectivity and collaboration to better serve the greater public good. By leveraging Workday in the evolving work landscape, small cities can optimize their operations, embrace flexibility, and harness the benefits of a workforce empowered by technology.
To truly thrive in the digital age, small cities must harness the power of data and cutting-edge technologies. Technological advancements, often associated with urban megacenters, are accessible to more than just the world's major hubs. They have immense potential for municipalities of all sizes. By integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), Workday can help revolutionize decision-making processes and enhance citizen outreach through what we call Smart Cities.
The Smart Cities movement leverages municipalities' real-time information to drive informed decision-making and deliver services that align with the community's evolving needs. Imagine a city that dynamically adapts to the needs of its citizens, anticipating challenges and proactively addressing them, regardless of its size—a future made possible through AI, ML, and other innovative technological solutions.
