Guidehouse has successfully led the City of Garland, Texas to a successful go-live of Workday Financial Management, marking a transformative leap in the city’s financial operations and digital modernization strategy. The cloud-based ERP implementation replaces manual processes with automated, transparent, and integrated financial workflows across the entire municipality.

  • Full Workday Financial Management suite now live for City of Garland
  • Modules deployed: Foundation Data Model, accounting, procurement, inventory, projects, expenses, banking, customer accounts
  • Includes Workday Prism Analytics and custom integrations
  • Key wins: automated payroll accounting (saving 1 day per pay period), real-time cash visibility, centralized procurement & inventory
  • Manual invoicing and fragmented systems eliminated
  • Extensive change management ensured smooth adoption across departments

Transforming Public Sector Finance

Before the deployment, Garland struggled with disconnected procurement, manual invoicing, and siloed inventory tracking. Guidehouse’s structured implementation and hands-on partnership delivered immediate operational gains:

  • One full automation of payroll accounting and bank reconciliation
  • centralized procurement and inventory with built-in approvals
  • on-demand reporting and complete audit trails
  • real-time visibility into cash position and month-end close acceleration

"This project has been transformative for Garland," said Matt Watson, Chief Financial Officer of the City of Garland. "Guidehouse brought structure, expertise, and a true spirit of partnership to every phase. With Workday Financial Management, we now have the tools and transparency to make faster, more informed decisions for our community."

"We're proud to support the City of Garland in achieving this milestone," said Christine Binnicker, Director at Guidehouse. "This go-live showcases how thoughtful collaboration and smart design can deliver a modern Workday solution that drives efficiency, transparency, and control."
