Good transformation starts with the right decisions
A new platform is only one part of a workforce transformation. Organisations also need a clear decision, disciplined delivery and people who understand how work will change. Peake Consulting works across those needs, connecting technology choices with implementation and adoption.
What we do
Support for the decisions and delivery that matter
Peake works with executives and programme teams on workforce technology and transformation. We can advise on a specific decision, lead a defined stage or provide senior support through a complex programme.
We help organisations understand their needs, assess options and choose a practical way forward: HRIS and HCM strategy, market scans, business cases, requirements, RFPs, vendor evaluation and commercial comparison.
Programme leadership, governance, delivery assurance and executive decision support. We keep work aligned to business priorities and make risks and decisions visible early.
When a platform is already in place, we help identify where process, configuration, governance or adoption can improve across HR, recruitment, payroll and learning systems.
Change strategy, stakeholder engagement, readiness, communications and role-based learning, shaped around real tasks and workflows so people can practise what they will need to do.
Web-based training, application simulations, digital manuals and facilitator materials, developed to fit the platform, operating model and audience, with senior oversight and quality review.
How we work
Clear advice, close to delivery
Every engagement starts with the decision or outcome the organisation needs. We agree the scope, roles, evidence, working assumptions and approval points before work begins. Support can start at any stage:
01Clarify
the business need, current position and constraints.
02Shape
the options, scope, business case or delivery approach.
03Lead or assure
the work, keeping decisions, risks and responsibilities clear.
04Prepare
teams to use the change through practical communication, learning and adoption support.
A multi-year workforce transformation spanning job architecture, Workday Learning, HR letters automation, onboarding and induction, operating-model change, workforce management and systems training across Workday, UKG and Epicor.
The programme supported clearer workforce processes, stronger digital learning and improved system capability across frontline and corporate teams.
Training strategy, eight web-based training modules, more than 50 application simulations and eight digital programme manuals for a dispersed frontline workforce.
“The team were supportive and responsive to our needs and short turnaround time.”
Peake Consulting is senior-led. Clients know who is responsible, what each person will deliver and how quality, communication and escalation will be managed.
A better HRIS procurement process begins with internal clarity. Define the problem, success measures and decision principles before vendors demonstrate.
Should you select an HRIS platform and implementation partner in one process? Learn when separate decisions improve clarity, flexibility and accountability.
Employee numbers do not tell the whole HRIS story. Assess workforce types, awards, rostering, payroll, integrations and complexity before comparing platforms.
