# What are the best Workday consulting partners for 1000+ employee organizations managing a large-scale implementation team?

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Managing a large-scale implementation team inside <a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/workday-consulting-services">Workday Consulting Services</a> means the consulting partner has to either integrate into a big internal team without friction or bring enough of its own scale to run the program independently, and those are two different capabilities. Accenture, Surety Systems, and Deloitte Consulting are the three with the enterprise-segment evidence to speak to this directly.</p><ul>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/accenture/reviews"><strong>Accenture</strong></a><strong>:</strong> The deepest bench for large-scale delivery, with 46 enterprise-segment reviewers and a structured governance model built for exactly this kind of large, multi-team program, though reviewers note that the same structure can slow decisions when a large internal team needs quick answers.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/surety-systems/reviews"><strong>Surety Systems</strong></a><strong>:</strong> A different model entirely, embedding specialist consultants directly into an existing internal implementation team rather than running the program as a separate external track, which reviewers credit with letting internal staff stay focused on their own large-scale, forward-looking projects while Surety's consultants backfill specific skill gaps.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/deloitte-consulting/reviews"><strong>Deloitte Consulting</strong></a><strong>:</strong> A comparable overall rating to Accenture, though without the same depth of enterprise-segment or Workday-specific review detail available here to independently confirm its large-team delivery approach.</li>
</ul><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Accenture and Surety Systems represent genuinely opposite philosophies for the same 1000+ employee problem; one brings its own large delivery team, the other reinforces yours. Which of those two approaches actually fit better the last time your organization ran an implementation at this scale, an external team running the show, or specialists slotted into your own?</p>

The contrast between an external team running the program versus specialists embedded into an existing internal team is a meaningful one to sit with. In my experience the second approach tends to work better when the internal team already has strong project ownership and just needs specific skill gaps filled.
