FrontierSolutions is Australia's specialist Workday advisory firm operating at the intersection of Workday and AI — built for a fast‑changing environment where traditional implementation and advice are no longer enough.
We help enterprise and government organisations unlock genuine value from Workday's capabilities and the latest AI enhancements — independently, without implementation conflicts.
FrontierSolutions is an Australia‑based Workday Advisory Partner. We support enterprise and government organisations to implement, optimise and evolve Workday — bringing clarity across HR, Finance, operating models and emerging AI capabilities.
We're not just system advisors. We help you connect Workday to the way your organisation actually works — its people, processes, decisions and future direction — so you can move with confidence and realise meaningful value in a fast‑changing environment.
No two Workday journeys are the same. Some clients need us before they've signed a licence; others need us mid-implementation when things have gone sideways; others are post go-live and want to unlock AI. We meet you exactly where you are — and our scope, depth, and commercial model flex to match.
We carry no implementation revenue, no Workday licence margin, and no referral fees from services partners. Our only financial incentive is to give you the best possible advice. When we tell you not to activate an agent, or that your SI is underperforming, or that your business case doesn't stack up — we mean it, because nothing else is at stake for us.
We assemble a team of highly experienced experts tailored to your scope — each bringing extensive, hands‑on experience in their field. Our model is intentionally flexible, scaling up or down based on what you need. We move fast, deliver quick turnarounds, and work side‑by‑side with you to solve real problems.
At FrontierSolutions, we support you at every stage of your Workday journey — Plan, Implement, Innovate. Our team brings deep experience and the flexibility to shape our services around your needs, so together we can deliver the best outcomes for you and your organisation.
For organisations considering Workday or expanding their estate. We build the case for change — quantifying the ROI, modelling total cost of ownership, and producing a CFO-ready business case that gives the board a clear basis for decision.
For organisations already on Workday. We assess your data foundation, Illuminate use case opportunity, Flex Credits budget position, and governance gaps — then deliver an 18–24 month AI roadmap that is costed, sequenced, and board-ready.
Once you've committed to Workday, choosing the right implementation partner is the most consequential decision you'll make. We run the vendor evaluation, manage the RFI/RFP, and advise on contract terms — entirely on your side of the table.
Hands-on alongside your SI when you need an independent client-side voice doing the work — change management, business requirements facilitation, data migration advisory, and UAT oversight. We work with your SI, not against them, but we answer only to you.
Independent oversight of your Workday programme — client-side PMO, delivery assurance, QA governance, and steering committee support. We carry no implementation revenue, so our only incentive is to protect your programme, your budget, and your go-live date.
Go-live is the start, not the finish. We measure whether your business case outcomes are being achieved — adoption rates, configuration quality, security posture, and feature uptake — and build the roadmap for what comes next.
Workday releases new features and enhancements twice a year. We review the upcoming release in the context of your configuration, identify the changes that matter to your organisation, and guide your team through a structured adoption plan — so you stay current and capture value with every update.
End-to-end delivery across the Workday AI agent stack. We identify high‑value use cases, configure and activate Illuminate™ and Sana™ agents, build custom agents using Workday Build, Extend and Flowise, and establish the governance framework — including Agent System of Record (ASOR) and Microsoft Entra Agent ID integration — to manage agents safely at scale.
We launched FrontierSolutions because organisations need a new kind of Workday partner — one that can implement Workday in a world being reshaped by AI, where traditional approaches are no longer enough.
FrontierSolutions combines deep Workday expertise with real experience in automation and AI across the broader ecosystem. This allows us to advise and deliver at the frontier of a fast‑changing environment, helping you get more value from Workday today and stay ahead of what's coming next.

Julia brings two decades of experience leading HR and Finance transformation across complex organisations, with deep expertise in Workday, cloud platforms and AI‑enabled operating models. She has been part of the Workday ecosystem since 2016, founding and scaling Deloitte's Workday Financials practice in Australia and delivering large‑scale, high‑impact programmes across APAC. She later led Accenture's Microsoft business across Australia and New Zealand, giving her a rare blend of Workday depth and broader digital, data and cloud capability.
Julia's approach to transformation is grounded in the belief that HR, Finance and technology are interconnected systems — not separate workstreams. She designs and delivers programmes holistically, ensuring people, process, data and technology move forward together so change is sustainable, human‑centred and genuinely embedded.
A mother of two, Julia founded the business to build a firm that reflects her values — honest, collaborative and deeply human transformation that improves how organisations operate and how people experience work.
"Workday creates possibility. The real transformation happens when organisations know how to use it well."
Lourens is a seasoned Data & AI leader with over two decades of experience building and scaling technology-driven enterprises across Australia, New Zealand and global markets.

Known for operating at the intersection of strategy and execution, Lourens has partnered with boards, CEOs and executive teams to shape AI strategy, stand up large-scale AI programs, and deliver transformation at enterprise scale. From launching market-leading AI practices to deploying AI solutions used by thousands of frontline users, he brings a pragmatic, high-impact approach to innovation — focused on value, velocity, and building what actually works in the real world.
Outside of work, Lourens loves spending time off-grid, exploring and adventuring with his wife and two boys.
