LONDON, May 21, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Workday (NASDAQ: WDAY), a leader in enterprise cloud applications for finance and human resources, and Crown Commercial Service (CCS) today announced they are building on their existing relationship with the signature of a new MoU which aims to expand the use of cloud technology and help drive innovation in the UK public sector.
