Sales and Marketing

Ceridian generates business through its sales force and via marketing alliances with consulting firms and other providers of outsourced business services.

Strategy

Ceridian used more than half of its 2019 capital expenditures for software and technology.

After delivering against last year's five growth levers, in 2020, the company's strategy is to still focus on them. With market-leading innovations, Ceridian is the one-stop shop for Intelligent HCM solutions: Dayforce Wallet, with the first customer activations planned for the beginning of the second quarter in 2020; Dayforce Intelligence, which combines data with predictive technologies to identify and measure key metrics for each HCM process; and Dayforce Hub, which allows customers to tailor their Dayforce experience.

Mergers and Acquisitions

In mid-2020, Ceridian completed the acquisition of Excelity Global Solutions Pte Ltd., an Asia-based HCM service provider from the Everstone Group. "The acquisition of Excelity is an important next step in our global expansion and builds on our recent investment in Australia and New Zealand. We welcome our new colleagues, customers and partners, and we look forward to extending our HCM leadership in the Asia Pacific Japan region," said David Ossip, Chairman and CEO, Ceridian. 

In late 2019, Ceridian acquired RITEQ 1, a provider of enterprise workforce management solutions. "Australia and New Zealand are highly attractive markets, and we believe the acquisition of RITEQ, combined with Dayforce Payroll in Australia, truly positions Ceridian as a leading HCM provider in the region. I am delighted to meet our new colleagues, customers, and partners at next week's Executive Summits in Sydney and Melbourne," said David Ossip, Chairman and CEO, Ceridian.
