Crown Ridge Group helps HR, Finance, and IT teams get more from their Workday investment — through strategic advisory, embedded advocacy, and hands-on optimization. Not implementation. Alignment.

Crown Ridge Group helps organizations maximize their Workday HCM investment through strategic advisory and embedded advocacy — not implementation. We work alongside your team to evaluate configurations, guide design decisions, and ensure your Workday environment is built to support how your organization actually operates.


Modernize and realign your HR systems by improving configuration, processes, and data—reducing manual work, eliminating inefficiencies, and ensuring your system can scale with the business.


Make your data reliable, consistent, and usable. When data is fragmented or inconsistent, teams fall back on spreadsheets and manual work. We help structure how data is managed, reported, and maintained—so leaders can trust what they’re seeing and make better decisions with confidence.


Ensure the right people have the right access—without creating risk. Most organizations either over-assign access or struggle to maintain proper controls over time. We help structure security in a way that aligns with how your business actually operates—improving visibility, reducing risk, and supporting audit readiness without slowing teams down.


When a Workday implementation is underway, Crown Ridge Group serves as your embedded advocate — working alongside your implementation partner to ensure your organization’s priorities are represented at every milestone. Damien bridges the gap between technical delivery and business outcomes, keeping teams aligned and accountable throughout.


Simplify how work gets done across your organization. As companies grow, processes become inconsistent, manual, or overly complex. We redesign workflows to be clear, efficient, and scalable—reducing friction across teams and ensuring your systems support how work actually happens.


When your team needs execution support without adding headcount, CRG embeds directly within your organization to drive Workday improvements, resolve ongoing issues, and keep your systems running at their best.

Damien Benson founded Crown Ridge Group after more than a decade inside the Workday ecosystem — seeing firsthand how poor system design and reactive support leave organizations stuck. CRG was built to fix that for good.
