US based on-demand software startup Workday is suppliying Flextronics global work force of 200,000 employees with a human-capital management software service. Flextronics selected Workday HCM to replace some 80 human-resources systems being used by the company in 30 countries, said Flextronics CIO David Smoley. The decision, he said, involved a "direct comparison with all the alternative, on-premise software vendors," which likely includes SAP and Oracle.

Among Workday's features are pre-developed interfaces that will let Flextronics link up its HCM service with providers of employee benefits, InformationWeek reported.
