HCM technology keeps evolving. New capabilities create opportunities to simplify processes, improve experiences, strengthen compliance, and help teams work more effectively.
But making new technology available is only the beginning.
Someone still has to determine which capabilities matter to the business, understand how they fit within the existing environment, and make the right technical decisions about how to use them.
The pressure to move faster can mask growing workforce strain. Join our next Dayforce Coffee Collab to explore how to deliver results today while building a workforce that can sustain them.
Save your spot
Dayforce is designed to help organizations manage complex workforce needs effectively, and many customers successfully manage and evolve their Dayforce environment using their own teams and the resources available across Dayforce. But as organizations grow, their priorities can change. Some want to accelerate adoption of new capabilities, optimize established processes, strengthen readiness, or bring additional Dayforce expertise into strategic initiatives.
See the Dayforce Agentic HCM platform in action
For those organizations, Dayforce Technical Account Management Services provide an additional layer of technical advisory, helping teams build on a strong foundation and accelerate the value they’re already realizing.
For customers who want an additional level of technical partnership, Dayforce offers three tiers of Technical Account Management Services: Plus, Advanced, and Premium.
Choose the level of technical guidance that fits your needs
Dayforce Technical Account Management Services complement the other partnerships and resources available to Dayforce customers by providing proactive technical advisory focused on helping organizations manage and improve their Dayforce environment.
A Technical Account Manager (TAM) brings deep Dayforce expertise to help your team make informed technical decisions, identify opportunities to enhance platform value and performance, and prepare for important milestones and change.
And that technical guidance can show up in measurable operational outcomes.
In a 2026 proprietary analysis comparing Dayforce enterprise and large-enterprise customers with and without a TAM, customers working with a TAM had an 18% higher on-time payroll commit rate and demonstrated 12% greater HR team efficiency.1
Our new tiered model gives organizations three ways to access that expertise, with the level of engagement increasing based on the depth of technical guidance they need.
Plus: Strengthen your team with practical technical guidance
The Plus tier helps teams manage and improve their existing Dayforce environment through practical technical guidance.
Your team gets access to a named TAM for guidance on solution options and best practices, Dayforce capabilities, health checks, and technical office hours. Plus also helps teams prepare for releases and year-end activities while building the knowledge and self-sufficiency to manage their environment more effectively.
Advanced: Add proactive technical guidance as your needs evolve
As your technology and organizational needs evolve, technical guidance may need to become more proactive and tailored to your environment and priorities.
The Advanced tier provides a named TAM who delivers tailored technical recommendations, identifies adoption and enhancement opportunities, analyzes trends and risks, and helps assess the impact of upcoming releases. Your TAM can also bring your requirements and recurring themes to Dayforce Product and Technology teams.
The level of engagement increases as well, with quarterly health checks, up to 16 hours of technical office hours each month, and monthly governance meetings.
Premium: Bring technical expertise into strategic planning
For complex environments requiring a deeper level of partnership, Premium provides a dedicated TAM and expanded strategic engagement.
Technical recommendations can be aligned directly to business priorities, while data-driven advisory, continuous improvement planning, and deeper collaboration with Dayforce Product and Technology teams help organizations continually enhance their environment. Premium also adds greater readiness oversight and governance to help manage strategic priorities, risks, and business objectives.
Health checks become continuous, technical office hours are unlimited, and recurring governance can occur weekly.
The progression from Plus to Advanced to Premium reflects more than increasing service hours. Each tier provides a different level of engagement across technical advisory, ongoing enhancement, and readiness, allowing organizations to match the depth and cadence of support to their evolving needs.
Turn technical expertise into better outcomes
Technical Account Management Services aren’t intended to replace the expertise inside an organization. A TAM extends that expertise with deep Dayforce knowledge, proactive recommendations, and best practices, helping internal teams accelerate enhancements, build their own knowledge, and spend more time on strategic priorities.
That can be particularly valuable as the expertise required to manage an HCM environment evolves. New capabilities need to be evaluated against existing processes and business priorities. Releases create new configuration and adoption considerations. Regulatory requirements change. Acquisitions and expansion introduce new demands, while the team still has to manage the day-to-day environment.
At Danone, TAM support helped strengthen compliance controls by reducing meal-penalty corrections by 1.5 hours per week and preventing up to three payment errors per pay period. Automation and self-service also helped reduce administrative workload, with 73% of transactions processed through self-service and two HR resources transitioning from transactional work to higher-value activities.
For HR leaders, those outcomes connect the technical partnership to a bigger objective: helping the existing team operate more effectively while improving the performance of the HCM environment it manages.
Your level of engagement can evolve with your needs
An organization that needs Plus today may not always need Plus. The same is true of Advanced or Premium.
As your business, technology, and priorities evolve, the tiered approach gives you the flexibility to adjust the level of technical engagement alongside them. That could mean moving from periodic access to expertise, to proactive ongoing advisory, to a dedicated technical partnership as your needs change.
The question isn't which tier offers the most, but what level of engagement gives your team the technical guidance it needs to make informed decisions, continually enhance your Dayforce environment, and prepare for what's next.
