Two public sector organizations across the U.S. and Canada modernize HR and payroll with Dayforce and OnActuate, improving compliance, efficiency, and workforce insight.
Seattle, WA (January 2026): Public sector employers across North America are modernizing HR and payroll to reduce risk, strengthen compliance, and gain real-time workforce insight. Recently, two local government organizations – Randall County, Texas and the Town of Tecumseh, Ontario – went live on Dayforce, a cloud-based HCM platform, with OnActuate as their implementation partner, continuing a growing pattern of successful public sector deployments.
Different Workforce Models, One Proven Platform
Different in geography and workforce size – Randall County, Texas with more than 600 employees, and the Town of Tecumseh, Ontario with approximately 200 – both shared a common priority: modernizing HR and payroll to better support their workforce. Each organization recently went live on Dayforce (HR, Payroll, and Time & Attendance) with OnActuate, replacing legacy, manual systems with a modern, cloud-based platform designed to scale with public sector needs.
Both organizations required sophisticated workforce management to support varied schedules, meal breaks, shift differentials, and overtime calculations – while following different operational paths. Tecumseh manages five unions and complex cross-department payroll workflows, while Randall County’s lean HR and payroll team required a streamlined solution that could address evolving U.S. overtime reporting requirements. In both cases, OnActuate partnered closely with stakeholders to configure Dayforce in alignment with each organization’s operating model while applying a consistent, proven delivery approach.
