Technological Tools and Structure Several gaps can be considered when working within a global framework. One gap is inconsistent platforms. According to the Nimble case study, Whitney stated, using Workday getting the system as close to best-in-class as possible instead of choosing the best-in-class system for each HR category and bringing together different systems and having potential issues integrating them (Bahrami, 2015). Inconsistent platforms cause inconsistency within the HR function. This means if one system works in the US, it does not necessarily mean that it would work efficiently overseas. Nimble needs to identify programs within Workday that benefit the organization overseas and still produce the work or results needed to carry on the business. The integration of other systems in the future will create more problems in the long term to get the necessary information. Thus, implementing systems that won't speak to one another in the future. Therefore, implementing the right structure in place to integrate and operate the system. Another gap would be deciding where to launch globally first. Conducting business overseas comes with several barriers that a US company needs to be addressed. One barrier is language. Therefore, Nimble needs to determine whether to launch in an English country first before entering a non-English country because of the language barrier. For example, they are entering into Canada instead of Japan because, in Canada, English is one of the primary languages there. Also, Nimble needs to think about phases on how they launch their systems so that they don't lose money. For example, one phase could be to roll out all in an English based
