Dave Duffield, the well known and respected founder of Peoplesoft, is about to launch a new software start-up called Workday, which looks set to begin by building software tools for managing human resources.
Indeed the buzz is that Duffield and the 35 odd people working with (mainly ex-Peroplesoft folk that left Oracle) him will stick to what they know and launch an HR and financials back-office software outfit with a twist. Could that twist be on-demand software or Web2.0 business model?
I guess we're about to find out. And they'll need a clear USP to compete with the trend towards intergrated suites of business applications which led Oracle to snap up Peoplesoft in the first place.
