Make ADP Celergo the centre of your global payroll
ADP Celergo consulting makes a global payroll hub real. Celergo is powerful for multi country payroll but only when it is designed around your HR data, local providers, approval flows and finance needs. We help you define which countries land in the hub, how data will be exchanged, what reports Finance will see and how to control changes. The result is repeatable payroll across geographies, with lower risk and better insight.
Celergo Discovery and Global Design
We start with discovery to understand your current payroll estate, including in country providers, HR source systems, finance posting needs, approval layers and compliance hotspots. We map which countries are high complexity, which can be standardised and which need phased onboarding. From here we design the ADP Celergo hub architecture with clear responsibilities between HQ, regional teams and vendors.
In this phase we also define the master data model, naming conventions, calendar and cut off rules. This gives you an agreed global payroll design before any build starts, so scope creep and vendor disputes are reduced.
Celergo Implementation and Country Onboarding
We configure ADP Celergo based on the approved design and then onboard countries in a controlled sequence. For each country we confirm local statutory requirements, data elements, gross to net inputs and reporting. We build country packs and test scenarios so no one is surprised at first payroll. We keep the core hub standard while allowing country level specifics through configuration.
During onboarding we run dry runs and parallel payroll where needed. This proves the hub is calculating and routing data correctly and that your country teams can operate it.
Celergo Interfaces and Data Flows
Global payroll consolidation only works if data flows in and out of Celergo cleanly. We design HR to Celergo interfaces to send hires, changes, terminations and time to payroll on a schedule. We also define outbound interfaces from Celergo to finance, HR analytics, data warehouse or in country processors. This usually involves SFTP or API based exchange, validations and error handling.
We document every file specification, field mapping and retry logic so internal IT and support teams can maintain the integrations without going back to the vendor for every change.
Celergo Controls, Reporting and Audit
A global payroll hub must be auditable. We set up controls around approvals, segregation of duties, payment files, exchange rates, retro events and off cycle runs. We define KPIs for timeliness and accuracy so you can monitor vendors against SLAs. We also build reporting views so HR, Finance and compliance teams can see payroll by country, entity, cost centre or period.
This structure reduces payroll leakage, overpayments and rework and makes internal or external audits faster.
Celergo BAU Enablement and Optimisation
Once Celergo is live, the goal is to keep it stable. We hand over SOPs, runbooks and role guides to your HR and payroll teams. We also put in a change and release cadence so new countries, new fields or new statutory reports can be onboarded without affecting existing countries.
We can stay on as an advisory partner to monitor hub performance, improve interfaces, refine controls and support transition to new providers when contracts renew.

Frequently asked questions
About Our ADP Celergo Consulting Services
What is ADP Celergo consulting?
ADP Celergo consulting is a structured service to design, implement and optimise Celergo as a global payroll hub. It covers discovery, hub design, interfaces, country onboarding, controls and training so payroll can run consistently across geographies.
Can you connect Celergo to our HR system and finance system?
Yes. We design inbound interfaces from HR to send people data and outbound interfaces from Celergo to send payroll results, journals and reports to Finance. We define file formats, schedules and error handling so BAU teams can support it.
Do you support in country providers?
Yes. Many clients keep some in country providers. We map what belongs in Celergo and what stays with the provider, then build the interfaces and controls so data is aligned and auditable.
How do you manage multi country differences?
We standardise what can be standardised in the hub and keep country specifics in configuration or country packs. This keeps the hub clean while staying compliant locally.
Do you run parallel payroll?
For higher risk countries we run dry runs and parallel payroll to compare Celergo results against current payroll. Any variances are analysed and fixed before go live.
Can you help with controls and audit?
Yes. We set up approvals, SoD, error logs, SLA reporting and management dashboards. This makes audits faster and reduces payroll leakage.
What if we add more countries next year?
We build a repeatable onboarding pack. New countries can follow the same steps and documentation without redesigning the hub.
Do you train our team?
We deliver runbooks, SOPs and role based training for HR, payroll and Finance. Your team learns how to run Celergo, raise changes and work with vendors.
Is Celergo right for hybrid payroll estates?
Often yes. Celergo can be the single reporting and control layer even when some entities remain on local payroll. We will confirm this fit in discovery.
How long does an ADP Celergo implementation take?
Timeline depends on number of countries, integrations and data quality. A core hub with a few priority countries can be delivered in a short, phased rollout, with the rest following in waves.
