ACE - Provision of Integrated HR and Payroll System

Trust required a fully integrated HR and Payroll platform operating from a single, authoritative dataset. The solution must enable compliant payroll and workforce administration in accordance with relevant legislation, HMRC requirements, Teachers'

Pension Scheme (TPS) and Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) regulations, statutory employment obligations, and sector best practice. It must also provide the transparency, reporting capability, and internal controls necessary to support efficient

Trust-wide operations. The Trust was seeking a platform that provides operational flexibility, allowing payroll processing to be delivered either in-house or via a managed service within the same system environment. The Trust may transition between these delivery models during the contract term and therefore required a solution that enables this without system replacement or material disruption.
