Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Mental Health P...

LONDON, February 1 /PRNewswire/ --     Manpower Software plc, a leading provider
of workforce optimisation and
electronic rostering solutions, is pleased to announce that Cambridgeshire
and Peterborough Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust has selected Manpower
Software's MAPS Healthroster solution after a comprehensive competitive OGC
tender process.



    David Wherrett, Director of Human Resources and Organisational
Development commented: "The flexibility of Manpower's e-rostering solution
for staff and management have been clearly illustrated throughout the
procurement processes. By utilising the technologies available to the Trust
we anticipate MAPS Healthroster will provide employees access to self-service
"live" data, linked to existing core information systems (ESR) and these
tools should give the Trust the ability to build appropriate skill mix and
patient acuity data that will support us in becoming a responsive, efficient
and effective service provider and market leader".



    The project includes interfaces between MAPS Healthroster and ESR
(Electronic Staff Record - the NHS HR and Payroll system). The largest
benefit of this work is the automated calculation of pay data in MAPS
Healthroster, which is then sent to ESR for payroll purposes - both
increasing the accuracy of pay and delivering large time saving for staff,
managers and the payroll department alike.



    Commenting on the announcement, Paul Scandrett, Manpower Software's
Healthcare Sales Director said: 'We are delighted to be selected by
Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust and look
forward to working with the team. We continue to build our impressive track
record in other NHS Trusts in the East of England region. This now brings the
total number of MAPS Healthroster customers to 31 NHS Trusts in England and
Wales.'
