Manpower Software Announces Integration of MAPS...

LONDON, June 2 /PRNewswire/ --     Manpower Software plc, a leading workforce 
optimisation applications
provider in the UK healthcare market, is pleased to announce a comprehensive
interface between its industry leading e-Rostering and Bank Staff Management
solutions in response to the growing requirement from its NHS customer base.
NHS customers will have the opportunity to benefit from a stronger more
functionally rich offering.



    Sue Kitching, Project Manager & Implementation Lead at West Hertfordshire
Hospitals Trust commented: "Manpower Software's experienced team have been
supporting the Trust through the testing phases. The interface between the
two solutions allows us to improve the accuracy of temporary staff data, in
turn enhancing the overall patient experience across all wards. This will
provide the Trust with the electronic support required to run an integrated
Bank and Rostering capability."



    The interface will deliver a flexible, seamless transfer of temporary
staff data from MAPS Healthroster to the BSMS Bank solution. Benefits of the
interface include: better user experience, streamlined processes along with
increased data accuracy. The two solutions combine to increase overall
accuracy of data and reduce processing costs by eliminating the need to
re-key MAPS Healthroster data into the Bank solution. It will also help save
time and money over building a customised interface and will enable Trusts to
eliminate temporary staff working double shifts.



    Commenting on the announcement, Paul Scandrett, Manpower Software's Head 
of Healthcare said:



    "Following the acquisition of Key IT Systems we are now
delighted to announce a fully integrated offering. This is a significant
milestone for Manpower Software, who is the only supplier in the market with
a deployed integrated solution for e-Rostering and Bank Staff Management
solutions."
