Provision of an HR Software Package

The Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) is responsible for the commemoration of almost 1.7million members of the Commonwealth forces who gave their lives in the two world wars. CWGC cares for cemeteries and memorials at 23,000 locations, in 154 countries.

The Commission is headquartered in Maidenhead (United Kingdom) and employs approx. 1250 people across five main global areas as follows: • Africa & Asia Pacific Area (AAPA) • Mediterranean Area (MA) • Western Europe Area (WEA) • UK & Northern Area (UKNA) • Canada

The Commission is currently using CIPHR as their Central HR System Information System (HRIS) in the UK, supplemented with various local databases, spread sheets and manual recording processes. In addition, local payroll solutions are in place for some countries.

CWGC is looking to replace its current solution and processes with a unified global HRIS solution whilst continuing to use local payroll providers to ensure compliance with country specific legislation. As a minimum, potential tenderers will be required to meet the Global HRIS high level requirements as follows:

• Operate in multiple languages. • Manage multiple currency. • Interface with a range of local payroll providers. • Manager and Employee Self Service • Core HR Administration • Sickness/Absence Management • Learning & Development - Performance Management & Appraisals • Recruitment and Applicant Tracking • Reporting / Management Information and Analytics

Please note that this notice gives advance notice of future requirement. Potential tenderers are not asked to reply, or express an interest at this stage and should note that the dates stated elsewhere in this notice are estimates at this stage.

Once the requirement has been finalised a formal contract notice will be issued. A Prior Information notice has been published in the Open Journal of the European Union reference 2018/S-078537 (Amended 20/03/2018)
