Crown Commercial Service (CCS) is the UK’s largest public procurement organisation and operates as an executive agency of the Cabinet Office. By sharing its procurement expertise, CCS plays a critical role in helping public services to maximise their resources and ensure best-value contracts. Whether purchasing energy or emergency vehicles, CCS enables organisations to stay compliant with procurement regulations, achieve savings and support social value targets.
As a government department with a mandate to support easy and effective procurement, it was vital CCS found a payroll service that could handle its specific requirements and intricacies, while aligning with standards such as G-Cloud 14. In addition to these prerequisites, top priorities included: the security of sensitive payroll data and securing a solution that represented optimum value for money. Fulfilling these complex requirements, CGI has been a trusted partner to CCS for over two decades.
