Mitrefinch Workforce Management System invaluable to Scottish Government, 5 years on

Providing for the daily needs of up to 5.1 million individuals, whilst juggling the administration of 500,000 staff across 50 sites nationwide is a mammoth task by any standards.

Which is why, in 2005, the Scottish Government and its Agencies made the decision to invest in an integrated Flexitime and Access Control system from Mitrefinch. The Government required a complete system that could function smoothly across multiple sites, capture and store a wide range of employee data and ensure tight security throughout government buildings. According to the Scottish Government, “Mitrefinch ticked all the boxes.”

The installation across 10 sites was an understandably epic affair, but the Government was impressed by the willingness of the “excellent” Mitrefinch team to “go that extra mile to help deliver the project.”

Now, five years on, the Scottish Government remains a satisfied Mitrefinch customer. Mitrefinch hardware has been rolled out at a further 20 sites and a number of other organisations are networked to the system. The system has centralised Time and Attendance monitoring whereas before, the Government had many variations all requiring separate administration.

Since the installation of Mitrefinch’s application, the Government has realised the benefits of a central system in that it saves on costs and administration time. There is also greater flexibility in accessing information as and when required.

The Scottish Government's Physical Security Manager said, “I find the joined up aspect of the Time and Attendance, Access Control and Pass Imaging and production modules very easy to use and is able to cover all the areas I require. The network facility is especially good for accessing remote locations. I can basically monitor the whole estate from the comfort of my desk”.

Mitrefinch CEO, Debbie Guppy, adds that "In providing for the Scottish Government, Mitrefinch have shown ourselves to be invaluable to a large-scale, multi-site organisation".
