Frimley Park Hospital NHS Foundation Trust Selects Manpower Software's MAPS Healthroster


LONDON, July 3 /PRNewswire/ --     Manpower Software plc, the leading provider of workforce optimisation
software applications and rostering solutions in the UK healthcare market, is
pleased to announce that Frimley Park Hospital NHS Foundation Trust has
selected Manpower Software's MAPS Healthroster solution for nurse rostering,
with the intention of Trust-wide rollout to over 2,000 staff.

Mary Dunne, Director of Nursing, Quality and Patient Services at Frimley
Park Hospital NHS Foundation Trust commented: 'It was of primary importance
that the Trust purchased an e-rostering system which the nursing staff found
easy to use as they will be the main users of the system. During our
evaluations it was very clear that MAPS Healthroster was the product which
the nursing staff preferred to use. From the evidence supplied by various
companies, Manpower Software presented greater experience at implementing
this system successfully for what is an important and challenging project.'

Key to choosing the solution was a successful Roster Assessment, its
proven e-rostering capability along with its strong user base in NHS Trusts
across the local area. Frimley Park Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is also an
existing user of Manpower Software's Bank Staff Management System (BSMS) part
of the MAPS Health Suite. Expected benefits from the integrated solution
include efficient use of staff, time savings for senior nurses, improved
fairness for nursing staff and accurate payroll.

Paul Scandrett, Manpower Software's Director of Healthcare commented: 'We
are delighted to have the opportunity to work with the Trust. Particularly
pleasing is the fact that we were selected following an exceptionally
rigorous and professional 'best value' assessment. This demonstrates the
Trusts detailed approach to the project which will stand them in good stead
for the rollout and highlights once again our credibility in the NHS.'
