There were many positive comments from the judges, but one which stands out is: “Companies will often stay with a provider or software supplier, even if they are not happy, due to the fear of change and risks associated with moving software. So, to see one of the largest projects to ever be completed with such great success, should encourage others to not put up with their current arrangements, as change is possible if managed correctly. Payroll at its best!”.
