Africa-developed payroll and HR solution gains momentum in UK building sector

The Engage payroll and HR suite, exclusively distributed by CRS Technologies, a leading provider of solutions and services in the human capital management industry, is rapidly gaining traction in the UK’s building sector.

This follows the software’s recent accreditation from His Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC), the UK authority for tax, payment and customs, which means that the Engage suite is now officially recognised for use in UK-based payrolls.

“Engage is already trusted by organisations worldwide, from small businesses to large enterprises,” said CRS CEO Desmond Struwig. “The accreditation by HMRC is a testament to the software’s exceptional quality and excellence and demonstrates the capability of an African-developed solution to meet international standards.”

The Engage system integrates seamlessly with leading construction management systems such as Rib’s Buildsmart, and offers other innovative features unmatched by local counterparts.

For example, where expenses need to be allocated from contracts down to daily activities, the system’s flexibility allows clients to set up multiple levels of costing, ensuring precise tracking of costs.

Moreover, Engage empowers businesses to record the total cost of employment for each individual on the payroll. This covers various aspects, including employer contributions to pension and provident funds, leave accruals and leave/bonus provisions.

Beyond its payroll capabilities, Engage offers a fully integrated HR system to enhance overall efficiency. The software includes a comprehensive employee and manager self-service platform, fostering better communication and interaction within companies. Engage also ensures real-time information reporting compliance by integrating with various entities, including pension funds and banks.

Harnessing cloud computing’s prime benefits, the system offers comprehensive legislative compliance and robust security. Its integrated modules can be customised for any business, integrating seamlessly with most ERP systems such as SAP, Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Oracle Fusion.

Engage scales effortlessly from ten to 100 000 employees, accommodating various work models and streamlining processing with exceptional data-to-dashboard reporting.

“Achieving HMRC recognition is yet another exciting milestone in our commitment to delivering innovative technology solutions across the globe,” said Struwig. “This accreditation solidifies Engage’s reputation as not only a reliable and internationally recognised payroll and HR solution, but also the preferred choice for businesses across a diversity of industries.”
