Background

The scope of work involves managing payroll for around 550 employees, which includes processing payroll runs, handling adjustments, and ensuring compliance with all relevant legislation. The contractor must also provide comprehensive reporting and support services, including an employee payslip portal and a dedicated helpdesk. A structured transition plan is crucial to maintain operational continuity and minimize disruptions.

Key personnel required include Account Manager, Implementation Manager, Payroll Manager, Payroll Administrators, and a Systems Manager.', 'summary_detailed': 'Bord na Móna PLC is running a PQQ (reference CM 11/25) to shortlist providers for managed payroll services. The criticality of payroll is emphasised — providers must show capability, capacity, and resilience for a stable, high-quality service with minimal operational disruption, and a well-governed transition approach is an essential component. Required key personnel include Account Manager, Implementation Manager, Payroll Manager, Payroll Administrators, and Systems Manager. Minimum turnover threshold is €3,600,000 in relevant payroll services in any of the last three financial years. Applicants must complete GDPR/Data Protection by Design and by Default compliance statement (Section 4) and quality management questionnaire.
