City on the ball with new HR system
The software, provided by Cascade, based in Pudsey, Leeds, will allow the club to replace its outdated, manual, paper-based processes and spreadsheets with an internet browser-based system, enabling consolidation of data and a reduction in paperwork.
Pat Myerscough, the club's systems technology analyst, said: "We wanted a system that could be tailored to match our own look and feel in terms of the club's brand but, more importantly, we sought software that could be used by 'non-techies'. We were impressed by what Cascade had
to offer."

Hide AdHeather Vitty, client services director at Cascade, added: "For an organisation such as Manchester City Football Club, change happens on a daily basis, so the utmost level of flexibility is required within the HR department."
She added: "The ease of integration means that the system will work with the club's existing IT infrastructure and other business packages in the future."
A pilot group of users is familiarising itself with the self-service module before it will be rolled out to the whole organisation.
