In 2011 Cityguard implemented MYOB Exo Payroll to centralize employee pay processing. The deployment standardized payroll operations for more than 100 staff in New Zealand and placed MYOB Exo Payroll at the center of the company Payroll function.
MYOB Exo Payroll was configured to run fortnightly payroll cycles and to calculate statutory PAYE obligations, supporting the company workflow for monthly PAYE submissions and bimonthly GST processing. The implementation covered core payroll capabilities including gross to net calculations, tax withholding, leave and deduction handling, and generation of payroll reports used in monthly management reporting.
Staff rostering was managed with Roster Manager using Time Target, and roster outputs were operationally aligned with payroll runs to ensure accurate time capture for pay processing. Operational scope included finance and administrative functions, with responsibilities spanning invoicing, AP and AR management, bank reconciliations, financial report preparation and cash forecast support alongside payroll administration.
Governance centered on a dedicated payroll processor who executed fortnightly payroll runs and managed statutory filings, while finance staff produced management packs and reconciliations derived from payroll records. Process controls emphasized regular payroll cadence, tax filing schedules and the integration of rostering data into payroll administration.

In 2014 Cityguard implemented Microsoft Azure Cloud Services to host its public website, establishing Microsoft Azure Cloud Services as the primary platform for the company’s Application Hosting and Computing Services. The decision positioned cloud-hosted infrastructure at the center of Cityguard’s online presence while keeping the scope focused on customer-facing web services.
The deployment leverages platform-level hosting and compute capabilities consistent with Application Hosting and Computing Services, including web application hosting, scalable compute instances, and object storage for site assets and media. Configuration reflects standard cloud patterns such as provisioning of compute instances, a load balanced web tier, and storage for backups and static content, enabling straightforward operational management of the website.
Operational coverage is centered on Cityguard’s website and related digital channels serving New Zealand users, with application-level governance maintained through Azure administrative controls. Microsoft Azure Cloud Services is referenced directly in site infrastructure, and ongoing management is handled via the cloud provider’s console and platform tooling to support the company’s online service delivery.
