In 2015, Dandara implemented COINS HCM as its Core HR application to centralize Human Resources functions for its housebuilding division. COINS HCM serves as the primary COINS HR system for transactional HR, supporting employee lifecycle activities across several business units based around the M25 and the Dandara Limited operating entities, with operational presence tied to Milton Keynes and other UK sites.
COINS HCM was configured to manage onboarding and offboarding workflows, employee record maintenance, grading structure enforcement and approval matrix controls. The implementation includes administration of employee terms and conditions, annual leave calculations and entitlement tracking, and modules to support succession planning and performance management, plus workforce planning inputs for annual bonus and salary review cycles.
The deployment integrates with third party pre employment verification via Experian to administer CRB checks, and it establishes operational handoffs to payroll and recruitment teams to ensure pay related changes and eligibility checks are propagated. The COINS HCM installation is used to generate HR management information, producing monthly analytical reports such as employee turnover, absence and holiday reports for senior managers.
Governance was implemented through audit processes on employee HR records within COINS HCM, enforcement of the approval matrix for new starters and pay changes, and HR Business Partner oversight to ensure compliance with relevant UK employment legislation. Operational responsibility is centered on HR Advisors working with senior managers and wider HR, recruitment and reward teams to drive consistent transactional processing and employee relations handling.

In 2015, Dandara implemented COINS ERP as its Construction ERP to centralize finance and project accounting for its Build to Rent business unit. COINS ERP became the primary application supporting divisional financial controls and reporting across the BTR division and regional finance teams.
The implementation focused on the COINS ERP core and the development of a BTR IT module within the main COINS application, configured to support month end processes, preparation of management accounts, budgeting and forecasting, and detailed financial modelling. Functional capabilities implemented included work in progress tracking, land spend commitment monitoring, cost variation collation into Quarterly Cost V Revenue reports, cashflow reporting and countdown reporting to drive monthly and quarterly delivery, plus balance sheet reconciliations and audit support.
Operational coverage centered on the divisional finance function with direct alignment to Commercial and Land teams, project teams and HR for payroll allocations and query resolution. The COINS ERP deployment supported cross functional workflows for budgeting inputs, cost variation meetings and the collation of information for Group reporting, providing a single source for financial and project data used by the Managing Director and Commercial Director.
Governance and process work streams were embedded alongside the technical deployment, including documentation of processes and controls, defined month end and variance commentary workflows, and clear ownership for external audit liaison. The Head of Finance and Divisional Chief Financial Officer roles were responsible for regional finance team development, enforcement of controls, and using COINS ERP outputs to inform risk and opportunity discussions with executive leadership.
