| MHR (formerly MidlandHR) | Legacy | MHR iTrent HR | Core HR | HCM | n/a | 2015 | 2015 |
In 2015, Norwood implemented MHR iTrent HR as its Core HR platform to centralize staffing, rostering and payroll for its residential respite services supporting children and young people with severe, complex and profound learning disabilities. The deployment covered HR administration and operational rostering for care homes and related service teams across the United Kingdom.
The implementation configured MHR iTrent HR modules including iTrent People Management and Payroll Systems, with rostering templates designed for shift patterns, on-call duty and medication administration responsibilities. Role-based configurations captured Home Manager, deputy and safeguarding lead responsibilities to support deputizing, referrals, new placements and attendance at service reviews.
Operational integrations were realized within the iTrent environment by aligning staff records, schedules and payroll data so scheduling fed pay calculations and provided staffing visibility. The operational scope included staff delivering personal care, mobility assistance and health care procedures, alongside administrative functions such as facilitation of donor visits.
Governance and process changes were implemented to embed policy and procedure development for infection control into HR and rostering workflows, formalizing on-call rosters and safeguarding responsibilities. Workflows routed deputizing approvals and placement referrals through configured role permissions and scheduling rules inside MHR iTrent HR.
The deployment established MHR iTrent HR as the system of record for Core HR functions supporting Norwood's respite services, consolidating People Management and Payroll Systems to govern role definitions, rostering and payroll alignment.

| Amazon Web Services (AWS) | Legacy | Amazon SES | Transactional Email | PaaS | n/a | 2019 | 2019 |
In 2019 Norwood implemented Amazon SES to handle website-driven email delivery for customer facing workflows. Amazon SES, operating in the Transactional Email category, is deployed on Norwood's website to support automated transactional messages and confirmation flows.
The Amazon SES deployment is configured to use standard transactional capabilities including SMTP and API send interfaces, verified sending domains, domain authentication via DKIM and SPF, template-based message rendering, bounce and complaint handling, and suppression lists. Amazon SES is used to centralize template management and delivery controls, with configuration sets and sending policies applied to govern throughput and rate limiting.
Operationally Amazon SES serves Norwood's website workflows, providing email delivery for donor communications, donation receipts, account notifications, and password reset flows. Norwood Amazon SES Transactional Email supports these business functions by separating programmatic transactional sends from other communications channels and by maintaining sender reputation controls tied to the website send domain.
Governance for the Amazon SES implementation centers on verified domain administration, authentication record management, template lifecycle and approval processes, and handling of bounces and complaints to maintain deliverability. Monitoring and alerting practices are implemented around delivery events and suppression activity to enforce consent and unsubscribe handling for the website email footprint.
