In 2017 West Midlands Railway was awarded the Birmingham and West Midlands franchise and selected Oracle E-Business Suite HRMS as its Core HR platform to address urgent payroll continuity requirements at franchise handover. The franchise award created a fixed go-live window and immediate need to provision a payroll and HR solution that could accommodate complex rail employment contracts and union signoff requirements, without disrupting daily operations across the operator’s finance and payroll functions.
Claremont designed and configured Oracle E-Business Suite HR and Payroll modules to capture the intricate terms and conditions of railway staff contracts, implementing targeted customizations and process mappings so existing payroll workflows remained intact. The implementation approach reused the previous operator’s E-Business Suite payroll configuration by provisioning a purged and anonymized copy containing only West Midlands Railway staff records, a GDPR-focused data segregation strategy that avoided redeveloping core payroll processes while preserving functional continuity for pay runs.
The deployment was hosted on Claremont Cloud, a UK-based, Oracle-optimised virtualised platform with hard partitioning to support compliant Oracle licensing, and included Database Administration, 2nd and 3rd line DBA support, and third line functional and technical support. Integrations and ongoing development work included interfaces to support the new rail industry pensions scheme, and the managed services engagement established guaranteed incident response and resolution SLAs under a three year support contract to maintain patches, legislative updates, and system availability.
Claremont delivered the payroll solution in under three months to meet the franchise transition, enabling West Midlands Railway’s payroll team to run the December payroll immediately after cutover without operational disruption. The rapid delivery and managed services arrangement reduced the immediate cost and operational burden of standing up a new payroll environment, and Claremont continues to maintain and evolve the Oracle E-Business Suite HRMS instance while supporting WMR finance and payroll governance.
