Arqiva | Communications | 2300 | $368M | United Kingdom | Oracle | Oracle Payroll Cloud | Payroll | 2018 |
In 2018, Arqiva implemented Oracle Payroll Cloud as part of a broader Oracle HCM Cloud suite deployment. The implementation targeted core Payroll functions to support enterprise payroll lifecycle management for the Communications company, and Claremont served as the systems integrator with an embedded HCM Solution Architect on the program.
The Oracle Payroll Cloud deployment encompassed payroll processing engines, pay element configuration, statutory and tax rule configuration, payroll run scheduling, retroactive pay handling, and payroll reporting and audit controls. Configurations emphasized standardization of pay elements and tax treatments consistent with the Payroll category, with Oracle Payroll Cloud used for calculation, validation and payroll reporting.
The program coordinated closely with HR, Finance, IT and Security teams to define interfaces and handoffs, and liaised with decommissioning and integration teams to manage peripheral system connections. Integration ownership was assigned to integration teams responsible for workforce data feeds, payroll journal exports and downstream reporting consumers.
Discovery workshops were led by the HCM Solution Architect, with business users and the Project Manager preparing selection criteria and validating the implementation partner's understanding of functionality. The project also analyzed and formalized in-house support processes for ongoing HCM Cloud operations and established governance for business change, training and phased rollout across payroll stakeholders.

RiverStone Management | Insurance | 200 | $150M | United Kingdom | Oracle | Oracle Cloud ERP | ERP Financial | 2019 |
In 2019, RiverStone Management migrated from Oracle E-Business Suite to Oracle Cloud ERP within a six month programme, moving core ERP operations to a cloudbased system architecture. The implementation targeted the company finance function under the ERP Financial category and was delivered with Claremont as the implementation partner, establishing Oracle Cloud ERP as the primary financial ledger and reporting platform.
Configuration emphasis focused on core financial management and month end close workflows, replacing manual Excel based reconciliations and statutory reporting steps with ERP Cloud processes and Cloud reporting tools. Oracle Cloud ERP was instrumented to streamline group reporting, and configuration work included closing automation and embedded cloud reporting capabilities to reduce manual consolidation tasks.
The new systems landscape pairs Oracle Cloud ERP with Sapiens, creating an operational integration between policy administration and finance systems, and supporting RiverStone's Solvency II reporting requirements through the Cloud reporting toolset. This integration positioned Oracle Cloud ERP to act as the authoritative finance system for statutory and internal reporting across the group, and to accept policy and transactional feeds from Sapiens for accounting and regulatory purposes.
Governance and rollout were executed over a compressed timeline, with Claremont leading the migration and cutover activities to minimize upgrade disruption and ongoing maintenance overhead. Process changes emphasized replacing spreadsheet driven routines with governed ERP Cloud processes, shifting month end ownership into system enforced workflows and centralized reporting governance.
Reported outcomes included reduced ongoing system maintenance costs and less disruption from periodic upgrades, a shortened month end closing cycle, improved group reporting through fewer Excel driven activities, verified support for Solvency II reporting, and a stable platform architecture that simplifies adding the insurance books of future acquisitions to Oracle Cloud ERP.

West Midlands Railway | Government | 2953 | $870M | United Kingdom | Oracle | Oracle E-Business Suite Payroll | Payroll | 2017 |
In 2017 West Midlands Railway implemented Oracle E-Business Suite Payroll, a Payroll application, to establish a controlled payroll capability after being awarded the franchise. Claremont designed and implemented the solution in under three months and deployed the system into Claremont Cloud to meet the franchise handover deadline.
The implementation addressed an immediate operational risk caused by a short turnaround between operators, where the previous operator ran payroll as a bureau. Claremont provisioned a copy of the previous operator’s E-Business Suite Payroll, purged and anonymized non‑WMR personal data to achieve GDPR compliance, and delivered a tenant containing only West Midlands Railway staff and contracts so payroll processes could continue without redevelopment.
Configuration work focused on functional payroll modules for complex rail employment contracts, bespoke contract and terms management, and the customizations required to preserve existing payroll processes. Oracle E-Business Suite Payroll was configured to mirror the incumbent processes used by WMR’s payroll team, which eliminated the need for end user retraining and allowed the December payroll to be run on the new platform without operational disruption.
The solution was hosted on a UK based virtualized Claremont Cloud environment, architected with hard partitioning to align with Oracle licensing, and supported under a three year Managed Services agreement. Claremont provides second and third line database administration, third line functional and technical support, industry leading service level agreements for incident response and resolution, and has developed interfaces to support the new rail industry pensions scheme.
Governance included recognition of the sector’s union signoff requirements for payroll changes and a rollout approach designed to preserve continuity for drivers and payroll staff during the franchise handover. The project was delivered before the contractual deadline, WMR subsequently signed a three year managed services contract with Claremont, and the finance leadership reported a material reduction in operational anxiety because payroll continuity and support were secured.
