BOND INTERNATIONAL SOFTWARE PLC

CONTRACT WIN 

Alexander Mann Solutions Purchases Bond Adapt To 

Manage Online Recruitment for Three Major Clients 

Bond International Software, the world's leading provider of staffing software solutions, is pleased to announce that it has been chosen by the global recruitment specialist, Alexander Mann Solutions (AMS) to deploy its flagship software, Adapt, to three of its key existing clients.

Alexander Mann Solutions is the global leader in Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO). AMS will deploy Bond Adapt to manage its activity across three of its most notable clients - Vodafone, Zurich Insurance and Siemens IT Solutions and Services (UK and Germany) - and in so doing, will manage in excess of 7,000 candidates per year. The software will provide online portal access for AMS's clients, candidates, suppliers and consultants, therefore allowing a fully visible and end-to-end recruitment process within one system, and will also automate the consultants' timesheet submission and approval.

Sebastien Sepierre, Head of Resourcing Technology EMEA, explains, "At AMS, we strive to continually improve and deliver the best possible service to our clients. Our specialist technology team work closely with our clients to ensure that we deploy the most appropriate technology for each particular client's needs, rather than using one platform across our entire client base. In this way, we can ensure that clients get the most from their sourcing technology to improve efficiency and reduce costs. Bond Adapt's intrinsic flexibility meant that it was possible to adapt it to suit the particular needs and processes of individual clients, ensuring improved client satisfaction."

Tim Richards, Bond International Managing Director, added,

"We are delighted to be working with one of the largest global outsourcing firms in Alexander Mann Solutions. This contract win again demonstrates Bond Adapts unique flexibility which allows it to be adapted to the specific needs of a particular client."
