Amey Wins Five HR Awards in Five Months

Amey, leading infrastructure services provider, subsidiary of Ferrovial Services, has won its fifth HR award in five months for excellence in the way it has implemented its invoicing and payroll software. The company won silver in the Small to Midsize Enterprise Implementation category at the SAP Quality Awards, in recognition of how well the company has linked the software with its overall ‘OneHR’ change programme and for quickly realising the business benefits. SAP (Systems, Applications and Products in Data Processing) is a market leader in enterprise application software, which performs business functions such as order processing, procurement, production scheduling, customer information management, and accounting. Valerie Hughes-D’Aeth, Group HR Director at Amey said: “We are delighted that our commitment to building a strong HR capability to support the business has been recognised in these prestigious awards. This is testament to the way we constantly strive to make our HR offer as effective as possible from the people right through to the systems they operate.” The judges from SAP acknowledged that Amey had taken control during the software implementation, followed SAP’s 10 quality principles and were confident of their ability to address any issues. In addition to this award, Amey has won both the overall award and the ‘Building HR Capability’ category at the CIPD Awards, ‘Team of the Year’ at the prestigious Employee Benefits Awards 2011, and the award for ‘Most Successful Change Management Programme’ at the National HR Excellence Awards 2011.
