Alliance Boots has signed a six-year pension administration contract worth over 1.3 million with human resource (HR), payroll and pensions provider, Northgate HR.
The contract covers the pensions administration services for over 90,000 records of the Boots Pension Scheme and will also cover back scanning of historical records including over 1.4 million paper and microfilm images.
Clive Weston, head of pensions at Boots said that, after investigating the options to upgrade and improve our core pension administration system, the Northgate HR hosted PS Pensions system offered ready integration to the HR and payroll services the vendor already provides for the pharmacy and drug company.
"We concluded that [this deal was] the most efficient and effective way to do this," he said. "It will help us maintain our position as a modern, competitive and efficient retailer."
