So just how easy is it to move your payroll away from your current provider

• The transfer process - we appoint a dedicated project team to help you through the process.  Their job is to take you through each stage, manage all of your payroll needs and settle you in.
• Liaise with LEA – we will contact your existing provider to get the information we need. We also establish the links needed with Teachers Pension and Local Government pension teams at the LEA ensuring that your pensions contributions are correctly calculated
• Payroll accuracy – we often find that there are existing errors in payrolls when we take them over. At the initial stages of set-up our payroll team will be working with you to ensure the highest level of accuracy from the outset
• Speed of transfer – with over 40 years of experience in managing payrolls, we have the experience to ensure the transfer and setting up of your first payroll is quick and efficient. A typical transfer takes 6 weeks from the start to first pay run. However, payroll needs to be right and not rushed. We take as long as it takes to get it right from the start.
• Handling queries – once you have made the decision to outsource your payroll, the last thing you want is to have to handle any queries from staff. Dataplan Education can help you with this and often provide a drop in service for staff to resolve initial issues and a staff education process to minimise future queries.
• Smoothing the transfer – in order to help you and your staff with the transition we can offer your staff a drop in day to go through any payroll issue they may have.
• Transparent Pricing - we don’t strip everything out to headline a low payslip price only to add it on as an extra later. The price we quote is the price you will pay. Guaranteed.
