Business and technology service company Logica has signed a six-year deal with defence and security company BAE Systems to provide multi-process HR outsourcing services for its employees in the UK.

Under the agreement, Logica will design, build and run a transformed HR service for BAE Systems that directly supports the future requirements of its business, and this service will be based on Logica’s Dynamic HRO offering and harnesses Oracle’s PeopleSoft Human Capital Management and Oracle E-Business Suite Payroll to maximise performance improvements.

Logica will work with BAE Systems to support business priorities which include organisational effectiveness, human capital insights, employee engagement and performance, service efficiency and workforce optimisation.

Adopting Logica’s approaches to supplier ecosystem collaboration, advanced analytics and business benefit realisation, BAE Systems will accelerate the development of its enhanced strategic HR capability.

BAE Systems Transformation HR director Haydn Clulow said BAE recognise that its business needs both agility and flexibility if it is to respond successfully to changing market landscape.

"We are pleased to have Logica on board and see them as a key partner in our drive to build the people management capability that will enable our future success," said Clulow.

Logica UK president Gary Bullard said changing workforce demographics, increased economic pressures and evolving business priorities are just some of the factors that HR teams must analyse and respond to.

"Our partnership with BAE Systems will deliver an HR service that is dynamic and able to support them in making good business decisions," said Bullard.
