Express invests with MCI Consultants

Johannesburg, 13 Aug 2007

MCI, the exclusive distributor for Bond International Software in South Africa and the largest distributor of staffing software in South Africa, today announced that Express Personnel Services SA has signed an agreement with the former for the supply of Bond International's Adapt Software to all current and future franchised offices of Express in South Africa.

"The Adapt Software will be integrated with the VIP Payroll and Pastel accounting systems to establish fully integrated front and back-office operating systems," commented Bernadette van den Heever of Express Personnel. "Clients, candidates and temporary associates will benefit from this specialised recruitment industry software, through quicker more efficient and uniform service levels."

The implementation of Adapt as an operational system in the franchises started in April 2006. By September, the implementation of back-office integration commenced, and since February all franchises' temp payrolls have been running through Adapt.

The AdaptRecruit System is the market choice of many of the largest and most well-respected personnel organisations in the world. MCI, local distributor of AdaptRecruitment, has been implementing the software in South Africa since 1999 and its clients include some of the foremost recruitment agencies in the country.

Express Personnel is a franchise organisation started almost 25 years ago in the US, and represented in the US, Canada, South Africa and Australia. Express provides a wide variety of services to enable its franchisees to succeed. Express Personnel Services SA chose AdaptRecruitment as its operational system for branches because of its recognised reputation as a recruitment software solution and ability to provide integration to back-office systems. Express Personnel currently has 14 franchises nationwide.
