AWARD OF CONTRACT





Manpower Software plc is delighted to announce another NHS contract award in the
UK Healthcare sector. Wrightington, Wigan and Leigh, a major acute trust
comprising 4 hospitals and serving a population of over 300,000, has chosen MAPS

Wrightington, Wigan and Leigh NHS Trust awarded the contract through the
Catalist procurement process following an extremely successful Roster Assessment
project across several wards.  The Roster Assessment demonstrated significant
operational and financial benefits to the Trust.  Key to choosing MAPS
Healthroster was its proven ability to integrate with the Electronic Staff
Record system (ESR).



The award of this contract brings the total number of NHS Trusts which have
selected MAPS Healthroster to 35, in addition to the contract with the
independent healthcare provider HCA International.
