Case Study: AMS partners with Giant for compliant Screening & Payroll

The challenge

AMS required a rapid and flexible workforce solution to deliver a major project. The requirement was clear: stand up a bespoke service quickly to screen, contract with and payroll 350 remote entry level positions.

Due to the short-term nature of the assignments, AMS also needed a bespoke package that would support ‘term to perm’ transitions where required. In addition, all workers needed to be Baseline Personnel Security Standard (BPSS) screened at pace. While AMS already had an in-house screening solution, the speed and volume of this project meant a managed service was essential.

The solution

Giant worked in partnership with AMS to expand upon the existing framework to design and implement a tailored workforce solution. Our service included:

• Full BPSS screening through Giant Screening, delivered as a managed service to meet deadlines and ensure compliance
• Engagement and weekly payroll for up to 350 PAYE contingent workers with bespoke expense processes for mobile workers
• Seamless reporting and dashboards via our Precision portals, giving AMS real-time visibility of screening and contract progress

The results

By partnering with Giant, AMS were able to deliver the project successfully. We asked AMS what they valued most about working with Giant:

• Reporting

“Both screening and the Precision portals give us instant access to dashboards and reporting, which has been invaluable.”

• Communication

“The team are what stands out about Giant; they are really knowledgeable, and it feels like a true partnership.”

The impact

Working with Giant has helped AMS achieve success by:

• Delivering speed of implementation within two weeks of contract signature
• Identifying and implementing process improvements to reduce screening timeframes
• Providing a single partner to manage payroll and screening, ensuring consistency for workers and the client

As AMS summed it up: “Partnering with Giant really feels like working together as one team. We’ve been able to meet key deadlines, improve processes, and deliver a compliant, efficient service.”
