From inception to completion and into BAU. Because we are whole-of-market, we can work with your chosen technology. Our payroll team were awarded the payroll service provider of the year in 2021-2022 at the CIPP Annual Excellence Awards for our exceptional payroll services.
Enabling us to partner with Project Managers, technical experts, project teams and product suppliers translating requirements and opening dialogue at all levels.
I have found Phase 3 to be responsive and solution focused especially when working in a pressurised environment. The input and the resource they provided enabled our HR and Payroll system procurement project to move at pace. Having Phase 3 on board enabled us to use our limited resources on other areas of the project.
I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Phase 3 over the last 8 years or so and remember my early phone calls and discussions with Assad, it seems like only yesterday, where has that time gone!
Phase 3 is the best organisation I have ever worked with, professional, capable, trustworthy & honest. You put the customer at the heart of everything you do and are always available to help and support. I have worked with several of your Consultants over the years and you are all of a similar characteristic.
All in all, the service we receive is nothing short of first-class! Phase 3 is by far one of the best consultancy companies I have ever worked with which is a great testament to your amazing people!
The key thing to take away from working with Phase 3 is their customer service and ease of engagement, it always feels personal. I would highly recommend Phase 3 and their approach to supporting their clients.

A part of the scoping exercise is to identify the greatest value added within the Project Management role and therefore offer you an appropriate degree of intensity and method. In many cases, the ‘light touch’ is a great solution; or there may be clear requirement for the strength and commitment of an independent full-time project lead, or it may be useful for Quality Assurance.

The Phase 3 project managers have access to our full range of support, from HR expertise, payroll, finance, data migration, reporting, configuration and technical experts – ensuring they add maximum value to your technology project by accessing our network of expertise.
Here are ten tips for project manager working either in or alongside the HR or payroll team(s). It may be that the role of PM is your day job or that you are adding the duties to your day job, regardless these easy tips should make managing the project much smoother.
Digital transformation project management involves overseeing the integration of digital technologies across all areas of a business. This process reshapes how your business operates and delivers value to its customers. Beyond the technical aspects, it also involves managing a cultural shift within an organisation, fostering continuous innovation, experimentation, and the rethinking of traditional business processes to improve efficiency and stay aligned with modern trends.
Phase 3 are specialist consultants who work closely with you to manage every stage of your digital transformation project, from creating the initial business case to full project implementation. We can help you select, implement, and manage your organisation’s HR, payroll, and finance technology, ensuring these systems are optimised for maximum value. Our comprehensive HRIS project management approach supports your business in navigating the complexities of digital transformation smoothly and effectively.
No, we are proud to be independent consultants. This allows us to provide unbiased, tailored solutions for your business, ensuring that we recommend and implement the best systems to meet your specific needs. All project management is handled in-house by our experienced team, and our PMs work directly with technical experts, project teams, and product suppliers to ensure clear communication, translate requirements effectively, and deliver a seamless project experience. Our independence ensures that our focus remains on maximising the success of your digital transformation, rather than promoting any single product or platform.
Key stages typically include developing a business case, defining project goals, selecting suitable technologies, implementing systems, managing change, training staff, and providing post-implementation support.
Phase 3 can provide support for as much or as little of the project as needed, ensuring a seamless transition while maintaining normal business operations throughout the process.
The duration can vary based on the scope and complexity of the project. Small projects might take a few months, while larger-scale transformations involving multiple systems or departments can take longer. Speak to our expert team to get a better idea of timescales in relation to your requirements.
Common challenges in any digital transformation project include resistance to change, technical integration issues, insufficient training, budget overruns, and unclear goals. A solid project management approach is crucial in addressing these challenges, and Phase 3 ensures that risks are carefully assessed and minimised throughout the project. Our team implements proactive risk management strategies, clear communication, and ongoing support to anticipate potential issues and keep the project on track, ensuring a smooth and successful transformation.
