Inland Revenue - Newcastle In 1996, we started to develop the immensely complex National Insurance Recording System 2 (NIRS2) for the Inland Revenue. Its core processes support the entire range of departmental functions including revenue recording, benefit entitlement calculations, NI fund accounting and contracted-out regulation. We occasionally look for IT professionals for this unit. Rural Payments Agency - Newcastle The UK Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) established the Rural Payments Agency (RPA) to manage the payments of Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) grants to farmers and traders. We were awarded the seven-year outsourcing contract to develop cutting-edge new systems to deliver these subsidy payments. We’re helping to transform RPA from a paper-based agency into an electronic, customer-driven service. We occasionally look for IT professionals for this unit. UK Department of Work and Pensions - Newcastle The UK Department of Work and Pensions and Accenture have a long-term relationship. From 2003 – present Accenture have been supporting the DWP on a series of engagements. These include e-enablement of citizen services, replacement of the master customer information system (CIS) and Pensions contact centre consolidation and transformation (PTP). We occasionally require specialists with experience in service orientated architectures, integrations architectures and web services technologies. Barclays – Manchester Barclays is one of the largest financial services companies in the world. It is a UK-based financial services group, with a very large international presence in Europe, the USA, Africa and Asia. It is engaged primarily in banking, investment banking and investment management services. We have been involved with them since 2004. The outsourcing arrangement with Accenture is part of a larger effort by Barclays to outsource much of its existing IT application development.
