Frontier Software was founded in Melbourne, Australia in 1983.
The objective of the founders was, and continues to be, to create a world-class integrated Human Resource and Payroll solution. That system, Comprehensive Human Resource Information Solution (CHRIS), supports best practice Human Resource and Payroll processing for more than 1700 clients globally.
The system evolved into chris21, a comprehensive solution that exceeds user expectations in Payroll, Human Resources and Talent Management. chris21 is extremely flexible and scalable, with client workforce numbers ranging between 100 and 65,000 employees.
Since inception Frontier Software has worked closely with their clients to develop a superior HR & Payroll solution for government and the private sector. chris21 is utilised by organisations across all industry sectors to automate the processes that surround their workforce, ensuring resources are utilised where they are needed most.
More recently Frontier Software is excited to present their new solution – ichris – to the market. ichris is enhancing the functionality of chris21 with a new intuitive user interface, new features and is accessible anytime, anywhere, from any device. ichris is built for mobile and will revolutionise the way we do HR and Payroll.
Their investment into Human Capital solutions has positioned Frontier Software as one of the industry leaders, and they are dedicated to continually invest a minimum of 20 percent of revenue (currently 35 percent) into Research & Development. Also, the annual Navigo report indicates chris21 as the most adopted HRIS system for the second year in a row.
Frontier Payroll Services are the outsourcing arm of this industry leader and are integral to the comprehensive Frontier Software service offerings. Clients can select from a bureau, outsourced or fully managed services along with their desired software modules.
As a specialist HR solution provider, Frontier Software concentrates solely on Human Resources, Talent Management and Payroll. Its 300+ employees are focused on the development and delivery of their market leading solutions. This approach allows for a practised focus, which is evident in their software solution and exceptional service.
The solution is implemented by Frontier Software staff members who are fully trained chris21 specialists, with domain expertise in their assigned aspect of the implementation, which includes software installation, project management, product training and consulting.
Frontier Software personnel undertake a rigorous accreditation program annually that ensures they possess superior product knowledge; this approach ensures implementation projects are delivered on time and within budget.
While the company has grown significantly since inception, its corporate headquarters remain in Melbourne with offices in Brisbane, Sydney, Canberra, Adelaide and Perth as well as New Zealand, India, Singapore, Philippines, Malaysia and the United Kingdom.
