Hercules (AIM:HERC), a UK power and infrastructure services group listed on AIM, said it has successfully implemented its new Pay and Bill platform across the business.
The company built the platform to support growth achieved in recent years, aiming to strengthen operational resilience and underpin further investment in customer service.
Hercules maintained uninterrupted payroll and customer invoicing throughout the transition to the new system.
The platform is expected to deliver greater automation of core processes, stronger financial controls, improved management information and a more scalable operating model over time.
"Delivering a transformation of this scale while maintaining uninterrupted payroll and customer invoicing is a significant achievement and reflects the dedication and collaboration of our teams across the business," said Brusk Korkmaz, chief executive officer of Hercules.
The company is now progressing the implementation of its Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) platform, which represents the final phase of its transformation programme.
News Intelligence what this means for the company
Hercules has completed rollout of its new Pay and Bill platform across the business without disrupting payroll or customer invoicing, positioning itself for the final phase of its transformation programme—an ERP system implementation. The platform is designed to automate core processes and improve financial controls as the company scales, but the announcement contains no financial impact, timeline, or cost disclosure for either the completed platform or the pending ERP work.
Operational infrastructure upgrades of this kind typically reduce friction and improve margins over time, but execution risk remains on the ERP phase. Against a backdrop of cash at £2.7m as of late June 2026 and a £25.0m financing package announced in the same period, the company is investing in systems while managing tight liquidity—a trade-off that will only pay off if the platform delivers the promised automation and scalability.
