July 08, 2009


Cobalt Ground Solutions Ltd , the airport ground services company, has signed a five -year deal with NorthgateArinso for outsourced payroll and an in-house HR system for its 900 employees. Cobalt was created as the result of a recent merger of KLM Ground Services Ltd (KGS) and Air France Services Ltd (AFSL).

The newly formed organisation will use the latest version of NorthgateArinso’s Empower software for all HR processes and a fully managed outsourced payroll service.
