BambooHR Migration in Durham
Moving Durham employers' HR records into BambooHR, usually from spreadsheets and a shared drive of scanned documents. This is the point to decide what should not come — old HR systems and folders accumulate records with no retention period, and importing everything carries that problem into a system where it is more visible.
Why this comes up
The problem
Employee records are spread across spreadsheets, email and paper files, and consolidating them means confronting how long things have been kept.
What you get
What we deliver
- Retention reviewed before import, since some records should be deleted not moved
- Current employees, leavers and their document sets separated deliberately
- Leave balances reconciled and agreed with staff before going live
- Historical absence imported where it affects entitlement or ongoing management
- Documents attached to the right person, which manual scanning frequently gets wrong
- Access configured before data lands rather than afterwards

Working in Durham
North East
Durham's economy is dominated by its university and cathedral, so the commercial base is small and much of the local demand comes from spinouts and suppliers attached to the institutions rather than from independent industry.
Research spinout software and visitor systems, usually on institutional procurement timelines rather than commercial ones.

BambooHR Migration in Durham — common questions
- Should we import everything?
- No, and a migration is the natural moment to apply retention. Records for people who left a decade ago, disciplinary matters long resolved and documents kept for no stated reason should be assessed rather than moved. Importing them makes the problem more accessible, not less.
- What about leave balances?
- Reconcile and agree them before launch. Staff will check their balance on the first day, and a figure that disagrees with what they believed undermines confidence in the whole system. Establishing the number with each person beforehand avoids opening with a dispute.
- How should documents be handled?
- Carefully, because misfiling is a data protection incident. Bulk-attaching scanned files to employee records goes wrong when names are similar or filing was inconsistent, and one person's disciplinary letter appearing in another's record is difficult to explain.
- When should access be set up?
- Before the data arrives. Configuring permissions after import means there is a window where records are visible more widely than intended, and with HR data that window is exactly what you cannot afford. It is a five-minute sequencing decision.
- Do you work with businesses across County Durham?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout North East, including Durham and the surrounding County Durham area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Durham businesses do you usually work with?
- Research spinout software and visitor systems, usually on institutional procurement timelines rather than commercial ones. Beyond that we work across Higher Education, Tourism & Heritage, Public Sector, Retail and Research.
- Do you cover the areas around Durham?
- Yes — we work throughout North East, including Newcastle, Sunderland, York. Durham is an urban area of roughly 70,000+, and we take on work across the wider County Durham region rather than the city boundary alone.
