They said the final location was set to migrate early next year.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The systems that we needed to change we identified as part of a discovery phase that occurred as the first activity at the very start of the separation process. We&#8217;ve spoken publicly about 2,500 systems,&#8221; they said.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this month, the company announced 475 staff were being made redundant at its head offices in Leeds and Leicester. Meanwhile, fixed-term contractors working on the IT transformation project are also set to leave &#8220;over the course of the next few months as this project finishes,&#8221; the Asda spokesperson told us.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Register<\/em> understands that restrictions have been placed on IT contractors&#8217; security and parking arrangements. They must be met by an Asda manager as they arrive, must be accompanied by an Asda colleague at all times, and ANPR access for parking has been revoked. Arrangements for contractors and third parties will require SVP, CFO, or CPO approval.<\/p>\n<p>Asda is also placing restrictions on working from home.
