Fighting climate change
Fighting Climate Change - We provide effective stewardship of the environment by only travelling to physical meetings where absolutely necessary. Our preference is for remote, whether that be analysis and delivery of solutions through to training and customer feedback sessions. Not only do we reduce our carbon footprint, we also encourge the customers to do the same via this method.Covid-19 recovery
This solution helps to improve workplace conditions that support COVID-19 recovery effort through enhanced social distancing brought through the provision of a predominently remote service that requires only limited on-site access.Tackling economic inequality
This service aids with the increase in supply chain resilience an capacity as our solution is on the Oracle OCI platform which is regularly enhanced with innovative technology which we use in a disruptive manner. In addition the scalability and scheduling capability of our solutions mean that we can deliver enhanced value to the customer by pausing services when they are not required - for example evenings, holidays and weekends - so that they do not consume resources and incur costs when not required. The ability scale also saves money and resources as additional storage and processing capacity is only added as and when it is needed. We also enhance our applications using Agile methodologies to add incremental customer value based on customer need, so the new features are added quickly into the cloud platform without any disruption of service meeting immediate customer needs.Wellbeing
We strive to improve the health and wellbeing of the contract workforce by ensuring they only need to travel to remote locations when absolutely no other form of delivery is possible. Whilst we have a central office, we encourage consultants to work in a hybrid manner in an environment that best suits their particular circumstances.
