InvenioLSI uses ITIL support methodology, a systematic, professional approach to the management of IT services. ITIL defines 4 categories of processes that form the basis of service management: incident management, problem management, change management and release management. Support levels can be categorised as L1, L2 and L3 Support. At a high level, L1, L2 and L3 can be mapped as:
L1: Application operations and monitoring, categorisation and logging of tickets, fixing known/commonly occurring issues, escalating issues to next level within SLA timelines in absence of a known resolution.
L2: Application production support, problem management, configuration management, escalated incident management for tickets escalated from L1 team.
L3: change and release management, SLA management, escalated incident management for tickets escalated from L2 team, minor enhancements, bug fixes.
There could also be a L4 support required which is related to the product/license providers. This is covered in the support costs with the licenses.
The costs for services depend upon the chosen support model. The typical support models could be ticket-based support, or capacity-based support model and/or any alternate model based on customer requirements. Yes, a technical account manager will be assigned to each of the customer organisations.

Fighting climate change
invenioLSI does follow various environmentally sustainable policies. To implement and track the same, we have an initiative called Environmental Management System (EMS), which is to provide invenioLSI with a framework to continue to maintain and operate in compliance with applicable federal, state, and local environmental laws, regulations, and permits as well as corporate policies.
invenioLSI aims to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2030, working collaboratively to promote a responsible attitude to green IT throughout the life of this framework, ensuring waste, energy consumption and carbon emissions are minimized/reduced.
Reducing the negative environmental impact of potential services:
Many of our local operations support initiatives for reducing power and water usage and monitoring waste reduction in our offices, these range from paper and plastic recycling to water filtration and office lighting efficiency systems.
Promoting the implementation of cloud-based products and solutions to reduce the BBC’s environmental impact and make them more sustainable, e.g., eliminating hardware, paper, and associated materials.
Actively promoting the use of cloud-based collaborative tooling and technologies, such as video conferencing software, to save time, reduce travel needs and minimise carbon emissions, and also facilitate quicker, more productive, and collaborative meetings with key stakeholders.
Through our strategic alignment and partnership with SAP, we support their own FY2025 environmental and energy objectives to reduce carbon emissions and energy consumption and phase out single-use plastics.
Carbon footprint consumption reports:
Scope 1 (fuel and processes) and Scope 2 (purchase electricity) emissions for the assets we operate
Monthly and cumulative total for each fuel or energy type
A converted cumulative carbon equivalence (CO2e Kg) and cumulative energy use (kWh) total for each fuel or energy type
A total company carbon equivalence and energy use for the year to dateCovid-19 recovery
Some of our employees were infected, hospitalised and even succumbed to COVID-19. Examples of measures taken by the company are shown below:
We have a COVID-19 Action Committee formed to be in touch with employees and their families
We protected the physical and mental well-being of people by engaging with local community support
We donated funds to local UK NHS charities and governments to support the COVID-19 recovery efforts
We arranged vaccine campaigns for employees
We announced paid holidays for employees attending vaccination appointments
We offered special additional leave for employees going through COVID-19 related challenges
We provided hospitalisation assistance and medical care required for invenioLSI employees which fell beyond insurance coverage
And, in our opinion, most importantly we provided employment to spouses in the event of the unfortunate demise of our employees, of which there have been 3 cases.Tackling economic inequality
As part of tackling economic inequalities, Invenio is involving SMEs organisations as subcontractors to deliver part of the business outcomes. This will enable economic opportunity for SMBs.
Apprenticeship and trainee programmes. We are working with UK universities to increase placements and career opportunities. We are involved in research programs through programs such as KTP, Smart Grants.
Sourcing locally – invenioLSI is helping local employment generation by hiring staff and suppliers who are locally based to our customers. This promotes revenue generation to local community, but in support carbon reduction and sustainability.Equal opportunity
invenioLSI is an Equal Opportunity Employer that does not discriminate on the basis of actual or perceived race, colour, creed, religion, national origin, ancestry, citizenship status, age, sex or gender (including pregnancy, childbirth, and pregnancy-related conditions), gender identity or expression (including transgender status), sexual orientation, marital status, military service and veteran status, physical or mental disability, genetic information, or any other characteristic protected by federal, state, or local laws and ordinances.
invenioLSI’s management team is dedicated to this policy with respect to recruitment, hiring, placement, promotion, transfer, training, compensation, benefits, employee activities, access to facilities and programs, and general treatment during employment.Wellbeing
invenioLSI practice and ensure wellbeing at 2 different levels:
1. Employee Wellbeing – We have inculcated flexibility in our HR practices and employee welfare initiatives, which allows them to take time off and balance their personal and professional growth. An example could be flexible work hours, location and even job description, if the skill set of an employee justifies.
There are special initiatives such as consultations, physical health check-ups for staff, and health insurance coverage for employee well-being. We also understand the pitfalls of “All work; No play” can bring the morale and motivation down. Hence, we ensure to reward employees to engagement activities such as, yoga sessions on every Friday afternoon, offsite retreats, fun activities and so on.
2. Societal well-being – InvenioLSI is involved in implementing technical solutions which promotes social well-being, such as working with governments (both state and local) universities and NHS trusts. We have solutions which can help collect and distribute tax revenues for promoting social good.
Similarly, we have solutions for identifying and addressing socially vulnerable group of people, such as child abuse, troubled families and so on. Our offerings are directly promoting social wellbeing for the citizens.
