Aiimi will work directly with your team on a range of project-based exercises and workshops. These include user research, stakeholder interviews, and analyses of existing processes, key analytics, and data. Our user-centric, data-led approach will quickly form a clear picture of your existing business assets and target our efforts to keep your projects on track, on time, and on budget.
Our Discovery phase varies in length to meet the complexity of your challenges, building a detailed understanding of your hurdles, goals, and proposed outcomes measured against key metrics. Typically, we suggest top-level recommendations or prototypes for further testing, so your next project is founded on a solid footing. - Planning service works with specific services

Fighting climate change
As each new call-off is created through this framework, we’ll create bespoke fighting climate change objectives which will be outlined in a method statement. Each objective will be given a KPI to help monitor and report back to the buyer on how we’ve achieved that objective. We’ll create a timed action plan to track and manage our progress in achieving those objectives.
A dedicated Social Value Manager will be assigned to every project, they’ll invite each buyer to our purpose built Hack Zone to input, co-design and sign-off the objectives.
Aiimi is also achieving ambitious growth, but we’re dedicated to reducing business CO2 intensity (per head/unit revenue) with compelling offset strategies. One such strategy includes the planting of trees with the Woodland Trust to offset CO2. If buyers engage our services they’ll help fund further planting.
In 2022, we ran a company-wide hackathon to explore how we could use our own software, the Aiimi Insight Engine (AIE), to support our carbon management and reduce our greenhouse gas emissions. We’d be happy to collaborate with buyers on this framework and explore how it could help support specific deliverables within individual projects.
Aiimi staff working on any projects arising from this framework will be encouraged to donate a proportion of their five volunteering days to fighting climate change. We’ll also explore moving from using solar panels to power our communal areas into exploring how we can power the entire office.
Aiimi will commit to fighting climate change at a local level. We’ll hold a sustainability hackathon (one per project) in our purpose built Hack Zone. We’ll bring together local environmental groups, customers and stakeholders to tackle an existing local environmental issue, and evidence to the buyer how selecting Aiimi has led to fighting climate change at a local level.Covid-19 recovery
As each new call-off is created through this framework, we’ll create bespoke Covid-19 recovery objectives which will be outlined in a method statement. Each objective will be given a KPI to help monitor and report back to the buyer on how we’ve achieved that objective. We’ll create a timed action plan to track and manage our progress in achieving those objectives.
A dedicated Social Value Manager will be assigned to every project, they’ll invite each buyer to our purpose built Hack Zone to input, co-design and sign-off the objectives that will support local communities in Milton Keynes (MK)
When buyers engage our services they’ll also help fund an Entrepreneurship Incubator. MK is a hub for attracting tech companies/start-ups, so we’ll create an incubator were MK residents wanting to create a start-up or those wanting to explore an idea can receive support. In our Hack Zone they’ll learn from experts. The incubator will fire up the entrepreneurship ambitions of those impacted by the pandemic. Buyers that select Aiimi will also fund mentors that will help ideas to grow.
Our charity partnership with the YMCA has shown Aiimi that those who were already disadvantaged had those disadvantages magnified by the pandemic. If buyers engage our services they’ll help us fund further support. For example, we’ll offer opportunities for work experience and internships within Aiimi. This will empower participants to move from a position of disadvantage to moving a step closer to employment.
The pandemic led to job losses. The tech sector is still a growing and vibrant sector, so for each contract we secure on this framework we’ll fund an IT course/qualification. We’ll distribute this support through our local community networks who will know who was most impacted by the pandemic and how those qualifications will create post-pandemic change in people's lives.Tackling economic inequality
As each new call-off is created through this framework, we’ll create bespoke tackling economic inequality objectives which will be outlined in a method statement. Each objective will be given a KPI to help monitor and report back to the buyer on how we’ve achieved that objective. We’ll create a timed action plan to track and manage our progress in achieving those objectives.
A dedicated Social Value Manager will be assigned to every project, they’ll invite each buyer to our purpose built Hack Zone to input, co-design and sign-off the objectives that will support people in Milton Keynes (MK)
When buyers engage our services, they’ll help us expand our Early Careers Programme. Aiimi will provide work experience opportunities in IT, with a focus on schools from lower socioeconomic areas (high utilisation of free school meals etc) so we can inspire young people to choose careers in tech.
Aiimi will call upon our charity partnership with the YMCA, and local schools and colleges to identify young people with an interest in working in the IT sector. Then we’ll work with those partners to support those young people to apply for one of three routes within Aiimi: apprenticeships, traineeships or T-Level industry placements.
All Aiimi staff working on any projects arising from this framework will be encouraged to donate a proportion of their five volunteering days to tackling economic inequality. From mentoring a young person who is interested in a IT career to delivering a presentation to schoolchildren from a disadvantaged area.
Aiimi will also deliver a series of inspirational careers workshops covering topics such as coding. Our staff will deliver the workshops and share their inspiring stories. We’ll link in with local careers services and other local tech companies so that the young people that attend can also access other opportunities.Equal opportunity
As each new call-off is created through this framework, we’ll create bespoke equal opportunity objectives which will be outlined in a method statement. Each objective will be given a KPI to help monitor and report back to the buyer on how we’ve achieved that objective. We’ll create a timed action plan to track and manage our progress in achieving those objectives.
A dedicated Social Value Manager will be assigned to every project, they’ll invite each buyer to our purpose built Hack Zone to input, co-design and sign-off the objectives that will support the creation of equal opportunity.
When selecting Aiimi buyers will help Aiimi sustain inclusive recruitment practices. Such as job advertisements that avoid stereotyping or help colleagues to continue to share their positive experiences, such as Paul: “I didn’t know at the time, but now realise how authentic Aiimi is. Their awareness of autism enabled them to be more objective during the selection process.
When buyers engage our services, they’ll help us expand our Early Careers Programme. Aiimi will provide work experience opportunities in IT, with a focus on pupils who identify as having a disability. We know that a workplace can be intimidating but we’ll ensure that whether that person is neuro-diverse or has physical needs they’ll find a supportive environment at Aiimi.
We’ll also commit to providing T Level industry placements and higher level apprenticeships, as well as adjust the recruitment process to support neuro diverse or disabled candidates.
Any contracts secured on this framework will help fund a Hack. The Hack will examine an issue within Aiimi that may be impacting our ability to ‘reduce the disability employment gap’ and we’ll bring in experts and local groups to create a solution that we’ll implement within the lifetime of this framework.Wellbeing
As each new call-off is created through this framework, we’ll create bespoke wellbeing objectives which will be outlined in a method statement. Each objective will be given a KPI to help monitor and report back to the buyer on how we’ve achieved that objective. We’ll create a timed action plan to track and manage our progress in achieving those objectives.
A dedicated Social Value Manager will be assigned to every project, they’ll invite each buyer to our purpose built Hack Zone to input, co-design and sign-off the objectives that will support local communities in Milton Keynes (MK)
To ensure the health and wellbeing of all Aiimi staff working on projects that arise from this framework, we’ll appoint a Mental Health First aider. They’ll provide support and signpost someone experiencing poor mental health so they can get the help they need.
When buyers engage our services, they’ll help sustain and develop the Aiimi Wellbeing allowance. This is essentially £500 per member of staff to spend on activities and experiences that will improve their health and wellbeing.
We’ll be able to continue to support and host The Man Cave which is a mental health support group that provides a non-judgmental space for men in Milton Keynes to meet and talk about the mental health issues they are experiencing.
Our charity partnership with the YMCA (Milton Keynes) can also be sustained and expanded to support those experiencing poor health and well-being. From supporting one off events to offering work placements to improve their well-being.
