Planning

Planning service
Yes
How the planning service works
Agile Solutions believes the key to a successful project is a phased approach that aligns technology with business objectives, change management and knowledge transfer.
Our Implementation approach focuses on the identification and prioritisation of the individual use cases, ensuring the solution supports the current customer landscape.
We undertake a thorough business analysis exercise to produce a conceptual solution architecture that takes into account business objectives, security requirements and algins with project budget and timescales.

Conceptually this is split into the following delivery phases:
1. Discovery
2. High level Solution Design
3. Platform configuration
4. Minimum Viable Product, build and test.
5. Extended Development – iteratively develop additional functionality, integrate additional data sources including a historical load (optional)
6. Design Managed Service/Support and Maintenance model.

Fighting climate change

Agile Solutions have committed to achieving net zero by 2050 at the latest. As a Data Management specialist, we understand more than most the negative environmental impact on-premise solutions can have on the planet due to the huge amount of energy required to run them. That is why we place great emphasis on supporting our customers to move to cloud for all their IT solutions. Agile Solutions have supported this goal by undertaking extensive marketing and educational campaigns across our sector which include free webinars, round tables, events and documentation such as white papers and how to guides. We deliberately remove barriers to participation by ensuring that all are welcome to access the content and enabling remote attendance via Teams or recorded sessions.    Agile Solutions additionally run regular communications campaigns to our internal Stakeholders and employees to educate and drive awareness around environmental protection. These campaigns have different themes, but examples include Office Energy Reduction, the Electric Vehicle Scheme, Company Travel Policy and global events such as World Environment Day.   To support our environmental protection goals with our clients, Agile Solutions is embarking upon a programme of work to amend our contracts and policies where we will incorporate our environmental standards into employee on-boarding documentation, Statements of Work and our 3rd Party and Sub-contractor on-boarding processes.   Agile Solutions encourages all employees to undertake our monthly ‘Time To Pause’ initiative where we facilitate open discussions with colleagues to support communication, collaboration and an improvement to employee mental health and wellbeing. We challenge everyone to think about what more we could be doing here at Agile Solutions and how we could make a difference to this global issue.  Agile Solutions holds a number of fundraising events throughout the year to support our chosen charities which include The Woodland Trust and the RSPB.

Covid-19 recovery

Following the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen our buyers utilise new technologies and delivery models to ensure service continuity. By better utilising digital services, we reduce the need for face to face requirements, allowing services to continue to support their users when travel becomes restricted.   We expect that digital services uptake will continue to be greatly increased, with far more users switching to a remote delivery and engagement model.     Agile Solutions focus on digital services and flexible delivery models to ensure service continuity for buyers. We have two remote delivery offices in the UK and can pivot entirely to home working if needed.   Agile Solutions also provides training and awareness for staff on supporting mental health in the workplace, particularly for those affected following the Covid-19 pandemic. We also provide a range of social initiatives throughout the year for all staff with the aim of improving mental health.

Tackling economic inequality

Agile Solutions is geared to support progress in reducing economic inequality within our industry. We support growth, learning and development around data literacy within our wider SME community by hosting roundtable events and lunch and learns. Delivery of our services via this framework also creates opportunities for new jobs, skills and apprenticeships.   Agile Solutions currently provide an on-shore model for our clients, with offices based in Milton Keynes, Glasgow and Manchester. This enables us to directly support skills development opportunities in the context of contracts attained through this framework.   Our programs are continually developing and currently we offer: Work experience and University placement opportunities for students Continuous training for all employees. This ranges from an intensive graduate training programme for new graduates, to further training and certification for our more experienced employees   We work directly with local education establishments and by using sophisticated recruitment software we prioritise local people to fulfil the contract. The most recent apprentice intake was carried out in Glasgow where we worked directly with local colleges and Universities in the area to source candidates.   Our upskilling program is available to candidates to help remove barriers to employment due to a lack of relevant experience in a traditional IT role. The ongoing training and enablement our employees receive is paramount to the success of our teams. We look to upskill these individuals where possible, narrowing digital skills gaps and ensuring they are given all the support needed to succeed. As part of this Framework, we would look to pair up our new apprentices and graduates with experienced members of the support team in a mentorship capacity. All training and examination fees are covered by Agile Solutions, and we provide time off for study as well as additional bonus payments for those who wish to take additional training.

Equal opportunity

Agile Solutions is committed to ensuring equal treatment for all employees and applicants. The   Company’s aim is to recruit, train, promote and reward on the basis of merit and irrespective of gender, disability, sexual orientation, marriage or civil partnership, gender reassignment, part-time status, age, religion or belief, race, ethnic origin, nationality or national origin or Trade Union membership, political views or affiliations.  Agile Solutions is therefore committed to providing equality of opportunity for all employees by:   Preventing any form of direct or indirect discrimination or victimisation or bullying.   Promoting a good and harmonious working environment where all individuals are treated with respect and dignity and in which no form of intimidation or harassment from colleagues, customers or Clients will be tolerated.   Fulfilling all legal obligations under relevant national and European Union legislation and associated Codes of Practice where they apply.      By engaging our recruitment, procurement and professional development teams we have seen our diverse workforce develop in a sustainable manner, providing a drive to further our creativity and innovation within the solutions we provide our clients.   For recruitment, candidates are selected from diverse backgrounds which include graduates and non-graduates from both STEM and non-STEM experience and/or qualifications. This is driven by research which suggests that only 26% of STEM graduates are women. Historical barriers to employment have been removed through our provision of upskilling and apprenticeship and graduate programs. Inclusive employability initiatives allow us to engage more candidates who are returning to work from career breaks, e.g. mothers taking time off to care for children or embarking on a complete career change. We provide continuous training to all employees and clients where needed. Training includes certification in relevant technologies and tooling as well and collaboration and delivery methodology training.

Wellbeing

Agile Solutions approaches wellbeing from four different angles: Physical, Mental, Financial and Social. Each of these areas is targeted individually within our organisation, via dedicated benefits, working groups and events. For opportunities stemming from this framework, Agile Solutions provides a range of health and wellbeing benefits to our employees including private health cover, cash back on everyday health expenses and enhanced maternity and paternity pay. We also provide discounted gym memberships to promote a healthy and active lifestyle for our staff, as well as having a dedicated “Social Solutions” team that run regular social and wellbeing events throughout the year. We provide training and awareness on financial wellbeing, covering budgeting, planning, pensions and more to promote financial literacy and confidence with our staff. We also support mental health for our staff, and run monthly “time to pause” initiatives to encourage non-work conversation between staff members with the goal of preventing feelings of isolation and loneliness for remote workers.
