How the planning service works
At CGI, we take a business-led value and outcomes driven view on implementing the cloud hosting services.
We provide a comprehensive cloud migration service that takes into account the evolving business environment in order to define the right cloud hosting solution for our clients.
Our proven cloud transitioning framework provides a full assessment of the application or application suite along with appropriate cloud hosting and management options.
We take into account our client’s business objectives to determine the most appropriate cloud management and hosting strategy for the in-scope IT estate. We evaluate the current state by using our proven cloud capability maturity assessment framework, define the planned future state based on the business requirements, and develop a transition roadmap to realise the defined target state, achieving the desired business outcomes.
CGI not only has an established consulting practice that defines the ideal application architecture for cloud service (SaaS, PaaS, IaaS etc.), but also has an experienced cloud migration team to execute the appropriate cloud hosting options (public, private, hybrid, or community clouds) that fully conforms with the client’s requirements.

Social Value

Fighting climate change

Fighting climate change

CGI is passionate about protecting the environment. Our UK corporate policy, backed by Science Based Targets (SBTs), is to be Net Zero by 2026 and to be operationally Carbon Neutral by the end of 2022.

We commit to:
- Achieving Net Zero, based on SBT measures, no later than 2026.
- Extending the climate change commitment into our supply chain such that 50% of our suppliers, by spend, will have set their own SBTs to reduce their climate impact by 2026.
- Applying our environmental programme ‘No Planet B’ to each opportunity. As part of ‘No Planet B’ we engage with our members, clients, suppliers and communities, to identify and deliver additional benefits including tree planting and canal restoration projects.

We have appointed a UK programme manager to deliver against our Net Zero targets. Alongside our absolute emission targets for operations (Scope 1 and 2) and business travel (Scope 3), we have set a supplier engagement SBT. We will engage with and support all UK suppliers ensuring they are on a Net Zero journey. We will include clients and suppliers in our No Planet B programme to collaborate and develop new initiatives aligned with their priorities.

A contract specific Sustainability Plan and reporting metrics will be developed for each engagement, aligned to the targets in our overall Carbon Reduction plan. Using established data gathering and reporting processes, we will report annually against our commitments and metrics.

Improvement plans will be driven in part by the reporting metrics and feedback from clients and suppliers. We find that our ‘No Planet B’ initiative is the biggest source of innovation.

We are proud of our Net Zero ambitions. With SBTs, contract specific sustainability plans, our reporting commitments and involvement in our ‘No Planet B’ programme, our approach and progress will be fully visible.
Tackling economic inequality

Tackling economic inequality

CGI is committed to ensuring careers in STEM are accessible for all. We will continue to provide a range of new employment and training opportunities which include professional, graduate and apprenticeships. To create new skills in the IT industry, we offer a range of IT-based apprenticeships and partner with various university training partners to deliver our Technology Industry Gold accredited Degree Apprenticeships.

We proudly support social enterprises FastFutures and Bounceback, providing mentoring, CV writing and interview skills to young people and prison leavers, enabling them to become work-ready. CGI’s EmployABILITY programme helps underrepresented students to build skills needed to pursue a successful career in STEM, through mentoring provided by our members.

CGI is supporting the Government’s priority to grow and diversify supply chains by working with a variety of partners. The majority of the 1,600 suppliers we use to support the delivery of services to our clients are UK based organisations, with over 600 Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). We are a Member of the Business Disability Forum and are signatories of the Prompt Payment Code.

We select our suppliers based on not just technical merit and capability but also alignment with our vision and goals. Our procurement process develops a deep understanding of each new supplier through a materiality rating checklist. All our preferred suppliers are audited against these checks annually, and actions are taken if a supplier’s rating drops.

Throughout our engagements, any change control will include a check on potential inclusion of SME, Social Enterprises or new businesses. This will include advertising opportunities on Contract Finder. We also welcome input from our clients, as they are often approached directly and have valuable insight in supplier offerings.

For transparency we will report on the number, value and proportion of contract spend being undertaken by SMEs and Social Enterprises.
Equal opportunity

Equal opportunity

At CGI we encourage diversity in our workplace and inclusivity at work is one of our priorities.

We commit to:
- Continuing to measure and reduce our Gender and Ethnicity Pay Gap
- Publishing our disability metrics
- Inclusive and accessible recruitment practices
- Investing in training and progression

CGI are proud of the progression with our Gender pay gap figures. While our ethnicity pay gap is relatively small, we know that a higher representation of minority ethnic employees at senior levels will reduce it further. This is now one of our main objectives. We recently updated our systems, enabling our members to declare whether they consider themselves to have a disability. We will publish this data through the Voluntary Reporting Framework.

We will invite all employment applicants to complete a Clear Talents profile, an easy-to-use tool that helps us to treat candidates fairly; accommodating any requirements they may have. We revisit Clear Talents once candidates join to identify potential further adjustments to their working environment, providing Disability Passports if a long-term adjustment is required. We will promote our vacancies with specialist business communities including networking hub for LGBT+ professionals, myGWork, and disability job board, Evenbreak.

CGI invests in a minimum of two weeks training and personal development each year for every member. Using Academia, our platform of comprehensive learning content and tools, members can follow various learning pathways leading to certified qualifications.

We will report our mean and median percentage pay gaps annually and provide confirmation of publishing of disability metrics via the Voluntary Reporting Framework annually.

We do not tolerate modern slavery in any part of our business or supply chains. This is reflected in our published Modern Slavery Statements.

Our reporting commitments, both contractual, statutory and voluntary will deliver significant transparency against our Equal Opportunity responsibilities.
Wellbeing

Wellbeing

At CGI, we are proud to care about our members. However, wellbeing isn’t an issue exclusively concerning our business; we are equally committed to supporting the wellbeing of the communities in which we operate too. We achieve this by:
- Training our members in Mental Health First Aid
- Extending health and wellbeing initiatives with our clients and suppliers
- Collaboratively identifying initiatives to support local communities

CGI are a signatory of the 'UK-wide Mental Health at Work Commitment' curated by the mental health charity 'Mind'. We will continue to invest in training to expand upon our 300 plus UK members who are already certified Mental Health First Aiders (MHFAs). These certified members have developed a strong support network for their colleagues. To supplement this and drive the integration of best practice for physical and mental health, we will provide all our members with access to ‘Oxygen’, our online wellbeing centre of expertise.

We will invite our clients; suppliers and communities to participate in our health and wellbeing initiatives, such as our ‘MoveSpring’ step challenge (measuring steps taken) and delivering tree planting and canal restoration days to local communities.

CGI provide all our members with at least one day’s volunteering to support local initiatives or charities, making a significant difference to the communities in which we live and work.

We will work collaboratively with our clients and suppliers to identify opportunities to support local communities. An example of our commitment to wellbeing in the community is the way in which we support and sponsor local community groups and sports clubs nominated by our members. Over the last year we have sponsored kits for more than 500 different clubs and groups.
