Planning
- Planning service
- Yes
- How the planning service works
- IT Systems commence project initiation with the client to determine their needs, requirements and budget for cloud services. From this IT Systems develop, in liaison with the clients steering group a functional specification which is then developed into a technical specification to meet the clients requirements. This is then assessed based upon the clients needs and budget. Should it be correct and true the design is frozen, procurement takes place and the project moves on to implementation planning.

Covid-19 recovery
IT Systems employees are its most valuable assets. They are the face of our company and instill our ethos, beliefs and practices. Our staff literally are what make IT Systems the company it is both now and in the future. In line with this our company ethos is that a person’s health and wellbeing must always come before the needs of the company. Should staff require time for mental health, physical health and/or medical needs this is given without hesitation, question or with any penalisation.
We are all human. At these times where we could be potentially at our most vulnerable we should be supportive, empathetic and above all kind to what is going on with others. IT Systems staff are not penalised in any manner; be it financially or leave-based, to recover from mental health, physical health and/or medical needs and are supported throughout.Tackling economic inequality
IT Systems believes in creating employment opportunities for all regardless of socio-economic background and academic qualifications. We do not factor in someone’s socio-economic background when undertaking employment but are more interested in the type of person they are. Coupled with this IT Systems offers a robust and well-rounded apprenticeship programme tailored to the individual to empower them to raise their skill set and knowledge in an ever changing and progressive industry.
IT Systems proactively encourages all its employees to enhance and grow their skill set. To do this, we as a company do not believe learning should be stymied by factors such as cost or, if required, travel. Any and all barriers are removed from professional development as a matter of course to enable our staff to be the very best they can be.
Further afield from our own staff, IT Systems feels duty bound to actively progress members of our own supply chains to raise standards for all. We believe in home-grown talent and excellence. As such, IT Systems actively promotes using companies in our supply chain that are local and/or reside in our region. In doing this we are not only raising the profile of our local and regional environment but also providing quality employment to people in our area.
As an ISO 27001:2013 company with UK-GDPR Practitioners we provide complimentary data security and GDPR training to all members of our supply chain. In the first hand this enables us to ensure our supply chain meet our needs in terms of data protection and information security. In doing this however, companies in our supply chain are enhanced and can expand their opportunities in confirming their awareness, alignment and working to national and internationally recognised standards.Equal opportunity
IT Systems prides itself in its commitment to equality and diversity in the workplace. As a company, we view competency and capability above gender-based, sexuality-based and disability-based stereotypes. In a widely male-dominated industry, IT Systems is proactive in raising the profile amongst women (including all who identify as women) of opportunities to enter the IT sector.
At IT Systems we do not believe opportunities for development and progression should be dictated by ones background. Our employment process disregards people’s socio-economic background as a factor for employment and focuses on the quality person themselves. Our apprentice programme gives individuals from all socio-economic backgrounds the opportunity to gain industry recognised qualifications and experience work life in the IT sector.
IT Systems is encouraged that equality is instilled in the company as:
• 30% of IT Systems staff do not identify as male
• Over 20% of IT Systems are members of the LGBTQ+ community
• IT Systems workplaces are recognised as being DDA compliant
• IT Systems staff come from a variety of socio-economic backgrounds
• Over 40% of IT Systems staff have either undertaken or are currently undertaking an apprenticeship route to qualification
