Innovation
With many client relationships evolving towards a more collaborative approach, we continue to seek new ways through which we can innovate and influence.
Innovation represents an important area of investment. Identifying and implementing new ideas leads to further improvements in our business as we look to address the rapidly evolving needs of our clients.
We are constantly looking to embed a culture of innovation across our entire organisation. By focusing on every aspect of our service delivery, innovation has become a natural part of how we manage health and safety, customer/client satisfaction, environmental impact, community engagement and employee experience.
Whilst we look to the wider market for new innovations and improvements in practice and process, we also encourage our most valuable resource - our people, to provide the innovative ideas that can positively influence our business. Our Innovate to Improve (i2i) programme is designed to encourage staff to promote ideas and innovations that can support us to achieve business targets.
