All development is managed within a Prince 2 product management structure, and includes all testing and quality control. We have worked with Microsoft, HP, Autonomy and OpenText products, as well as various search and taxonomy engines to provide fully functional and more basic systems. We specialise in SharePoint solutions which minimise development and maximise return on the out of the box configuration.
We help clients optimise their communications through intranet and the provision of enterprise search installation and optimisation. We have also worked with ontologies and taxonomies, in helping to business to both identify and effectively apply these in their information management tools.
Simple Innovation Associates firmly believes that corporate responsibility is integral to business success, and we are firmly committed to the welfare of our stakeholders including our communities, employees, environment, value chain, and shareholders. Domino expects every member of staff to take individual responsibility for their performance and to work together to achieve these goals.
Simple Innovation Associates are committed to providing our customers with the highest quality service at the best value possible.
We believe that the best method of meeting this commitment is to build strong relationships with like minded organisations that share our values and agree to our standards of business conduct.
At the core of everything we do, we seek to ensure that human dignity; safety and respect are upheld wherever we do business. Everyone of us has a part to play in supporting this through the choices we make. We will not profit from the misery or mistreatment of others. We take this stand because we believe it is the right thing to do socially, ethically and commercially.
Simple Innovation Associates' code of ethics requires compliance with the law of every country in which we do business. Our standards go beyond the legal minimum and require a high level of conduct. Simple Innovation Associates' employees are expected to comply with all laws affecting our business, and to act in every respect with honesty, fairness and integrity. The ethical code described should be regarded as more than a set of rules. It is a statement of beliefs that should guide employees' conduct in most situations. You can resolve most ethical questions in your workplace by taking time to consider whether you are acting fairly and honestly towards your fellow employees, the customer, suppliers and general public who rely on our Company.
Each Simple Innovation Associates employee has an individual responsibility to deal ethically with our customers and suppliers, fellow employees and the general public. All employees are expected to do more than merely avoid unethical conduct. They must also take the initiative and assume positive responsibilities for quality, honesty and fairness. Employees are expected to raise ethical concerns and report any actual or suspected ethical misconduct to their Manager or any Director as appropriate. Honesty also requires that employees refuse to participate either actively or passively in any cover-up of such misconduct. Each employee is expected to co-operate fully in any investigation of ethical matters by Simple Innovation Associates. 'Looking the other way' on potential ethical questions is in direct contradiction to Simple Innovation Associates' commitment to honesty and integrity and is not acceptable.
Employees, their spouses and other close family members are expected to avoid outside interests or activities that could be advanced at the expense of Simple Innovation Associates' interests. Such involvement may divide an employee's loyalty between Simple Innovation Associates and the outside interest and create a potential conflict of interest. Non-Simple Innovation Associates business involvement with a competitor, supplier or customer is strictly prohibited. Such interest could affect an employee's objectivity in the promotion of Simple Innovation Associates interests. Employees may not work for or provide advice or consulting services to a competitor, supplier or customer. Employees should not run any side business in their free time which will compete with, sell to, or buy from Simple Innovation Associates and should avoid any financial investments in competitors, suppliers or customers other than nominal investments in public companies.
Gifts from suppliers, customers or competitors to Simple Innovation Associates employees raise the appearance, if not the reality, of dishonest or unfair dealings. It is Simple Innovation Associates' policy that all business decisions be made impartially and fairly, and not on the basis of gratuities offered to employees. No employee, or any of his or her family, may solicit or receive favours, gifts, loans or other benefits (including service and discounts as well as material goods) from any supplier, customer or competitor. The only exception to this policy is that employees may receive reasonable hospitality and gifts (other than money) of nominal value which are customarily offered to others having a similar relationship with the supplier, customer or competitor. Simple Innovation Associates employees should exercise good judgement in deciding whether to accept a gifts of nominal value or reasonable hospitality and should resolve all doubts and questions in favour of declining to accept the offer.
