| Traditional staffing
companies compete on price, resume, and response time.
Unfortunately, none of these factors create
sustainable value for a business. Cheap
resources that are not productive will actually increase
a company's cost. Organizations that have no measurable
way to validate a resume can cause expensive, human
resource challenges when a company realizes they hired
the wrong employee. Similarly, starting a project a few
weeks earlier, but with the wrong personnel can cost a
company months of valuable time. Improving's certified
consulting services challenge these traditional staffing
values, proposing alternatives which virtually
eliminate the associated business risk. As a
result, we present our clients with solutions that
provide consistency, reliability, and real business
value. |
| Improving maintains a
comprehensive professional file, Pro-File™, for each
of our consultants. This is much more than a typical
resume. It contains a complete and verified
employment history, previous customer evaluations,
and written professional references. Furthermore, it
contains a detailed personality report (D.I.S.C)
which identifies behavioral trends and management
suggestions. Not only does the Pro-file™ act as a
valuable management and human resource tool, but
over time, it can save a company significant time,
effort, and money. |
Improving, it is a value in
everything we do. As a result, we dedicate ourselves
to continuous quality, actively and regularly
seeking feedback and suggestions. At least once
every 90 days, we meet with our clients to review
our performance -- as a company, as individuals, and
as a service organization. Through a short, but
effective series of interviews, we are able to
measure our performance, both objectively (standard
questions) and subjectively (open ended questions).
The simplicity and frequency of these discussions
allows us to mitigate risk, avoid pitfalls, and most
importantly, improve the service we provide our
customers. |
During our employment
process, every consultant participates in a series
of intense assessments. These evaluations include
management, engineering, architecture, design, and
technology components. Based upon these assessments,
written professional references, and a consultant's
engagement performance, each employee receives one
of three Improving endorsed certifications.
Associated with a certification is an unconditional
money back guarantee (duration varies based on level
of certification). |
