The Power of Sharing…<br />

The recent global crisis has brought many<br />

challenges. But it has also provided some<br />

important lessons.<br />

It has shown us that we need to take more<br />

control. If financial markets and institutions<br />

continue to dictate the goals of business,<br />

making profit our exclusive concern, then<br />

crisis will be a recurrent reality. Long-term<br />

value comes from seeing financial growth as<br />

part of a bigger picture encompassing society,<br />

humanity and the environment. We also<br />

need far greater transparency. The rise of the<br />

Socially Responsible Investor suggests that<br />

openness is the way forward. I believe we<br />

need to go beyond mere profit to build<br />

a stronger bond of trust between finance,<br />

business and society. This will give us the<br />

freedom and confidence to fully embrace the<br />

challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.<br />

05


… Recognising the connection between<br />

means<br />

I firmly believe that business needs to<br />

be more ‘human’ in how it develops and<br />

markets products and services. A user-centric<br />

revolution is already underway, and <strong>Steria</strong><br />

has been at the forefront of re-thinking the<br />

way technology is accessed and brought<br />

to market. We will take this even further,<br />

developing new ways to put technology<br />

into the hands of users, responding to their<br />

increasing demands for greater flexibility,<br />

responsiveness and control.<br />

I believe we need to be much more creative<br />

in how we respond to the challenges of a<br />

rapidly changing world. For me, creativity is<br />

about challenging existing models when they<br />

have reached their useful limits, responding<br />

to and anticipating the ever-changing needs<br />

of individuals and societies.<br />

06


By responding to these challenges, needs and<br />

opportunities effectively we realise the power<br />

of sharing. The energy of creative collaboration<br />

that recognises the connection between<br />

business, individuals and society, that we can<br />

harness to the ultimate benefit of all. Sharing<br />

has shaped <strong>Steria</strong>. It is at the heart of our<br />

culture (with employee shareholding defining<br />

our corporate governance); and in the way we<br />

work closely with our clients, taking on their<br />

challenges, so they can get closer to their own<br />

customers in turn.<br />

business, individuals and society… for the benefit of all.<br />

Collaborative creativity<br />

Innovation is less about ideas<br />

than their practical application,<br />

responding to business needs<br />

shaped by real-world challenges.<br />

Creativity is often found in<br />

deploying new ways of working<br />

with clients and partners to<br />

achieve common goals. <strong>Steria</strong>’s<br />

groundbreaking work in Aviation<br />

demonstrates powerfully the<br />

benefits of creative collaboration<br />

at work.<br />

Business sector Transport<br />

Expertise Systems Integration<br />

Geography France<br />

The skies above us might already appear to be at full traffic capacity.<br />

Yet this is predicted to double by 2020. Accommodating this safely and<br />

efficiently alongside rising oil prices, security threats and environmental<br />

pressures is the challenge <strong>Steria</strong> is helping to tackle as part of the<br />

‘GAIA Virtual Sky‘ project. GAIA will help deliver the objectives of the<br />

Single European Sky ATM (Air Transport Management) Research<br />

programme. SESAR is a European Commission initiative, dedicated to<br />

creating the world’s most efficient air transport infrastructure. One that<br />

can handle double current capacity; improve safety by a factor of 10;<br />

reduce the environmental impact of each flight by 10%; and halve Air<br />

Transport Management costs.<br />

This is where GAIA comes in. This landmark in collaborative creativity<br />

involved a number of partners including: Airbus; THALES; l’Ecole<br />

Nationale de l’Aviation Civile (ENAC); DGAC (the French Civil Aviation<br />

Authority)*, working together to help reorganise airspace through<br />

innovative simulation networking. ‘GAIA Virtual Sky’ is a flexible<br />

plug-and-play interface allowing the simulators of multiple partners<br />

(even competitors) to ‘talk’ to each other through a secure but highly<br />

realistic virtual network. It combines <strong>Steria</strong>’s expertise in systems<br />

integration and interoperability with the concept behind social<br />

networking and gaming. The ‘players‘ in the Virtual Sky are sharing<br />

invaluable experience of operating simulated cockpits and control<br />

towers collectively. Where once they worked in isolation, they now<br />

recreate the realities of a crowded airspace, with multiple human<br />

players and conditions in real-time operation. The more players<br />

participating, the more realistic the experience, the more able airports,<br />

aircraft, aircraft operators and managers will be prepared for the<br />

challenges of the future.<br />

The interface needed to work with multiple partners’ existing IT<br />

strategies and infrastructures, and provide complete security to allow<br />

competitors to collaborate. By working collaboratively we helped<br />

bring about a network that achieved economies, pooled knowledge,<br />

and tackled common challenges without compromising commercial<br />

sensitivities. This integrating of systems and people displays ‘coopetition’<br />

(competitive cooperation) at its best, enabling knowledge and efficiencies<br />

to be shared to bring real business advantages to all players.<br />

‘GAIA Virtual Sky’ is now operational, with new partners joining the<br />

network all the time. Where next? The sky is not the limit for the GAIA<br />

model. <strong>Steria</strong> is already scoping out its translation to the management<br />

of Norwegian maritime traffic, with clear applications for other<br />

transport networks. The flexible, secure and adaptable interface and<br />

‘cooptive’ approach can surely help other industries gain commercial<br />

advantage by embracing the power of sharing.<br />

*The ‘GAIA Virtual Sky’ project is realised within the Aerospace Valley competitiveness cluster<br />

and involves specialised SMEs such as Oktal, Cgx Aero InSys, Intespace and Alticode.


to rise to real-world challenges…<br />

The need to find more sustainable<br />

ways of working is a challenge<br />

affecting everyone, but it can<br />

benefit every organisation if<br />

environmental impact is lessened<br />

through more efficient business<br />

operations. Business efficiency is<br />

good news for everyone: you, your<br />

shareholders, your customers and<br />

the whole community.<br />

<strong>Steria</strong>’s work for the Northern Ireland Civil Service shows how<br />

streamlining processes, saving wastage, and optimising public finances<br />

can align sustainability, community and business objectives.<br />

The Northern Ireland Civil Service (NICS), is undergoing widespread<br />

reform, aiming to create greater efficiencies to better serve its citizens.<br />

A key pillar of this agenda is the move to a paperless office environment.<br />

This will make a significant difference, as 2.2 million documents were<br />

previously produced each year. This objective affects some 18,000 civil<br />

servants across 400 governmental buildings, requiring the largest<br />

document and records management installation in northern Europe.<br />

This migration from a paper-based to an Electronic and Document<br />

Records Management (EDRM) regime had to be achieved from scratch,<br />

as there was no prior EDRM experience in this environment, and no<br />

standardisation across 11 geographically dispersed and culturally<br />

diverse departments. A challenge <strong>Steria</strong> accomplished in just<br />

14 months from commission to completion.<br />

The task drew on <strong>Steria</strong>’s seasoned expertise and proven methodologies<br />

in deploying EDRM solutions. The need for absolute security for the<br />

system was paramount, given the sensitivity of many of the documents<br />

deriving from an administration with a troubled political history.<br />

Secure, but also immediately accessible and robust. A primary and<br />

secondary data centre, supported by 100s of new servers ensured<br />

continuity of service with water-tight security.<br />

But the challenge involved instilling understanding, and coordinating<br />

people, as much as infrastructure and protocols. Sharing knowledge<br />

and a common vision, as well as systems and procedures. And changing<br />

a collective mindset as well as transforming an office environment.<br />

Accomplishing all this was critical to the success of the project, and<br />

was achieved by a comprehensive training programme rolled-out in<br />

parallel with the process of digitisating and integration. This was a<br />

huge logistics endeavour, given the geographical dispersal of offices,<br />

and involved training 3,000 users a month on a roll-out road-show.<br />

Governance and teamwork were also vital to success, with an<br />

executive comprising the highest-level civil service and supplier<br />

representation to ensure decisions were made, and milestones were<br />

met. Sir John Semple, former Head of NICS and Chairman of the<br />

Records NI Governance Committee, comments: “<strong>Steria</strong> has delivered<br />

a significant Change Programme that in my experience has been an<br />

overwhelming success. The flexibility, professionalism and ‘can-do<br />

attitude’ are attributes I would encourage any potential partner<br />

to display whilst working on any major government project.”<br />

Engaging customers means<br />

always staying at least one step<br />

ahead of their demands. Being<br />

able to do this competitively,<br />

means having the systems in<br />

place to connect innovation<br />

with assured delivery as swiftly<br />

as possible. The quicker the<br />

innovation cycle, the more robust<br />

and responsive these systems<br />

need to be.<br />

Business sector Telecoms<br />

Expertise Testing<br />

Geography France<br />

Keeping pace with relentless market demands, but without risking<br />

product or service failure is the challenge <strong>Steria</strong> is tackling for<br />

French telecoms giant SFR, through our robust and responsive<br />

testing services.<br />

In the fast-moving, highly competitive world of telecommunications,<br />

customer loyalty depends on staying in tune with their lifestyles and<br />

responsive to their demands. You’re only as good as your last product<br />

or marketing initiative, requiring first-to-market innovation backed<br />

up by absolute assurance of delivery. Rigorous testing is vital to any<br />

marketing cycle, requiring deep sector knowledge, robust systems<br />

and flexible resourcing.<br />

That’s what SFR (France’s second telecoms operator) has come to<br />

expect and demand from <strong>Steria</strong>, a long-term partner who helps them<br />

maintain market share in an aggressively competitive field. Since<br />

2005 our comprehensive validation functions have been providing<br />

the critical interface between SFR’s services and its 20.4 million mobile<br />

customers, a green light to market relying on a shared commitment<br />

to responsiveness and results. Results are our responsibility and<br />

reputation with SFR, working closely with its ‘end-to-end validation‘<br />

unit (DIVB), based at Courbevoie near Paris to create and maintain<br />

a copy of its network. This allows us to replicate user demands across<br />

all platforms. From SMS to voice, data, games and customer service,<br />

the SFR brand experience relies on the supplier delivering what it<br />

promises through its marketing, and <strong>Steria</strong>’s validation systems<br />

responding to all its demands.<br />

Intelligent cost management<br />

16<br />

Achieving and sustaining the<br />

transformation of an organisation<br />

often depends on establishing<br />

mutual trust and a close-working<br />

commitment to achieving<br />

common goals.<br />

Business sector Health care<br />

Expertise Business Process<br />

Outsourcing<br />

Geography UK<br />

Such a commitment characterises <strong>Steria</strong>’s long-standing relationship<br />

with the UK National Health Service. Managing costs is a key priority<br />

of any efficient business; it can literally be a life saver when your<br />

business is health care and the benefits translate directly into improving<br />

critically needed health care services.<br />

The UK National Health Service is the world’s largest publicly-funded<br />

health service, divided into more than 400 separate health trusts, all<br />

requiring comprehensive back office support to deliver essential health<br />

services. <strong>Steria</strong> has entered into an innovative partnership with the UK<br />

Department of Health, delivering shared services for over 130 NHS<br />

trusts so far, enabling significant operational efficiencies in areas such<br />

as back office and Finance and Accounting services like managing the<br />

payment of wages for 200,000 NHS employees, managing €36 billion<br />

of NHS spend.<br />

NHS Shared Business Services employs over 1,400 people, processing<br />

more than 4.5 million transactions annually and aiming to achieve<br />

savings of between 20% and 40% for NHS trusts.<br />

The 50:50 joint venture between <strong>Steria</strong> and the Department of Health has<br />

been in place since 2005, and NHS Shared Business Services (NHS SBS)<br />

is now the market leader in business support services for the NHS.<br />

Being the largest platform in Europe for shared services, it shows how<br />

to achieve economies of scale whilst demonstrating world-class service<br />

excellence. In June 2010 the joint venture presented a €1.20 million<br />

royalties cheque to the Department of Health; this is in addition to the<br />

operational efficiencies and substantial cost savings already achieved<br />

by existing NHS SBS clients.<br />

This is a true partnership between <strong>Steria</strong> and the NHS to deliver real value<br />

under challenging conditions. We share more than services by working<br />

together. By listening and learning, <strong>Steria</strong> designed effective ways of<br />

operating and achieving continuous improvement, whether transferring<br />

NHS employees to NHS SBS in 2005 or establishing Client User Forums<br />

and special Working Parties to meet the changing needs of financial<br />

management in the NHS. Peter Coates CBE, Commercial Director, Department<br />

of Health observes: “If someone can deliver management information,<br />

professional business intelligence and better reporting at the right price,<br />

then it makes commercial sense to use them… We’ve had a hugely positive<br />

experience and our model is now 50% onshore / 50% offshore, operating<br />

as one organisation… It’s a true business partnership built on trust.”<br />

More than 27 million people in England currently have NHS healthcare<br />

delivered by NHS SBS clients. The partnership is targeted to double by<br />

2014, and looks set to free up to €275 million of savings over a 10 year<br />

period. This is the equivalent of 12,500 extra nurses, clearly demonstrating<br />

the real-world advantages of collaborative cost management innovation.<br />

Sharing services means improving health care, as well as making cost<br />

and efficiency savings.


for what really matters…<br />

The need for more robust<br />

corporate governance policies is<br />

a clear message to emerge from<br />

the financial crisis, with no sector<br />

under more intense scrutiny<br />

than financial services. Meeting<br />

compliance demands alone requires<br />

a wholesale re-thinking of systems<br />

and policies; doing this globally,<br />

in accord with diverse jurisdictions<br />

within a tight timeframe sets a<br />

real challenge. <strong>Steria</strong> helped a<br />

leading global investment bank<br />

achieve just this.<br />

Business sector Financial services<br />

Expertise Consulting<br />

Geography Europe wide<br />

Our client is a leader across Europe, and growing steadily in North<br />

America, Asia and key emerging markets. With 80,000 employees<br />

and about 2,000 branches in 70 countries, our client seeks to offer<br />

unparalleled financial services throughout the world.<br />

But strength and size come with responsibilities, one of which is<br />

ensuring its corporate governance policies fulfil, if not surpass,<br />

constantly emerging compliance regulations. One area firmly in the<br />

spotlight is establishing robust Anti Money Laundering measures,<br />

which need to meet complex stipulations across multiple jurisdictions,<br />

and business functions. That’s where <strong>Steria</strong> comes in.<br />

We were given the chance to start this project from scratch, working<br />

closely with key stakeholders to develop an approach that was<br />

consensual and feasible for all concerned. This meant translating a<br />

universal compliance imperative to the specific needs of five business<br />

divisions and numerous local jurisdictions. A close-working, highly<br />

consultative approach was essential to ensure this. Aligning the sales<br />

executives and infrastructure functions early on towards the same<br />

objectives helped guarantee a smooth implementation of our<br />

proposed solution.<br />

Meeting compliance regulation was one issue, a further consideration<br />

is how changes and policies impact on clients, so there was a need<br />

to balance legal obligations with customer relationships. So <strong>Steria</strong>’s<br />

consultants undertook an impact analysis, assessing the implications<br />

of policies for the bank’s customers. This allowed us to confidently<br />

develop a globally applicable blueprint serving as a minimum standard<br />

document. <strong>Steria</strong> designed and managed the whole programme,<br />

delivering a global but flexible solution that surpassed expectations<br />

for a complex project of this kind.<br />

The client’s internal Programme Manager for the project, a Managing<br />

Director, identified the skills mix of the <strong>Steria</strong> team as a real contributor<br />

to the success of the project. “On the one side, the subject matter<br />

experts contributed a deep understanding of the requirements, and<br />

the need for a business-division-specific interpretation to minimise any<br />

negative impact on the respective business models. On the other side,<br />

consultants with a strong expertise in strategic management assured<br />

an efficient set up and structuring of the initiative, comprising interface<br />

management to highest management in all business divisions, as well<br />

as the main infrastructure functions.”<br />

Both internal audits and external examinations were concluded with no<br />

findings at all: an extraordinary achievement for such a complex global<br />

and multi-divisional set up.<br />

sharing of our expertise powerfully at work.<br />

<strong>Steria</strong> are seasoned experts in payment<br />

solutions for banking, with Stecard at the<br />

forefront of chip technology for processing<br />

multiple transactions. Yet electronic payment<br />

processing on motorways has traditionally<br />

relied on the swiping of magnetic strips for<br />

authentication purposes. However, EMV<br />

standards are changing this, obliging<br />

motorway management to adopt smart<br />

card chip methods for toll transactions.<br />

<strong>Steria</strong> was the natural choice to help sanef,<br />

who manage a major part of the French<br />

motorway network, meet this challenge whilst<br />

ensuring continuity of service. sanef needed<br />

an open-ended solution, capable of managing<br />

high-volume secure banking flows without<br />

requiring a PIN, so the traffic keeps flowing.<br />

our clients with future-proof, highly<br />

efficient solutions.<br />

<strong>Steria</strong> has extensive experience deploying<br />

its Systems Integration and Application<br />

Management expertise to help Spanish<br />

regional Departments of Health serve their<br />

citizens more effectively.<br />

The Department of Health for the Valenciana<br />

region (Consellería de Sanitat de la Generalitat<br />

Valenciana), is responsible for a population of<br />

over 5 million. It is relying on <strong>Steria</strong> to evolve<br />

its Population Information System, used to<br />

manage its records of public health service<br />

users and model related requirements, and<br />

so improve the planning and allocation of<br />

resources within the administration. The new<br />

system will allow the Department to keep<br />

up with demographic changes, adapt to<br />

EU legislative changes, and better serve its<br />

citizens, through the more accurate allocation<br />

of healthcare demand with available resources<br />

in the region.<br />

Statsbygg, the public construction and<br />

property management body for Norway has<br />

chosen <strong>Steria</strong> to provide a new information<br />

management system for the construction<br />

projects and properties under its care.<br />

The main need is to improve internal and<br />

external collaboration, access to, control and<br />

sharing of information about construction<br />

projects, through a common user-oriented<br />

portal. This will enable greater cooperation<br />

between all agents through the life cycle<br />

of projects, from architectural inception<br />

to completion and management. It will be<br />

highly user-orientated, supporting diverse<br />

competencies and document formats:<br />

including 3D architectural drawings,<br />

Geo/map software, and MS Word documents.<br />

These will be seamlessly integrated through<br />

the portal and ECM solution based on<br />

Microsoft SharePoint 2010 and<br />

EMC Documentum (enterprise content<br />

management). The solution will also improve<br />

cooperation between tenants, management<br />

and suppliers for more than 2,300 buildings<br />

that Statsbygg currently manages.<br />

<strong>Steria</strong> are experts in mobile application,<br />

with specialist expertise in developing Field<br />

Service Management solutions to enhance<br />

the mobility of essential operations. We are<br />

now deploying this to transform the working<br />

practices and customer service of a major<br />

electricity supplier. The supplier, responsible<br />

for most of metropolitan France, sought to<br />

completely overhaul all its processes for<br />

emergency repairs to its infrastructure, and<br />

chose <strong>Steria</strong> to develop the systems and tools<br />

to make this happen. This involves equipping<br />

its 6,000 field force technicians with mobile<br />

communication tools that optimise their<br />

efficiency, manage the real-time flow of<br />

information. The PDAs combine geographical<br />

services to optimise journeys; synchronise and<br />

manage data-flow securely; and coordinate<br />

field force resourcing for more efficient<br />

servicing. This industrial integrated system<br />

keeps the field force in the field, allowing<br />

them to deal with orders and emergencies<br />

more quickly and efficiently.<br />

Our collaborative ethos ensures the sharing<br />

of expertise occurs across our geographies<br />

as well as service and sector specialisms.<br />

Holistic solutions to meet complex challenges.<br />

We can only break down silos, if we think<br />

and work holistically ourselves.<br />

<strong>Steria</strong> Norway are acknowledged leaders<br />

in biometric technology, providing state-ofthe-art<br />

solutions to meet the challenges of<br />

homeland security to control access and<br />

secure borders. Crime and terrorism, of<br />

course, thrive by crossing national boundaries;<br />

so the technology to combat these threats<br />

has to take a similarly joined-up approach.<br />

<strong>Steria</strong>’s Norwegian Centre of Biometric<br />

Excellence is helping this happen, sharing<br />

its two decades of experience to enable<br />

<strong>Steria</strong> design and deliver integrated biometric<br />

systems to over 25 European administrations.<br />

<strong>Steria</strong>Biometrics suite of solutions include<br />

fingerprint and facial recognition technology<br />

and software, in addition to secure<br />

transmission of data.<br />

Performance invariably results from<br />

improving efficiency; and efficiency<br />

often derives from the more intelligent<br />

management of essential resources:<br />

technology, processes and people.<br />

At <strong>Steria</strong> we create and coordinate<br />

systems, but we also constantly<br />

design new ways of supporting<br />

existing functions to enable businesses<br />

to do what they are good at, much<br />

more efficiently.<br />

<strong>Steria</strong> are established experts in Business<br />

Process Outsourcing, covering back-office<br />

capacity in payment and accounting, as well<br />

as front-office resourcing for essential<br />

customer-facing services. Our partnership<br />

with a UK Police Authority combines both,<br />

handling a range of functions to improve<br />

front-line police presence.<br />

Cleveland Police Authority, which serves<br />

560,000 citizens in the North East of England,<br />

has entered into a groundbreaking<br />

partnership with <strong>Steria</strong>. The landmark shared<br />

services deal will support Cleveland Police in<br />

delivering its vision of Putting People First and<br />

provides a transformation model for other UK<br />

authorities and forces.<br />

<strong>Steria</strong> is working with the force and the<br />

authority to deliver key services, including<br />

call handling and preparation of criminal<br />

case files, as well as being responsible for<br />

finance, HR, payroll, commissioning and<br />

fleet management. For the Authority, the<br />

partnership will deliver €60 million in cashable<br />

savings; and for the citizens of Cleveland it<br />

means improved community policing services<br />

as well as potential employment opportunities<br />

at a new state-of-the-art shared services centre.<br />

Businesses are increasingly demanding<br />

IT infrastructure resourcing that is not only<br />

robust, reliable and value for money, but<br />

has the flexibility to scale up and down<br />

in response to fluctuating needs. <strong>Steria</strong>’s<br />

innovative Infrastructure on Command<br />

product achieves exactly this, bringing the<br />

benefits of ‘cloud computing’ down to earth<br />

and in the hands of users. This pioneering<br />

partnership with Cisco systems, relies on our<br />

Global Delivery Model (combining onshore,<br />

offshore and nearshore), to provide unrivalled<br />

flexibility of servicing. On Command can<br />

provide bespoke private Cloud implementation<br />

through to public and hybrid Cloud offerings<br />

to enable the best value and efficiency for<br />

all needs and policies.<br />

Where to find the <strong>Steria</strong> teams<br />

Our organisation comprises many different<br />

cultures across the world. Our diversity is also our<br />

strength, as each individual component brings an<br />

extra dimension to the way we work as a whole.<br />

But our success and cohesion as a company<br />

and a culture derives from a ‘One <strong>Steria</strong>’ outlook<br />

and the sharing of common values.<br />

What makes us different<br />

What we do, and the way we do things<br />

rests fundamentally on who we are:<br />

a growing community of talented<br />

individuals, committed to achieving<br />

great things together.<br />

At <strong>Steria</strong> we thrive on collaboration: with our<br />

clients, first and foremost, working as one<br />

team to achieve results; but also with each<br />

other, sharing a wealth of experience and<br />

insight that reflects our founding values:<br />

Simplicity, Openness and Respect.<br />

Ultimately <strong>Steria</strong> is about people not<br />

technology, maintaining the ‘human touch’<br />

in everything we do. We pride ourselves on<br />

being the very human face of IT and business<br />

services; championing the belief that<br />

technology should never be an end in itself,<br />

but at the service of us all. Whilst what we<br />

do is often behind the scenes, the benefits<br />

it brings are tangible and decisive for<br />

individuals, society and the wider world.<br />

Sharing is central to our corporate governance<br />

model, unique for a listed company. To this<br />

day, <strong>Steria</strong>’s main shareholders are its<br />

employees, who hold 20% of the capital,<br />

allowing them a significant say in the strategic<br />

direction of the Company. This model fosters<br />

a culture of collective entrepreneurialism that<br />

drives our success; allowing us to grow,<br />

diversify and succeed as a company whilst<br />

remaining true to our founding values.<br />

Sharing our values…<br />

28


The difference we make<br />

<strong>Steria</strong> was founded with the vision to combine business<br />

performance with social values. <strong>Steria</strong> has fostered a culture<br />

of ethical entrepreneurialism ever since. Shareholder value<br />

and stakeholder responsibility remain the dual drivers of<br />

our enterprise, supported by sustainability strategy dedicated<br />

to our making a positive impact in everything we do.<br />

In our marketplace<br />

<strong>Steria</strong> is a member of the United Nations<br />

Global Compact, which informs our stringent<br />

code of ethics subscribed to by every senior<br />

manager. This offers guidance to ensure<br />

business decisions safeguard human<br />

rights, combat corruption and protect the<br />

environment. We make more sustainable<br />

operations possible for our clients, delivering<br />

solutions for driving efficiencies which lessen<br />

environmental impact. Our own commitment<br />

to ethical and sustainable business practice<br />

extends to our purchasing policy, established<br />

in a Charter.<br />

In our workplace<br />

Our employees’ commitment and development<br />

are closely linked to the founding values they<br />

share: Simplicity, Respect, Openness, Creativity<br />

and Independence. We are committed to<br />

developing our people through training and<br />

development, their personal wellbeing and<br />

health and safety in the workplace. Diversity<br />

and equal opportunity are actively promoted<br />

via a broad range of policies and support<br />

throughout our Group. And, as major<br />

shareholders, our employee’s interests<br />

are closely aligned with the success of<br />

the company.<br />

In our communities<br />

At <strong>Steria</strong> we are reaching out to our<br />

community partners to improve the lives<br />

and prospects of many; promoting access<br />

to education, IT resources and employment<br />

in India, Cambodia and Europe. Our clients<br />

often partner with us on these projects,<br />

sharing the inspiration and empowerment<br />

we can achieve together.<br />

For the environment<br />

We are integrating green thinking, and<br />

implementing green action throughout <strong>Steria</strong>.<br />

This has resulted in a carbon offset programme,<br />

as well as a partnership with leading carbon<br />

management experts to help us reduce our<br />

carbon footprint significantly. We have<br />

adopted the Global Reporting Initiative<br />

guidelines to frame environmental data,<br />

and have achieved ISO 14001 certification<br />

in seven of our countries, with a commitment<br />

to becoming fully certified in 2011.<br />

Our key sustainability<br />

achievements and accolades<br />

In the last two years alone we<br />

Achieving 75.68% (among the best scores)<br />

in the Gaïa sustainability index for companies<br />

Sharing our vision


The ultimate test of innovation is its<br />

impact: on individuals, communities and<br />

the environment. Ensuring this impact is<br />

positive is at the heart of our vision for<br />

what technology should and can achieve,<br />

determining how we help our clients<br />

improve their own customers’ lives.<br />

for the future…<br />

At <strong>Steria</strong> we are constantly devising<br />

more efficient, practical, profitable,<br />

safer, greener, faster ways of doing<br />

things. The silent power behind the<br />

systems that make the modern world<br />

turn. The more complex the world<br />

becomes, the greater the need for<br />

technology to keep things simple<br />

and in touch with human needs.<br />

<strong>Steria</strong>’s systems enable real-time data-flow to help the<br />

traffic run smoothly in some of the world’s busiest cities;<br />

airport taxis coordinate with air traffic; and logistics<br />

operations serve customers more efficiently.<br />

Mobile<br />

Healthy<br />

Secure<br />

Productive<br />

<strong>Steria</strong>’s STORM emergency management system has been<br />

adopted by a number of European countries, making<br />

services more responsive to the critical needs of citizens.<br />

32<br />

By designing and running an extranet for experts to share<br />

data about diseases across Europe, we help combat the<br />

epidemics that threaten populations.


The basics that remain essential to our<br />

existence: to feed, clothe and shelter ourselves<br />

in safety, health and comfort. With food<br />

and garments in the shops when we need<br />

them, and the power to cook our food and<br />

keep ourselves warm, there at our command<br />

instantaneously. The ability to protect<br />

ourselves from the epidemics that continue<br />

to haunt our increasingly sanitised lives.<br />

The simple things we tend to take for<br />

granted, but that make a real difference to<br />

the quality of our lives every day. That our<br />

patient records are up to date and accessible<br />

to the professionals who need them to care<br />

for us. That emergency services can respond<br />

to our urgent needs accurately and efficiently.<br />

That all sorts of ‘paperwork’ and payments<br />

can be dealt with online at a time that suits<br />

us. That our very identities are protected by<br />

the banks and institutions that manage our<br />

money. Even that the fast food we order<br />

can arrive at our doors piping hot!<br />

We now expect to remain in touch where<br />

ever we are in the world, and that we can<br />

retain our phone numbers when we change<br />

our providers. We demand greater mobility,<br />

and rely on those who transport us to<br />

get us there smoothly, securely and with<br />

reduced environmental cost. We want to<br />

plan our journeys with real-time information<br />

on traffic conditions; and expect to move<br />

freely and securely across geographical<br />

borders (knowing that those who would<br />

threaten that security cannot).<br />

<strong>Steria</strong> helps to make these things happen.<br />

We are committed to making a world where<br />

the ambitions of business and our shared<br />

responsibility to the planet are not only<br />

aligned, but clearly pursuing the same<br />

agenda. Not satisfied with living green<br />

ourselves, we want to enable our clients<br />

to become greener too – through helping<br />

large corporates control their energy<br />

consumption, through helping public bodies<br />

find smarter ways of storing their information,<br />

through providing state-of-the-art shared<br />

data centres for several clients, enabling<br />

them to benefit from a virtualised environment.<br />

Connected<br />

<strong>Steria</strong> developed and run the systems to allow Portability<br />

of mobile numbers across different providers. Ensuring<br />

the various systems ‘speak to’ means that customers<br />

can too.<br />

Sustainable<br />

<strong>Steria</strong>’s Single Sign On solution for a major company,<br />

radically reduces the expense and time wasted on over<br />

100,000 different passwords used by its employees.<br />

<strong>Steria</strong> is helping numerous local governments pioneer<br />

best practice sustainability, better serving citizens and<br />

helping the environment through greater efficiencies.<br />

Behind the scenes, every day,<br />

<strong>Steria</strong> is hard at work, looking<br />

after the clients who look after<br />

their citizens and customers.<br />

Helping to build a future which<br />

we all want to share.<br />
