Nimbus

Nimbus develops and implements a process mapping and performance management solution called control-ES, which enables strategic initiatives to be adopted throughout an organisation consistently, from the CEO to the call centre operator, from finance to logistics.

Using control-ES, companies can measure and gain visibility of end-to-end processes throughout the organisation, define each individual's role, responsibility and accountability, and actively promote collaboration between departments, functions and individuals.

Typical initiatives where control-ES can help drive sustainable change are:

• Business Transformation and Process Improvement
• Integrated Compliance Management covering compliance with FDA regulations, Sarbanes Oxley, FSA and ISO
• Performance Management which includes process mapping as well as scorecarding and metrics
• Software package implementation (ie SAP, PeopleSoft, Oracle, Siebel)
• Business Process Outsourcing and Shared Services
• Business Continuity Management

Nimbus operates from its Head Office in Hampshire, UK, and has offices in mainland Europe, United States, Middle East and China.
