Benefits
The SIM platform is unique to Smith Stone Walters, and has been carefully developed around our internal best practice and after consultation with our clients.
The technological innovation of our unique case management system has transformed our working practices. By automating many of the administrative tasks integral to the immigration process via SIM, our caseworkers now have even more time to engage with our clients and deliver an unrivalled personalised service.
We are constantly looking to improve and make updates to our system, to ensure it can continue to meet the needs of our clients, partners and caseworkers alike. Below are some of the key features you can benefit from when using our technology.
On-demand access
To enable our clients to embrace its data and the full benefits SIM brings, our system allows an organisation to nominate any number of users, each of whom will have with their own login details and will have on-demand access to the platform.
24/7 access:
Users can login to SIM 24/7, from anywhere in the world using any web browser. This is particularly advantageous for global immigration programmes where there may be numerous HR or Global Mobility teams involved.
Visa expiry management
Managing visa expiry dates is an intrinsic part of any immigration programme. The tracking and reporting on visa expiry dates is a key functionality afforded by SIM. Our platform assists employers by ensuring they have the necessary expiry dates on file.
custom reporting:
Smith Stone Walters runs expiry reports on behalf of clients at recommended intervals agreed by both parties. Equally, ad-hoc reports, filtered by all manner of variables can be run at any given moment.
Data security
With such highly sensitive data being handled on a daily basis, at Smith Stone Walters we place data security at the forefront. SIM is at the core of our approach to this challenge, with all client data from emails to passport copies being only stored in SIM.
safe and secure:
SIM’s numerous security features ensure that our clients’ sensitive data is protected whilst granting authorised access to the right people at the right time, allowing us to maintain the highest standards of data protection and service delivery.
API compatibility
One of SIM’s key benefits is its ability to work in harmony with your existing HR systems whilst protecting your sensitive data. This is achieved through Application Programming Interface (API). The systems SIM can connect with are far ranging, from off-the-shelf HR/Mobility systems such as Workday or Equus Pro to custom built bespoke software that is used by specific organisations.
saving you time:
This compatibility drastically reduces the time it takes to manage immigration processes internally and further enhances data security.
