ESG Priorities

In 2022, we realigned our ESG program priorities to align with the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) guidelines. The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set forth by UNCG now serve as the compass for our ESG business strategy.

Our core values are the foundation that steer our decision-making, ensure ethical operations, and maintain legal compliance. Learn more

Current ESG Initiatives:

  • UNGC SDG 1: End poverty in all its forms everywhere
  • UNGC SDG 4: Quality Education
  • UNGC SDG 5: Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls
  • UNGC SDG 8: Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all
  • UNGC SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities
  • UNGC SDG 16: Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions

Environmental

At Miles Enterprise Solutions, we began our formal ESG journey in 2020.  We announced our support of the Ten Principles of the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) in the areas of Human Rights, Labor, Environment, and Anti-Corruption.

We committed to integrating the Ten Principles into our business strategy, culture, and daily operations, and contributing to United Nations goals, particularly the Sustainable Development Goals.  We also ensure that our value chain including suppliers, communities and other business relationships pledge to demonstrate this commitment through our Global Supplier Code of Conduct.

Sustainability

Miles Enterprise Solutions demonstrates support for diverse communities. We invest in job training, education and create opportunities for all people, regardless of race, ethnicity, culture, gender or sexual orientation. Inclusion and Diversity is at the cornerstone of the Miles culture.  We believe that different perspectives strengthen our work environments, communities and ultimately the planet. Our competitive advantage is when differing perspectives and lived experiences are working together to achieve more.

Our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion is further displayed through our team’s participation in business mentorship programs, boards, and volunteerism at business panels, podcasts, and community events that focus on diverse and veteran populations.

Governance

The Miles Strategic Plan includes investing in our infrastructure and expanding our governance strategy to provide a strong foundation for sustainability and long-term growth. Our corporate governance policies are being implemented in a way that facilitates being a responsible company:

  1. Transparent and Accountable Leadership that promotes ethical behavior and accountability
  2. Board Independence and Expertise that reduces conflicts of interest
  3. Effective Risk Management to mitigate operational, financial, legal and reputational risks
  4. Long-Term Focus to encourage sustainable practices that contribute to long-term growth
  5. Compliance and Ethics that emphasize compliance with laws, regulations, and ethical standards through robust internal controls, conducting regular audits and promoting a culture of integrity and ethical behavior throughout the organization.
  6. Investor Rights and Engagement to ensure transparent disclosure of financial information and timely reporting

Talent Creators

At Miles, we create opportunities in the information technology industry for individuals who have traditionally been underrepresented.  As a skills-building organization, we realize that individuals may be experiencing a corporate environment for the first time.  We support strengthening our communities, encouraging family sustaining careers and economic mobility by investing in their training and education. We create a sense of belonging and provide the development tools that are instrumental to their success.

We also encourage our team to bring their whole selves to work and show up authentically.  We believe the most authentic version of ourselves is the best version. Our corporate culture is enhanced, and our business remains competitive with a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workforce.
