TAB 10- EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
GDKN is a global full service staffing firm with a reputation for quality, superior technical skills,
and proven customer service oriented results. Our mission is to understand our clients'
business needs and their industry. We use Information Technology in meeting and resolving
their complex business and technical challenges. GDKN has been providing the highest quality
of integrated, full lifecycle staffing services since 1993, across a broad range of business and
technical platforms.
At GDKN we believe that for organizations to exceed the expectations of their customers in a
competitive environment, formation of a value chain founded on core competencies is
imperative. GDKN perseveres to form such a value chain . This enables GDKN to help our clients
use technology to improve their core business processes. This allows our customers to focus on
their core competencies.
At GDKN we listen, learn, and then co-create business solutions. GDKN solves client problems
through a durable global infrastructure and powerful methodologies. We deliver profitable
results that accelerate our clients' competitive advantage.
Our goal is to assist our clients in leveraging their resources to improve business performance.
Utilizing a knowledge-based approach, we bring our collective thinking to each engagement.
We are committed to making our processes accessible, sharing information and insights and
inviting participation to and from our Clients. It is this ability that makes the GDKN process so
special.
We provide a climate where employees are continually developing their skills and are
committed to meeting and exceeding client expectations. We invest a significant portion of our
gross income on training our employees to continually improve efficiency and productivity
while maintaining the professionalism required for conducting business in a competitive
marketplace. This enables the employees to stay abreast with the latest technologies and new
developments.
Our employees are on the high end of the spectrum with respect to their compensation while
our se rvice delivery costs at the low end. This ena bles us to deliver top quality of services at
very competitive prices. We believe that our employees are our most important assets and
back that up with excellent compensation package and benefits.
GDKN is a Certified MBE and an approved SOB.
GDKN has been involved in the Staffing industry for over 20 Years.
VISION
We believe in focusing on building strong individual client relationships. Therefore, the
value that we place on our relationship is a priority. We are large enough to provide
temporary staff augmentation services to Broward College and small enough to provide
the personal detailed attention and commitment required to provide service of the
highest quality. Additionally, GDKN is large enough to provide its workers with superior
benefits and training opportunities, and small enough to stay close to their projects and
personal goals. GDKN's perspective places tremendous value on our long-term
relationships with our clients and the quality of the service that we provide to them .

ICOMMITMENT TO QUALITY
At GDKN we believe that the quality of our people speaks for itself. Our extensive
recruiting and interviewing process ensures that our consultants are "cream of the
crop". When GDKN provides our clients with quality people, this automatically
generates requests for additional quality people. As a result 75% of our business is
repeat business and often turns into long-term assignments. Satisfied clients such as
these are the reason why quality is our number one concern .

When GDKN was founded in 1993, it was built upon a philosophy that true success
manifests itself in meaningful relationships. At GDKN, we believe that relationships that
are built on mutual tru st are the relationships that last. It is this long-term philoso phy
that generates an attitude of service towards our clients. This mind-set is prevalent all
the way from our president and management team to our consultants. Service means
that we maintain a professional and friendly demeanor even under adverse
circumstances. Service means that we listen carefully to our customers and pay close
attention to details. Service means that customer satisfaction is always GDKN's top
priority.

position, and are trained on a regular basis to keep them abreast with the latest
developments in the marketplace. These Account Managers will, from time to time,

: GDKN'S RECRUITMENT CYCLE INCLUD ING RCRMS (HOME GROWN CUSTOM ATS)
Communication with the client is an extremely important ingredient in ensuring the success of
our relationship with our clients.
At GDKN we listen, learn, and then co-create solutions to our customers' needs. GDKN solves
client problems through a durable infrastructure and powerful methodologies. We deliver
profitable resu lts that accelerate our clients' competitive advantage.
Communication is the key to success. It is imperative that the lines of communication are open
not only between GDKN and the client management but also with the representatives of the
end-user-community. The use of project methodologies, and associated checklists ensures duediligence on the part of the GDKN team members and ensures that all the t's are crossed and i's
are dotted .
If in doubt about any of the customer recruitment needs we contact the responsible client
employee to seek clarification. We utilize a template to ask questions from the customer about
the resource they seek. Some of the example questions in the template are:
• Skill set sought
• Bu siness Area expertise sought
• Knowledge of tools sought
• Communication skill level required
•
Required Vs Desired skills etc..... .
This helps us in narrowing down our search criteria to deliver most accurate results. Once we
deliver the choices of potential candidate resumes, GDKN then communicates with the
customer manager to ensure that we are meeting their expectations. If there are any concerns
at that point we then document and act on resolving those concerns to deliver the right results
to our customers. Documentation is important every step of the way so that we avoid the same
issues in the future.
Commun ication with each of th e stakeholder is maintained through period ic status meetings
and reports.
We conduct a thorough screening upfront, to reduce the likelihood of errors. We list below the
steps that comprise our recruitment methodology.
•..........................._................_. ..................................................................... ...... .............................................................................................................................................. .
! THOROUGH REQUIREMENT ASSESSMENT
GDKN provides a single point of contact to each customer. Our Client Liaisons are very busin ess
sawy and they have a very good understanding of the marketplace. They conduct an extensive
assessment ofthe client requirements by:
(a) reviewing the client requirements and then
(b) by interviewing the client manager to better understand the project requirements, the work
environment, etc.
We list below some of the logical steps of our process
o Discuss and understand the resource requirements with Client Manager
o Create a Skills Matrix by extracting the relevant information from the
requirement details received from Broward College.
o Create a job description and add that to our proprietary home grown Order
Management System (see an example below)

iSEARCH FOR THE RIGHT CANDIDATE
The above assessment process provides our recruiters with all the information they need to
start searching for the right candidate. GDKN's recruiters gather the information provided by
its clients and start the search for the best candidate, to fit the client's requirements.
At GDKN we use state of the art techniques to search for the candidates. GDKN has a
proprietary state-of-the-art recruiting software application and an in-house top-of the line
successfu l, recruiting division with access to several job-boards such as Monster, Dice, Hotjobs,
CareerBuilder, The Ladders, Beyond .com etc. GDKN also utilizes government unemployment
agencies such as Workforce One, Craig's List, social networking sites such as Linked-In,
Facebook, Twitter, etc. In addition, GDKN has state-of-the- art Business Intelligence (BI) tools
which have the ability to data-mine resources from its internal databases with close to one
million resumes. This provides efficient and effective resume search and improves efficiency
in recruiting by increasing our recruiters' ability to quickly find qualified candidates. The Bl
tools enable significant reduction in sourcing time by eliminating/ reducing 'false positives',
resulting in truly qualified candidates quickly. The Bl tools also enable our recruiters to move
beyond key word search and identify talent based on what the candidates are capable of
doing, not just the words they place in their resumes/profiles.
GDKN's recruiters also use its proprietary state-of-the-art web-based recruiting software
application which allows them to track the client-needs and candidates for those needs. They
also use this system for planning and managing their day-to-day tasks to ensure the process of
recruitment for client-needs runs smooth ly. Management reports available through this system
allow the Recruiting Manager to be on top of all the recruiters and ensure that nothing falls
through the cracks.
This proprietary management system is maintained by in-house technical support at GDKN and
enhancements are made, as the market evolves to improve the processes and ensure that our
clients are served in the best possible way.
Advertisements in the trade publications, Job fairs, flyers and our business alliances all over the
country are some of the other ways that are used to look for the perfect fit for every client
requirement. All in all we do not leave any stone unturned.
All in all we do not leave any ston e unturned.
PR E-SC REEN ING
On ce the candidates are identified, GDKN's Recruiters then conduct a pre-screening to ensure
that each candidate m eet s the minimum proficiency necessary for the client requirement in the
areas of work experience, education and training. This may include online skills assessment
testing. A check list of suggested question s is then utilized for this effort.
.......................................................................................................................................................................................................................... .............................................................................................................
ICUSTOMER SERVICE SCREEN ING
Upon passing the pre-screening each candidate is interviewed by GDKN's Client Relation
Executives who extensively examine the candidate's work history, customer orientation skills,
professionalism, reliability, flexibility, positive attitude and team attitude. A check list of
suggested questions is then utilized for this effort.
;
.......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
I TECHNICAL SCREENING
The eligible candidates filtered through the above process are then interviewed by our
technical managers or consultants who are proficient in the areas of expertise involved. This
three tier process eliminates the undesirable resources.

....................- - -·--···-···---············..........- ......_,
I E-CONSENT, FINALIZE INITIAL AGREEMENT WITH THE CONSULTANT
Candidate that makes it out successfully from the above screening process is then sent an
Electronic Consent From (a web-link is sent). The candidate then logs-in and signs the Consent
Form in compliance with the ESIGN Act and UETA, where we capture and record the
Timestamp, Physical Location and IP Address of the candidate. This electronically signed
consent form provides us the candidate's authorization to present their resume to FOOT and
proceed to the next steps in our screening process.
Before presenting the candidate to our clients, this consent form enables us to finalize the
negotiations, and ensures that the candidate understands client's benefits, compensation plan,
philosophy etc. We realize that effective commun ication with both our candidates and our
clients is the key to a successfu l bu siness relationship.

j SKI LLS TESTING AND ASSESSMENT
_____.............................................................................................
Each individual candid ate is required to go through a skills assessment process. This assessment
ranges from online testing for more technically demanding positions to typing speed test s,
computer skills test, phone interviews for other positions. We have several proprietary online
testing tools available to us that are used to conduct these test , such as 'Prove-it' testing. The
test s are done in the various job areas such as Administration, Finance, Information
Technology .
...................................................................... .................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
ICLIENT INTERVIEWS
We arrange candidate interviews directly with the client's personnel once we have
accomplished a positive eva luati on of the ca ndidate. An initial phone interview is typically
arranged, followed by a face-to-face interview if required.
FINAL SCREENING PROCESS

ORIENTATION OF NEW EMPLOYEES
Coordinating an orientation program for new employees (also referred to as onboarding) is an
important step to help introduce new employees to our team, familiarize them with the
workplace, and create a positive first impression. Employee orientation helps to increase
retention and enhance employee productivity.
Below is our New Employee Orientation Checklist:

SUPERVISORY PLAN
We share with you some of our internal processes and procedures. At GDKN the supervisory
plan comprises of following 4 components:
•
Reward good performance
•
Proactively identify the problem and take appropriate action
•
Progressive discipline
•
Just cause self audit
•···················································································································
IREWARD GOOD PERFORMANCE
...........................................................................................................................................................................................................
We believe that rewarding top performers not only is the right thing to do but it makes
business sense. Rewarding good performance encourages others to learn from the example of
the successful employees. It's not only an incentive to the employee receiving the reward to
keep up the good work they do but, also an incentive for others to achieve the same level of
performance. We have set procedures and measurement metrics for our in-house employees.
We will be glad to work with the Broward College managers to develop a similar program for
the temporary staff at their facilities.
I PRO ACTIVE LY I DENTIFY THE PROBLEM A ND TAKE APPROPR IATE ACTION
When facing a performance discrepancy (a gap between expectations and actual performance}
we ensure that employees have:
1. The performance standards the training the direction, and
2. The feedback to do the job before moving to disciplinary actions.
We create a Performance Improvement Plan if we feel additional information is necessary in
any of these four areas. If we feel confident that we have provided each of these opportunities
to our employees, then we have addressed our supervisory responsibilities. If a performance
discrepancy still exist s with a particular employee we :
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Make it explicitly clear to the employee what is expected
Repeat the performance standards to the employee
Enforce the performance standards
Document the performance discrepancy and actions we have taken, and then
Begin the Progressive Disciplin e Process
Apply th e stand ards of Just Cause.
Each situation can be classified in one of the category most similar to the problem :
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Missed deadlines
Attendance-related issues (unscheduled absences, excessive absences, tardiness}
Poor quality work
Inappropriate behavior
Insubordination
Not doing enough work
Personality conflicts
Rule Violation (dress codes, call-in procedures, break-times, departmental policy
violations, using phone inappropriately, etc}.

l PROGRESSIVE DISCIP LIN E
We adopt a progressive discip line approach towards employees that violate GDKN's policies.
Progressive discipline is the process of using increasingly severe steps or measures when an
employee fails to correct a problem after being given a reasonable opportunity to do so. The
underlying principle of sound progressive discipline is to use the least severe action that we
believe is necessary to correct the undesirable situation. We increase the severity of the action
only if the condition is not corrected.
Some guidelines we take into consideration are:
•
•
•
•
•
Thoroughly investigate the situation which includes obtaining the employee's
explanation or response prior to administering discipline.
Document the process and resu lts of our investigation.
It is acceptable to repeat a step if we feel that it will correct the problem . This may be
the case if some time has passed since it was last necessary to address the issue and the
situation has only recently reappeared. Or perhaps, the employee misunderstood or we
feel there is value in doing it again in a clearer fashion . If repeating the step works, the
situation has been resolved without escalating it unnecessarily. However, we remain
aware that an employee may be led to believe that nothing worse will happen if we
continually repeat a step. If repeating a step does not resolve the problem, we can then
move on to a higher step.
The goal is to modify the unacceptable behavior or improve the performance. The goal
is not to punish the employee but to more strongly alert the employee of the need to
correct the problem.
There is no rigid set of steps nor is there an inflexible rule that all steps must be
followed before terminating an em ployee. The circumstances of each case and our
judgment as to the least severe action that is necessary to correct the situation will help
determine which step to use.
•
•
•
Early, less stringent, measures are skipped for serious offenses such as theft, fighting,
drug or alcohol use or sale. All steps are typically used for attendance or general work
performance problems.
While usually unnecessary, it is acceptable to have a witness or note taker present when
meeting with the employee during the progressive discipline process. Our witness/note
taker should never be a peer of the emp loyee. GDKN's policy permits the employee to
have a witness if he or she wishes.
Human Resources is available for consultation at any step of the process, but it is
especially important at the steps of suspension and termination .
Essential elements of each progressive discipline step
Disciplinary actions are often overturned completely or reduced to a lesser level when any of
the essential elements of progressive discipline are missing.
•
•
•
The employee is explicitly informed of the unacceptable behavior or performance and is
given specific work-related examples. It is not sufficient to assume that the employee
knows what the problem is.
Explaining acceptable behavior or performance standards and give the employee
reasonable time to comply. This may be a longer time frame if a skill needs to be
learned or a shorter time frame if it is a behavior to be changed.
The employee is informed of the consequences of failing to comply. This is not a threat,
rather it gives the employee reasonable expectations of the consequences if change
does not occur.
These three essential elements need to be present at each step of progressive discipline and
are discussed prior to taking disciplinary action.
Typical progressive disciplinary steps :
Cou nseling/ Verbal Warning
Written warning
Termination/Dismissal
Counseling/ Verbal Warning
Counseling is usually the initial step.
• We conduct the whole counseling session in a "low-key" manner. We are friendly, yet
firm.
• This discussion is done in private. We tell the employee the purpose for the discussion.
Identify the problem.
• We try not to be mechanical or read from a piece of paper. We have documentation
available to serve as a basis for the discussion.
• We seek the input from the employee about the cause of the problem.
•
Where possible we jointly identify a solution to the problem; otherwise, we identify
your desired solution.
• We clarify the employee 's understa nding of our expectations concerning the situation.
• We let the employee know that possible disciplinary action may follow if the problem is
not corrected .
• We try to get a commitment from the employee to resolve the problem.
• We schedule follow up with the employee. Provide feedback. Let the employee know
how he/she is progressing on solving the problem.
Considerations:
Counseling sessions are used to bring a problem to the attention of the employee before it
becomes so serious that it has to become part of a written warning and placed in the
employee's file.
The purpose of this discussion is to alleviate any misunderstandings and clarify the direction for
necessary and successful correction . Most "discipline" problems are solved at this stage.
If some progress is seen, this counseling step can be repeated to allow the employee full
opportunity to correct the problem.
It is not necessary to document the counseling session as it is considered an informal step in
progressive discipline. However, a brief statement confirming the subject matter discussed and
the agreed upon course of action to correct the problem can be noted in a short memo to the
employee.
Written warning
•
•
•
•
•
We initiate this step by repeating the process used in the counseling step, i.e., talking
before preparing any written action.
After this discussion, we prepare the written warning. Build in information, responses,
and commitments made in the discussion.
The written warning will have three parts:
o A statement about the past, reviewing the employee's history with respect to
the problem.
o A statement about the present, describing the who, what, when, etc. of the
current situation, including the employee's explanation.
o A statement of the future, describing our expectations and the consequences of
continued failure.
The warning is addressed to the employee.
This step may be repeated with stronger consequence statements. Examples range from
a statement that failure to correct this situation "may lead to further disciplinary action"
to a statement that "this is a final warning and failure to correct the problem will lead to
discharge."
Termination
•
•
•
•
•
This is the last step of GDKN's progressive disci pline system and is used when earlier
steps have not produced the needed re sults.
A discussion with the employee must occur before a final determination is reached. We
inform the employee about the nature of the problem. See sequence described under
co un seling.
The employee must be given an opportunity to explain his or her action and to provide
information.
If the employee takes this opportunity, we must investigate where appropriate an d give
consideration to the information provided .
A written notice of termination is prepared after the discussion and considerat ion of all
available information.

i JUST CA USE SE LF AUD IT
GDKN's personnel policies provide that employees will only be disciplined for just cause. Establishing just
cause means; having legitimate reason to invoke formal discipline. Disciplinary actions are frequently
overturned completely or reduced to a lesser level if even one of these elements does not
exist. However, there are occasional situations in which such serious issues arise that termination is
merited.
A self-audit to determine if just cause exists
We adopt the method of answering yes or no to each question on the audit. A "yes" response to all
seven questions indicates that just cause for discipline does likely exist, however just cause may
occasionally exist even if fewer t han all seve n are answered in the affirmative.
1. Adequate warning
Did the employee know or should the employee have known that the behavior could
result in disciplinary action?
2. Reasonable, related rules
Was the rule or order reasonable, safe, and related to GDKN's needs?
3. Fair investigation
Did we conduct a thorough investigation of the facts and circumstances--including the
em ployee's explanation and/or evidence--prior to administering discipline? Was the
investigation conducted in a timely, fair and objective manner?
4. Substantial proof
Is there substantial proof for our case?
5. Equitable treatment and past practice
Have the rules, orders, and penalties been consistently applied to this and other
employees in the past?
6. Appropriateness of discipline
Was the discipline related to the seriousness of the offense, to the employee's record,
and to the employee's level of responsibility within GDKN?
7. Meeting with the employee
Was the employee provided an opportunity to be heard, to present evidence, give
statements, etc.? In cases of termination or other loss of pay situations, this opportunity
is required prior to taking action.

EMPLOYEE TRAINING PROGRAMS
As a potential client most firms will tell you what they can do for you. How do we actually do it
is the unique insight into our operations.
At GDKN we provide a climate where employees are continually developing their skills and are
committed to meeting, and exceeding client expectations. We invest a significant portion of
our gross income on training our employees to continually improve efficiency and productivity
while maintaining the professionalism required for conducting business in a competitive
marketplace. This enables the employees to stay abreast with the latest technologies and new
developments.
In order to ensure that our employees are equipped to meet the challenges of the changing
times GDKN has instituted an R&D team of excellence that is constantly researching to find
effective and efficient ways to perform day to day tasks. This team then makes
recommendations that are reviewed by our senior management team. Once approved, our
Training Development Analysts develop WBTs and other training material to prepare our
teams to use the new methods while our IT team prepares to deploy the same into our
production environment.
We provide below screenshots of such a WBT for our proprietary RCRMS. New versions of this
WBT are available every 3-4 months. As a result of our continuous training programs GDKN has
been able to continually improve its processes and enhance the delivery to our clients.
Moreover, this keeps our staff motivated thus allowing us to maintain a low attrition rate.
