Accountability + Action
We own every outcome.We don’t just report issues — we solve them. Our systems, support, and leadership are built on follow-through and results.

Founder’s Insight

Why SME Workforce Management

“After over a decade working in staffing industry from frontline through to Executive Management, I recognised a pattern — incredible providers were being held back by poor systems, manual rostering, and constant last-minute chaos. I experienced it firsthand running a very successful care-focused staffing agency across the spectrum including Child Protection, NDIS and Mental Health facilities, and I knew there had to be a better way.”
“That’s why I built SME Workforce Management — to create a core solution that actually works. One that leverages AI, real-time support, and compliance automation — so providers can stop firefighting and start focusing on what really matters: delivering optimum care to their clientelle without the stresses of the operational functions that adds to burnout and business growth capping.”
— Simi Lavulavu, Founder (Principal Visionary)
