Solicitor's integrated management system (SiMS)
SiMS was conceived as a product designed with input from five Solicitors’
partnerships from 5 partners up to 150. Since laying down the design parameters,
SiMS has been consistently developed over a period of nearly 10 years. Each
year upwards of £400,000 has been invested in adding new facilities and in
keeping the system up to date.
SiMS is totally dedicated to providing facilities to assist the smooth running of a Solicitor’s back office. SiMS is not a Word Processing system or a Case Management system. These type of facilities are best left to experts in these fields. As such the development has not been diverted away from its original concept.
TMA specialise in Solicitors’ Practice Management software. TMA have one system to support and develop SiMS. TMA staff are totally dedicated to one system SiMS. TMA do not sell or support hardware, operating systems, software or services outside of the SiMS application.
