About

Innovative Minds.

Innovative Minds (IME Incorporated) serves businesses, professionals and communities across Texas and Arizona.

Our foundation is computer-based testing and fingerprinting. Those businesses built the operational discipline, customer-service standards, technology experience and multi-location infrastructure we have today.

Our history

A solutions provider since 2018.

Innovative Minds has been a solutions provider since 2018, built on more than twenty years of experience in computer-based testing, training, fingerprinting, and small business and technology consulting.

What began as testing and fingerprinting grew into ten locations across Texas and Arizona. Growth like that is not a marketing exercise. It means opening offices, hiring and training staff, meeting compliance requirements, running secure testing rooms, keeping equipment working, and answering to the organizations whose exams and submissions we handle. Every location has to run to the same standard, every day.

Along the way we solved the problems every growing business runs into — how to lead people well, how to keep service consistent across sites, and how to use technology so work moves faster instead of getting more complicated. Solving those problems for ourselves is what led naturally into leadership development and business technology.

We do not advise from the sidelines. Much of what we teach and build comes from operating our own businesses, managing our own teams, and learning what actually works.

Our culture

How we work.

We are entrepreneurial and practical. We build things, run them, and improve them.

People first

Strong organizations need strong systems and strong people. We invest in both, and we hold ourselves accountable for the result.

Technology should simplify

Technology should make work easier, not more complicated. If a system adds steps instead of removing them, it is the wrong system.

Automation frees people up

AI and automation should take the repetitive work, so people spend their time on judgement, relationships, leadership and creativity.

Service is the standard

Someone’s licence, job or start date often depends on the visit. We treat every appointment that way.

Always improving

Continuous improvement is not a slogan here. We change how we operate whenever we find a better way.

We do the work

We have made the hires, fixed the processes and implemented the technology ourselves. That experience is what we bring.

Where we’re going

An evolution, not four equal businesses.
