This year, we’ve shared how TCDI is creative, experienced, innovative, and full of problem-solvers. The truth is, we can only be these things because of the perspectives and experiences each of our people bring. When inclusion guides how we work, our ideas become more thoughtful, our teams stronger, and our partnerships more meaningful. By ensuring everyone has a voice, we will continue to create solutions that make a meaningful difference for our clients.
We asked team members from across the company what it means to be inclusive, and this is what they had to say:

Research & Development Team
I see inclusion as the active, daily practice of ensuring our team doesn’t just welcome different perspectives but fundamentally relies on them. We know that groundbreaking ideas aren’t exclusive to those with traditional engineering or science degrees. Our research and development teams are strengthened by brilliant individuals from diverse backgrounds who allow us to solve complex problems from a wider range of angles.
When everyone has a seat at the table, we naturally challenge each other’s assumptions. This is crucial, as it directly fuels innovation and leads to a superior, more thoughtfully crafted experience for our end users. For me, true inclusion at TCDI means consciously creating a space where these varied strengths are essential ingredients to our collective success.

Document Review Team
Since joining TCDI in 2018 as a Military Spouse Managed Review (MSMR) Document Reviewer, and now serving as a Data Mining Analyst, I’ve had the opportunity to experience firsthand how inclusion is part of our everyday culture. As a Filipina with a heavy medical background, a seasoned Navy wife, and previously a stay-at-home mom of three, I bring a blend of experiences shaped by both family and heritage.
At TCDI, those differences aren’t just acknowledged, they’re valued. Working with people from diverse perspectives has taught me that inclusion fuels collaboration, creativity, and mutual respect. It gives you a sense of belonging, a sense of being part of a team, and a sense of being part of the TCDI family.
Inclusion at TCDI means everyone has a voice, is part of a community, and is respected and given equal opportunities. It’s reflected in how we listen to one another, share ideas, and lift each other up. I’m proud to be part of TCDI, who not only celebrates our differences but recognizes that true improvement comes from embracing the unique backgrounds and stories we each carry.

Business Development Team
In my opinion, inclusion is a cornerstone of culture and culture is the most important value for any successful organisation. It fosters an environment where every individual feels valued, respected, and empowered to contribute their unique skills and perspectives. An inclusive culture also drives engagement and retention, as people are more likely to perform in a culture where they feel seen and supported.
From the outside in, clients increasingly seek to align and partner with companies that actively demonstrate their own values and purpose. It can mirror their own ethos and by prioritising inclusion, we demonstrate social responsibility and reinforce their reputation as a forward-thinking, ethical partner.
In summary, inclusion isn’t just about fairness, it’s a driver of excellence, resilience and sustainability in all strong organisations.

Finance Team
To me, an inclusive workplace is one where everyone feels respected and valued. It’s a place that allows you to be who you are without fear of judgement.
As part of the Finance team at TCDI, I work with many other departments across the company. Because TCDI creates an inclusive environment, I always feel valued and respected no matter who I’m working with. Managers within TCDI are always willing to offer a helping hand and guide you, giving you the opportunity to thrive and be the best you can.
I always feel that TCDI wants me to be successful and gives me opportunities to expand on my skills. TCDI is a company that truly values its employees and recognizes what each person can do to help the company succeed, all while allowing you to be your authentic self. This makes TCDI a diverse place to work.
