OUR WORK

Clients engage us to work in one or more of the four areas in which we have expertise: Communities, Economies, Skills, Enterprise.

Our clients ask us to undertake a wide range of assignments:

Evaluation

Impact studies
Feasibility studies
Market research
Forecasts & scenarios

Engagement

Community consultation
Business consultation

Action

Strategies
Delivery plans
Business plans
Implementation
Bid writing
Programme delivery
Programme management

Many of our projects combine several of these elements and as a result involve working through four connected phases…

Discovery

including project inception, review of the evidence base and review of the policy or business context

Expansion

In which we look at the issues from a range of perspectives, often involving new primary research and stakeholder engagement

Distillation

in which we identify the core issues and our key conclusions and often engage in modelling work

Completion

in which we report and present on what we have done and advise on next steps

We provide detailed project plans and project inception documents setting out these stages and their sub-stages, and we work closely with clients to ensure that projects remain on track and meet their objectives.

We also have an ISO 9001 quality system that provides objective external verification that we deliver on our promises.

We also work closely with partners who can deliver specific expertise in, for example: community safety, healthcare, architecture, the creative industries and macroeconomics.
