Current Focus

In a rapidly changing and unpredictable world, the ability to evolve is an important strategic capability. Throughout our history we have been agile, constantly developing and moving forward our products, services and alliances reacting to the needs of our clients and the marketplace. During these challenging economic times we are focusing on our extensive experience as an international provider of consultancy, education and training in all aspects of business process management and improvement. The heart of this is our expertise in management systems and quality improvement and we continue to be a leading provider of training (both on a public course and an in-company basis) and of associated consultancy services.

Effectiveness, Efficiency, Economy

Our current proposition is holistic as we know that to maximise the positive effect on the whole you have to address all of the related aspects in unison. We bring this proposition together as “Governance and Assurance”. Governance being the concern for responsibility and accountability and for directing and controlling the processes and functions of an organisation. Assurance being the activity of reviewing and understanding what is really going on to ensure that the organisation, its management and internal processes are performing effectively, efficiently and economically.

The aspects we are focusing on with are as follows:
  • Management Systems (Quality, Environmental and H&S)
  • Project Management.
  • Procurement and Contract Management.
  • Corporate Responsibility.
  • Business Continuity management.
  • Information Security.
  • Effective Leadership.
  • Management of Organisational Change.
