We think that people should stick to the things they do best (novel idea, we know). We offer four things:
Public affairs
COVID-19. Brexit. Lockdowns. Three referenda. 12 budgets. Four Prime Ministers.
In the last decade, we have seen an unprecedented number of major political events that impact all of our lives, the places we live and the bottom lines of business.
Our team of policy experts, former civil servants and Special Advisers can work with you to make sure your voice is heard and you have ‘a seat at the table’.
Whether it is the creation of unique thought-leadership reports or representative polling (we are registered with the British Polling Council) we know how to get key decision-makers to sit up and listen.
Economics
Our team of former Government Economic Service and think tank economists undertake strategic economics consultancy work spanning public policy, impact assessments, economic development and funding bids, trade and investment, regeneration strategies and the creation of bespoke multi-component Indexes to provide unique insights for a sector, the UK or the world.
We have particular expertise in trade and investment, housing, economic growth, infrastructure, transport and net zero.
Given our team’s experience, where possible we use official rigorous approaches such as the Treasury Green Book, the DLUHC Appraisal Guide, the BEIS carbon policy appraisal and evaluation guide or the Department for Transport’s TAG.
We are on the Crown Commercial Services Research & Insights Framework and the Homes England Framework for economic, data and policy consultancy services.
Data
Today, more data than ever is available on subjects as diverse as criminal sentencing to household budgets and Progress 8 scores.
We use modern statistical and data techniques - including using AI and machine learning algorithms - to turn publicly available and company data into trends and insights so you can take better decisions and make a stronger case to decision-makers.
Policy
We have decades of experience on the frontline in Westminster. We have worked with a range of clients to develop practical policy solutions that resonate with key decision-makers and have the best chance of getting implemented.
We also have significant experience in conducting independent and authoritative reviews of policy using a range of analytical and statistical techniques to help policy-makers make better decisions.
