Where a Director or Partner elects to personally undertake technical execution or casework for operational efficiency, time is guided at this lower task rate rather than the Principal Advisory rate.

Clients supplying properly ordered, compliant digital files via our Client Vault minimise administrative billing. Where a Director or Senior Consultant elects to perform administrative or normalisation tasks directly, time is guided at this support rate.
