Complaints Policy
Introduction
Our aim is to offer the highest possible standard of service to our clients and customers on every occasion, and, whilst we strive to achieve this, we recognise that problems can still arise, and mistakes may be made and that you may wish to make a complaint about our services.
Every year we deliver many successful projects to clients, however, every so often a client or a customer may not be completely satisfied with the level of service or quality they have received.
In these cases we have this complaints procedure in place to make it easy for you to raise an issue and make us aware of your dissatisfaction.
If the delivery team aren’t able to deal with it directly with you, we have a formal process enabling the complaint to be escalated.
We take all complaints seriously and want to be able to have the opportunity to learn from them. Taking the time to tell us can help us to review and improve our service to you.
We will treat your complaint confidentially and swiftly.
If you wish to complain
If you decide to make a formal complaint, we encourage you to speak to us in the first instance. This allows us the opportunity to work with you to resolve the matter. We are committed to addressing all complaints as quickly as possible, ensuring your concerns are heard and acted upon promptly.
