This has and continues to be a well established sector for HW in which we have built a reputation for excellence. Our clients cover all of the main sectors, notably local government and police and all our staff have wider experience that incorporates central government, the health sector and education.

Our service is characterised by an uncompromising commitment to quality. Our skills mix ratio is richer than our competitors (pound for pound you receive more experienced and knowledgeable staff) and we place a premium on quality of the outputs that you receive.....we don’t just deliver work “by the numbers”. This we believe is a critical value for money consideration that all public sector organisations need to consider during this difficult economic climate.

Knowledge sharing – our service is characterised by open and transparent sharing of knowledge with our clients.

An unblemished track record of delivering audit engagements on time and to a high quality.

Our Approach

We take a big picture approach to delivering all assignments. It is important that we understand, as a minimum, the following in order that the advice and work we deliver is pertinent and of value:

• Organisational culture;
• Management style;
• Risk profile and risk attitude; and
• Organisational structure.

Clients

Given the depth and breadth of our work in the public sector our clients also benefit from the implicit benchmarking all of our reviews bring to the table, at no additional cost to them. This is one of many benefits that our approach generates, other benefits being:

• Knowledge sharing;
• Access to our senior staff and specialists to act as sounding boards;
• A complimentary post review service which would include for example presentation of our reports to management teams and members at no additional cost to you; and
• local government pension schemes
• Allowing junior members of in house staff to work alongside our team, thereby fostering strong partnership working and enhancing the skills of your staff.
