We’ve invested a huge amount of time in developing the business recently, and we’re a better company for it. Our efforts have been rewarded and we’re proud to announce that we are now officially Pre Qualification Questionnaire Ready, as approved by the Design Business Association; the only design business in Wales that is!

Our PQQ status means that we are now in a position to offer prospective clients all the information they could possibly need to aid the selection of their perfect design partner.

Getting here has been a real journey, involving the processing of in-depth company data - HR records, financial information, and the writing of numerous policy documents outlining everything from our environmental policy to our approach to data protection. The thirteen documents that we’ve completed (phew) are a formalisation of all the things we’ve been harping on about for years; they paint a picture of how we do things, and how we differ from other design businesses. We’re a great company: the proof is in the policies!

The DBA promotes excellence in the design industry, and their standardisation of the traditionally overcomplicated and resource-intensive tendering process is a huge leap forward that will be of great benefit to clients.

When seeking a design agency to meet a set of criteria, businesses tend to ask a broad range of questions to gather the information on which to base their selection. The DBA has simplified this process by outlining a list of information requirements for members. This will enable clients to find everything they need online (via the DBA’s directory), rather than chasing around a list of unvetted agencies for the information.
