Guidance by trigger

The triggering event determines the order of the analysis.

A questionnaire, an audit, market entry or the maintenance of several engagements each call for distinct decisions and levels of evidence.

International engagements

Contract, payment, insurance, travel and partner responsibilities are validated before any engagement.

Prepare execution across several countries

An international engagement combines a contract, remote access, sometimes travel, and responsibilities that must remain consistent from one location to another.

An engagement spanning several countries only becomes firm once the contracting entities, payment, insurance, access, travel and any local responsibilities have been verified.

No premature mobilisation

Bookings, invitations, access and partners are only committed once agreement is reached on the contractual and operational conditions.

Commitment chain

The conditions for carrying out the work are established before any international mobilisation.
