"Alasdair was consistently prompt, clear and courteous. Happy to speak on the phone and was always diligent with email responses to queries ... it was a pleasure to be working back and forth with Alasdair."

Feedback Alasdair received on a detailed report to a government department stated: “it’s clear how much thought has been given to how the questions are answered and drafted, further to the weighty substance of the responses.
