About

The UK Consulting industry relies on the resources and expertise of small consultancy firms that help their clients improve their organisations, meet the requirements of international standards and achieve certification.

Consultants play a crucial role in maintaining the impartiality and credibility of certification schemes and many certification bodies recognise this through an associate consultant programme of some sort. However, these programmes often focus on the certification body’s agenda.

UKConsulting has been established to drive improvement in the industry and represent the interests of small consultancy firms. 

Through a commitment to ethical conduct, we intend to collaborate to deliver a number of industry initiatives.
