About

The right question first

Romney Collins was established to support organisations facing decisions with lasting implications. Independent advice becomes most valuable when uncertainty is high or when significant commitments depend upon assumptions that deserve independent assessment.

The work follows the assignment

Research is directed towards issues that influence the outcome

Analysis remains connected to practical considerations, allowing recommendations to reflect the circumstances in which decisions will be made.

The outcome is advice that provides a well-founded basis for action.

Guiding principles

Four commitments that shape every assignment

Independence matters

Recommendations are grounded in the evidence gathered throughout the engagement. Findings are presented with objectivity, allowing conclusions to reflect the issues under consideration.

Context informs every assignment

Every decision is influenced by its commercial environment. Market conditions, organisational priorities and the circumstances surrounding implementation provide the context in which recommendations are developed.

Conviction should be earned

Careful examination strengthens confidence in consequential decisions. Well-founded judgement provides the basis for meaningful commitment.

Advice should remain useful

Recommendations are developed with implementation in mind. Their value lies in supporting practical decisions throughout the life of an engagement and beyond.


Forming a view

Advice carries greater value when it is developed without the pressure to support a predetermined outcome or justify an existing course of action

That independence allows assumptions to be challenged openly and alternative conclusions to be explored where the evidence supports them.

A considered perspective
Beyond the engagement

Each engagement contributes to the next

As organisations evolve, earlier work provides context that informs future engagements.

Every engagement begins with a question that requires careful examination. A brief outline of the issue is enough to begin the conversation.
