What our clients say

Empiric Partners have been invaluable in providing our Council with clear, jargon-free, advice in choosing suppliers for a significant and complex IT upgrade. Their excellent devising of a tender and scrutinising the submissions is something that we could have not contemplated doing on our own and I would warmly commend them to any SME or smaller council who lack the knowledge and resources to undertake such a task.

“Hello Tony and Mike, I wanted to thank you so much for the team training session yesterday, really inspiring and fun. So, feedback from the team is very positive. Kate said she felt inspired and it appealed to her passion for strategy! They’re already getting the quote log started and will be in touch with that too. The main message is talk to authors – it really does make a difference, says Kate!- and streamline the chasing up of quotes. But thank you very much and it was lovely to see you both”

“I want to thank you both for your help, support, time, and efforts on this fellowship application. I have really learned a lot and feel a bit more confident about future funding applications. Also, thanks a lot for the training sessions, it is timely for me and I can relate to most of the learnings. This will help me for a long time.

“ We reached the stage in our company’s growth where we needed to appoint a new IT supplier, but lacked the time to research the market and find the right solution. Empiric Partners assessed our needs and took on the task of finding suitable companies. They carried out a market review of several potential suppliers, carefully evaluating them to ensure they were capable of meeting our requirements. They then recommended two very competent companies to us, supporting us as we made the final decision.

We would never have found the time to carry out this due diligence and working with Empiric Partners meant that they successfully took on this task whilst we continued to grow our business. We are very pleased with the results and would have no hesitation in recommending their services to other growing companies. ”

“Thought I would let you know that the assessor was very complimentary about our start-up loan submission, calling it both  “a joy to read” and a “Goldilocks Proposal” (which apparently means it is near perfect!). She is very confident that all will go well and should that be the case, we should have the funds in place within 3-5 days. I will keep you updated and thank you for everything you have done for us.”

“We are delighted with the work Peter has done for us; he is efficient and easy to work with. As a result, he made it easier and quicker for us to attain Cyber Essentials Plus certification. We also used Peter to prepare our company for GDPR compliance; and have no hesitation in recommending him to any business which needs support with cyber security or wishes to become Cyber Essentials Certified.”

“Empiric Partners helped us raise start-up funding at a critical time in our business growth cycle and remain engaged to help us succeed.  As a direct result of their help we have been able to secure orders which are taking the company to the next level”

“With an expanding business to handle, I knew that it would benefit from a GDPR compliance review but I was too busy undertake it myself.

He had sufficient information from me to create all the required compliance documents for the business and made a number of recommendations for changes to my business processes.

Peter is familiar with small businesses and I consider that his GDPR and Cyber Security support services, together with his commercial approach would add significant value to business owners”

“Tangent Link hired Peter Elliot of Empiric Partners to assist with the development and implementation of our GDPR and Information Security policies.  Peter was very professional and efficient in his approach and broke down the tasks to be carried out into manageable chunks.  He made what we thought was a complex project seem easy due to his knowledge and expertise.  We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to other companies requiring similar services.”
