“In the past I have found Section 17A reviews cumbersome, difficult and time-consuming. I have also found them to be an expensive process. The Integral Group brought a fresh, robust approach to the review of our roading services. They completed the review and made recommendations in a very short period of time, which have been subsequently approved. This was a refreshing way of approaching these reviews and saved us a significant amount of time and money.  The Integral Group’s methodology and expertise was very valuable.”

Workshop Structure

These reviews are conducted via an in-house workshop.

The workshop normally takes about 4 hours.  We use your input to conduct a comprehensive analysis.

You turn up and make the decisions in the room and we take care of everything else, including writing up the report and providing you with recommendations.
