Business Principles
Our client's interests always come first
Our experience shows us that if we serve our clients well, our own success will follow.
Our assets are our people and our reputation
We are dedicated to complying fully with the letter and spirit of the laws, rules and ethical principles that govern us. Our continued success depends upon unswerving adherence to this standard.
We take great pride in the quality of our work
We have an uncompromising determination to achieve excellence in everything we undertake. Though we may be involved in a wide variety and heavy volume of activity, we would rather be considered the best by our clients than be the biggest in the industry.
We take a great amount of effort to identify and recruit the very best person for every job
Although our activities are measured in achievable results, we select our people one by one. In a service business, we know that without the best people, we cannot be the best firm.
We stress teamwork in everything we do
While individual creativity is always encouraged, we have found that team effort often produces the best results. We have no room for those who put their personal interests ahead of the interests of the company and its clients.
We consider our size an asset that we strive to preserve
We want to be big enough to undertake the largest project that any of our clients could contemplate, yet small enough to maintain the loyalty, the intimacy and the esprit de corps that we all treasure and that contributes greatly to our success.
We constantly strive to anticipate the rapidly changing needs of our clients
We know that our business and government clients will not stand still, and that complacency can lead to marketplace irrelevance.
We regularly receive confidential information as part of our normal client relationships
To breach confidence or to use confidential information improperly or carelessly would be unthinkable.
Our business is competitive and we are always seeking to expand our client relationships
However, we must always be fair competitors and must never denigrate other companies.
Integrity and honesty are at the heart of our business
We expect our people to maintain high ethical standards in everything they do, both in their work for the firm and in their personal lives.
