Positive Feedback
Consult Australia was delighted to receive the following
feedback from our members after they used the PI Pathway:
Heggies Pty
Ltd
Heggies' range of environmental engineering and scientific
services has broadened considerably over the past several years. As we
continue to grow, new services are being introduced, new offices open and other
consulting practices are being acquired. Our overseas work on significant
international projects has also increase markedly.
As a consequence, greater focus on
managing the technical and commercial risks of our multi-disciplinary service
delivery was required. Significant changes to our Professional Indemnity
(PI) Insurance cover became necessary. We realised that professional risk
management advice well beyond that provided by a normal PI broker was required –
we needed an insurance advisory service with considerable consulting industry
experience.
Heggies selected a broker
associated with the Consult Australia PI Pathway, as the services provided
seemed an ideal match. The broker was able to ensure continuity of cover,
broadening the scope of cover and negotiating a reduced premium. Their
contract review service and ongoing staff risk management training have proven
invaluable to our business, enhancing the professional standard of our client
contractual relations and improving the quality of our service delivery.
DJ Hall, Consulting Civil
and Structural Engineers
Thank you for your work regarding
the Professional Indemnity Insurance Pathway. I received several good quotes and
as a result my PI insurance premium reduced from $20,000.00 to $5700.00.
How do you use the pathway?
