Clear and concise objectives that didn’t pre-determine the agenda and a process that was ‘unbelievably well-executed’!

The judges were impressed by the iterative process adopted – deftly handled. A thoughtful approach in terms of questioning the appropriateness of using traditional methodologies and seeking alternatives. Good use of specific evidence of mechanisms, rationale and themes of responses.

Good techniques applied to an uncommon problem. The overall approach shows innovation and sets a high bar.
