Shortlisted for two SME National awards

We’re proud to announce that Plan A Consultants has been shortlisted for two SME National Business awards.

We have reached the finals of both the Business of the Year under 50 Employees award, and the London Business of the Year award.

The awards are for businesses that show “outstanding initiative, boldness and imagination, as well as sound management practices”. Finalists have demonstrated sustainable growth and commercial success that is exceptional for the size of the business.

In our entry, we explained how Plan A’s impressive growth is based on a high rate of repeat business, as well as the length of time so many of our clients have worked with us. We mentioned our ‘stepping up’ career development programme and investment in staff training. We also described our 1,100% growth since we were founded in late 2105.

We achieved 21% growth in 2021 despite the pandemic, and are on course to double our turnover again in 2022.

“We are delighted to be shortlisted for both these awards,” said Plan A Associate Director Lucy Freeston. “They show that we’re among the leading small consultancies in the UK, in terms of sustainable growth and customer retention. And they help get the word out about design management as a key part of some of the world’s most important architecture projects.”

The full list of finalists is on the SME National Business Awards website. The award winners will be announced at a ceremony on 2 December at Wembley Stadium.
