Consultant of the Year - Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How will the client testimonial will be handled and will it be confidential? Also, is it for MCA review only or will it be printed in the Sunday Times?   MCA will use the client details you provide in order to take up a client reference if necessary.  This contact information will be kept confidential.  If you use the name of the client within the main part of the entry, please note down clearly on the entry if you wish us to keep it confidential.  We will then check with you or the client in question if The Sunday Times would like to use the name.

Q: Can I see winning case studies from 2007? Unfortunately not. The MCA promotes a fair chance to all entrants, so examining previous winning studies may give some entrants a greater chance of winning over others. In addition we would need the express permission from the winners in 2007 as the content of their submission was not approved for promotion into public domain.   Q: I missed the Sunday Times supplement last year - what was the content about? If you missed the supplement and would like to receive a paper copy, please email a request to stephanie.mitchell@mca.org.uk   Q: Is it just UK based consultants who we can nominate or can we put forward European based consultants who also support our UK and European based projects? The MCA does not stipulate in the conditions of entry that nominated consultants have to be UK based – just that your firm should have at least ten consultants in the UK and have operated in the UK for at least 3 years.    Q: I want to be invoiced The MCA will accept cheques and BACS payment with your entry form. However, if you wish to be invoiced, please provide a purchase order number.   Q: How much do I need to pay? Entry fees are £150 + VAT per nomination for MCA members and £250 + VAT per nomination for non-members. Please check the table below:
