Business philosophy

Many consultancy companies come and go - even some of the larger ones.  Oxford Holt was formed in 1984 with a set of basic values and principles that have stood the test of time.

Our core philosophy is to provide our customers with the opportunity to improve the effectiveness and productivity of their operations in a practical and realistic manner. 

We concentrate on what is appropriate to their businesses.  Not necessarily the latest fad or fashion, but workable solutions that are achievable and sustainable.  Solutions that will add value to their company in the form of higher profits and other tangible benefits.

 

The Principal Consultant is Jeff Holt.  He normally plays some part in each assignment and project manages most of them.  This means that we are able to provide the type of personal service that is hard to find today.  We are also much less prone to the higher overheads and higher fee rates that characterise some of our larger competitors.

A high proportion of our assignments have developed by ensuring client satisfaction, leading to repeat business and referrals.  Therefore, once the relationship with a client is formed, it is regarded as a long-term commitment.

Track record

We are extremely proud of our track record of successful assignments extending back over twenty five years.  During this period, we have completed a multitude of diverse and challenging projects that have delivered real value to clients throughout the length and breadth of the U.K. 

In addition to readily supplying references, we are happy for prospective clients to speak to any of our past clients regarding the quality of service provided.
