Step 1: Submit your requirements

Tell us your degree level, research stage, service required, deadline, and the main issue you need to resolve. Send only non-confidential information at the initial enquiry stage.

Step 2: Project assessment

We review the request, available material, specialist requirements, timeframe, and institutional instructions. If more information is needed, we will ask focused questions before preparing a quotation.

Step 3: Scope and quotation

You receive written confirmation of:

• the service and deliverables;

• the material required;

• the consultant or editor role;

• the timeframe and review rounds;

• the fee and payment terms;

• confidentiality and file-handling conditions;

• any relevant institutional restrictions.

Step 4: Service delivery

The service is completed according to the agreed scope. Delivery may include meetings, annotated documents, tracked changes, analytical outputs, templates, reports, or action lists.

Step 5: Completion

You review the work, raise scope-related queries within the stated period, and use the deliverables in the next stage of your research.
