In order to deliver on our aim of winning for our clients, Invicta develops an innovative and responsive approach specific to the needs of each client, based on the following key services:
Invicta undertakes detailed political research that is key to clients' needs
Political Research
Invicta undertakes detailed political research on the national and local government decision-makers who are key to the client's needs. We construct a comprehensive appraisal of the significant issues and actors in any political arena and assess the likely support base for any commercial project. Invicta may also build additional stakeholders and media into the appraisal to ensure a complete understanding of the environment. The purpose of these research reports is to give a client an indication of the likelihood of success of their proposals.
Political Engagement
Invicta develops and delivers political engagement strategies designed specifically for our clients and their current circumstances. The strategy will advise our clients when and to whom they should present their commercial proposals, enabling decision-makers to be better informed and understand how the proposals fit into their own wider preferences and policy objectives.
We keep communities informed of the our clients' proposals, and ensure the broader community voice is heard
Community Consultation
Invicta undertakes community consultation on behalf of our clients to inform the community about their proposals in an accurate and upfront way. The consultation allows the community to provide feedback to our clients and enables appropriate changes to be made to original proposals. Our approach ensures that the broader community voice is heard and that we identify and mobilise sections of the local community who are likely to support the proposals as they make their way through the planning and other regulatory systems.
Media Relations
An overarching element to our political lobbying and community consultation programmes is the effective use of the local and national print and broadcast media to provide favourable coverage on the proposals of our clients, and balances any negative press by ensuring that our clients get their side of the story over to the general public.
We protect and enhance our clients' corporate reputation
Corporate Reputation Management
In working with all of our clients, Invicta's primary aim is to protect and enhance their corporate reputation. Increasingly, the public view of a client can have a significant bearing on the chances of success of any individual project. Our focus is on ensuring that the viable and reasonable commercial practices of our clients are properly communicated and understood by key decision-makers, the public and the media.
