Political & Policy Analysis
Invicta works to analyse the impact of the developing policy landscape and political environment upon our clients reasonable commercial interests, through undertaking our own primary research.
With the policy baseline established, we are able to identify the current and upcoming policy opportunities and work with our client to strategically frame their messaging in a way that advances their priorities. Combined with the identified relevant decision makers and political stakeholders who can influence the policy direction, Invicta is then able to plan and deliver a comprehensive political engagement programme on behalf of our clients.
We have developed a particular expertise in providing an effective secretariat service for All Party Parliamentary Groups (APPGs) at the UK Parliament and Cross Party Groups (CPGs) at the Scottish and Welsh Parliaments. These groups can be highly influential in building trust and strengthening common interests and objectives between political decision-makers and industry, enhancing the profile of key industry policy objectives with ministers, building political momentum and helping to remove blockages to delivery. Their cross-party nature combined with our strong cross-party relationships, ensure valuable continuity for industry during times of political change.

At Invicta, we directly engage on our clients behalf in order to best advocate their business interests whether that be to those in Local Government, Scottish Government or UK Government and ensure that this is completed in a transparent and compliant way.
We have developed a particular expertise in providing the secretariat service for All Party Parliamentary Groups (APPGs), an approach that has proven to be highly influential in building trust and strengthening common interests and objectives between Government and industry stakeholders in key policy areas.

Community Engagement
Invicta Public Affairs recognises the importance of public engagement within the planning process. By identifying the wider public interest within our clients proposals and the wider expectations that come with engagement with the wider public, Invicta can effectively and positively communicate this message across the board. Invicta believes engagement across all levels is vital to our clients success.
Invicta engage in a compliant way and encourage our clients to go above and beyond the expected remit of public consultation within their proposals. Invicta continues to believe that early engagement prior to and during the planning process is key to our clients needs and business strategies which achieves the widest possible community acceptance for their proposals.
Media Engagement
Our clients proposals are likely to attract a wider form of public interest throughout the project timeline from media outlets. In order to manage their profile to ensure we build good relations with our target audience we must proactively build a positive dialogue with local media outlets through early communication.
This is a key and important way to support our clients community engagement work and helps us create a consistent message for their needs across all platforms.
