I am therefore delighted to report that your thorough investigation, comprehensive report and recommendations have led to an immediate cost reduction of almost 30%. ………Thank-you for the professional manner in which the audit was carried out and the ongoing interaction which allowed us to introduce significant changes on a methodical basis.” Extracts from a letter of reference by owner John Wiltshire of Harbour View Coffee Shop and Restaurant. 10 May 2013.
