QG Philosophy

How a consultant approaches the task of consulting is a key issue for clients.

At QG we are guided by the following principles:

• Client confidentiality and business ethics are our first priority.
  
  
• We provide high-level consulting: clients will never have your work performed by anonymous “juniors”.
  
  
• We provide excellent communications. Our reports will make sense to non-specialists, with full technical details as appendices (to enable full auditing of our work).
  
  
• We are guided by good science. We choose approaches on the basis of quantifiable testing, and we select methods and solutions according to the deposit. QG will never try to tell you one method works everywhere. We do not believe in “proprietary algorithms”. We work in an open manner, providing fully disclosed details of our methodologies. When you find a generic orebody, we’ll propose a generic solution.
  
  
• We work as a team within your group, and have the objective of “clicking into” company teams. ‘Isolated consulting’ is not the best use of your budget.
  
  
• We focus on skills transfer. At the end of every contact with QG you should feel more competent in managing your resource issues, not less.

• We operate at the combined “sweet-spot” where technical excellence, business acumen and intelligent comunication skills overlap. You will understand what we do, why, how and what it means for your business as a part of the successful completion of a QG consulting assignment.
