Please describe the nature of your business.

To ensure that you have received the appropriate questionnaire, you are asked to describe the nature of your business. The description should briefly state the main activities of your business unit.

The main activity of an enterprise engaged in consulting services is to provide client firms with expert advice and make recommendations such as the adoption of approaches and processes and the establishment of strategies. For the benefit of client firms, such a consulting enterprise can also undertake the work itself that arises from its own recommendations i.e., their actual implementation.

However, for this survey to be considered as a consulting services enterprise, the enterprise must generate the majority of its revenues from advice that it provides to client firms and not from the implementation of its own recommendations.
