Operations and compliance
Create a smooth-running operation that allows freedom to focus on the real business at hand
At Edified, we have an innate understanding of how complex it can be to adjust the established operations of an education institution. The complex and sometimes conflicting priorities of teaching, research, social objectives and the need to generate income means carefully weighted, nuanced strategy is essential for improving operational effectiveness and compliance.
With a solid operational framework, you can achieve more, more efficiently, while remaining compliant, without the need for frequent administrative overhauls. This becomes even more important to stay on top of as administrative and compliance pressures increase year by year.
With our help, new approaches and new technology can remove much of the burden, but implementing these does take time, effort and money. We have the experience to help you get on top of things and deliver the rewards that make the effort worthwhile.
And when it comes to auditing your activities for ESOS compliance, we can relieve much of the pressure on your people, delivering a clear plan for improvement – often far more quickly than if it’s done internally.
Our recommendations work. Unlike thick, text-heavy reports, which are hard to action, our reporting to you is wholly focused on making it easy for you to understand what you need to do and how to get there, in simple, practical, measurable terms. And we only recommend things that you can achieve.
We rate each aspect of your operation, with detailed proof to support our findings, and we then provide a comprehensive roadmap with proposed timings to help you achieve your goals.
We understand the magnitude of the task when it comes to operational re-engineering, and we know where the pitfalls are and how to achieve world’s best practice.

The final report and write-up was the most useful I’ve received in 12 years of working with multiple consultancies.
These guys are best in class right now. Clear comms, frequent updates, cultural sensitivity. They’re the bee’s knees in education consultancy.
The Edified team are just a delight to work with: flexible, knowledgeable and deliver great outputs.
My third ESOS audit and the experience has been most agreeable. It’s been a pleasure working with Edified.
The Edified team is excellent to work with. They are knowledgeable, easily contactable, engaged, and receptive to questions and suggestions.
An audit or appraisal could be a great first step. Or you could join a benchmarking study to find out how your institution compares with others.
