Relationship with Clients

Details are often worked out individually but the policy is that all results and inventions are owned by clients, and covered by a non-disclosure Agreement. Where appropriate public representation is possible.

Work varies from casual assignments (e.g. a short investigation of competitor activity) to a study with fixed objectives agreed through a written proposal (e.g. an assessment of the state of the art in a particular field).

Compton Consultants works on a retainer basis with selected clients. Fees are negotiable, depending on the nature of the assignment.
