Formerly known as Electoral Reform Services (ERS), we work with a wide range of private sector businesses to deliver good governance through secure and transparent elections and ballots.
From AGMs and shareholder elections to partnership ballots and employee consultations, we offer a range of services to help organisations engage employees and stakeholders, and maximise turnout.
We provide end-to-end project management, ensuring the integrity of the process and the result. We support traditional voting methods or digital solutions, or a blend of both.
We help hundreds of companies to meet the requirements of the UK Corporate Governance Code, the Companies Act 2006, their own standards and best practice.
We are also the most experienced independent organisation in the UK to offer adjudication and verification services on behalf of broadcasters, programme makers and award shows.
We offer end-to-end testing, series verification or one-off vote adjudication. Our reputation provides peace of mind, ensuring results that can be trusted by all.

Supporting our customers with remote and virtual solutions
Many of our customers have been required to hold their AGMs or other governance events over the last few months, facing unprecedented challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Together, we provided virtual meetings and video streaming solutions to enable their members to participate at these meetings and ensure good governance and democratic decision-making could continue.
