A key component of this programme is a web based data evaluation tool, which will be completed by a London & Partners Account Manager through conversation with the SME client.

An early version of the tool is ready for testing prior to the May 2017 launch. 6. It is easy for the Account Managers to use and edit the questions and solutions sections, including the entire workflow and application of rules. 7.
