"Strain Engineering & Co Ltd have gone from strength to strength in recent years and to be able to manage this growth effectively we engaged the services of BD Consultancy (Brigid Duggan). Brigid came into our business and assessed staffing levels and workloads and restructured systems and processes to cope with company growth more efficiently.
Brigid has a good understanding of the business and has kept us on the right track to maintain the steady growth and she was instrumental in securing us funding through the Rural Development Business Investment Scheme to purchase new capital equipment that will make us more self-sufficient and increase our production output capabilities.
We find Brigid to be encouraging, proactive, motivating and that her methods of work are very precise, she has a very good eye for detail. BD Consultancy customer service is exceptional and would be a benefit to any business. Strain Engineering has a very good working relationship with BD Consultancy and long may it last, we could not recommend Brigid highly enough."

"Brigid was first introduced to KA Toning through the Ifactory business mentorship programme. During this time, I had a new product idea for the beauty industry. Brigid is highly skilled and knowledgeable in all areas of research and development and securing funding for new product inventions. I worked with Brigid to bring my idea from concept to prototype and she also guided me through a Kickstarter programme.
​
Brigid is uniquely experienced at how to secure available funding for your business. Brigid helped me complete all my funding applications and they were all granted.
​
Throughout the time I have known Brigid she has been the backbone of my business, her on-the-ground experience makes her the best in her field at taking new products to market and her professional and friendly personality makes her easy to work with. I always introduce new businesses to Brigid because she can definitely help them in some area because of her overall expertise in business consultancy."

"I recently applied for an intensive 5 day Alchemy programme being supplied by the Causeway Coast & Glens Council, which provided one on one mentoring in business management and development. I was delighted to meet Brigid Duggan who was to be my mentor. Brigid has a lovely warm personality and her confidence in her role immediately made me feel that I had made a very good decision in applying for this course, I knew immediately that Brigid would be the right person to help me progress.
​
Initially we had a very in depth conversation about my business from it's origin, through it's progress to the current day, I explained what we do and why we were doing it, where at, how often, when and who for. I outlined our current business strategy and our revenue from our beginning in 2016 to the present season in 2019.
​
I also provided Brigid with an insight into Tourism and it's different levels, the ones we service and more importantly where we want to be going forward. It was clear that although I had some very good ideas, I was not a very competent businessman.
​
Brigid sure had her work cut out and boy did she give this task everything she had. During our next five sessions, she explained the importance of structuring my business, introducing efficient rotas so that Guides were spending more time guiding than waiting between tours. She provided spreadsheets to work with our cash flow etc. and by the end of the course a very thorough in depth analysis of our business and a defined strategy for a way forward. I was delighted.
​
I have implemented everything I was told to by Brigid and already I can see a huge difference, more importantly moving forward I am more confident that i can take our business to where I want it to be.
​
Throughout this programme I must say Brigid and I have become friends; her professional ability is outstanding, her ability to unravel a mess and create a clear defined path is incredible. Working with a relatively young business with huge ambitions in a strange genre (Travel & Tourism) could not have been easy but I could see a structured approach that really delivered.
​
In closing I can honestly say I owe this programme and Brigid a huge debt, I am delighted to have made a new friend and I am able to highly recommend this initiative and Brigid to any willing participant.
​
You will see the rewards!"
