As required by Trinity Consultants’ Quality Management System, which is ISO 9001:2015-certified in the Dallas, TX headquarters office, we recently completed our annual client satisfaction survey. We received responses from more than 600 clients. The overall average score across all business units and service parameters was 4.65 on a 5-point scale with a high score of 4.84 in the area of technical expertise. This is a slight increase over the 2022 score of 4.79 for this question.

The Methodology

An email invitation from either Trinity’s Director of Business Systems or specific business unit leader was sent to more than 2,500 client contacts whom Trinity had supported during the previous 12 months.

Respondents rated their satisfaction across five areas of service and an additional question measured how likely the client would be to refer Trinity to a friend or colleague, on a scale of 1-10. This question is used to determine the company’s “Net Promoter Score (NPS)”. One open-ended question asked respondents to provide any comments that they might want to share on client service and/or areas for improvement. Responses were anonymous unless a respondent chose to self-identify.

Response Summary

The overall rating of 4.65 on a 5-point scale is comprised from ratings for the individual service questions as follows:

  1. Technical/regulatory knowledge and expertise provided……………..4.84
  2. Client service……………………4.62
  3. Quality of work products……………………..4.73
  4. Project management………………………4.53
  5. Overall value provided relative to cost………………4.51

Trinity’s NPS, which is a metric commonly used by businesses to measure customer loyalty, was 73.2 compared to a median of 50 for professional service firms. This puts Trinity in the top quartile. Several Trinity business units and offices scored a perfect 100, indicating that all respondents provided a response of 9 or 10.

Many respondents shared comments about their Trinity project team, including the following:
