We believe that this quality assurance\u00a0 is reassuring to clients and demonstrates best practice in the historic environment\u2019.<\/p>\n

IHBC Director Se\u00e1n O\u2019Reilly said:\u00a0\u2018Quality assurance for HESPR listing is strictly controlled through the employment a Full IHBC member \u2013 the \u2018Designated Service Adviser\u2019 (DSA) \u2013 in a strategic role \u2013 ideally, but not necessarily, identified in their job description – that allows that specialist to take professional responsibility for the company\u2019s conservation standards in the services offered to clients.\u2019<\/p>\n
