Rata Professional Services, a New Zealand-based consultancy, has been awarded the UK Prestige 2024 Sustainable Business Consultancy Award. The recognition, announced in late December 2024, highlights the company’s contributions to ethical and sustainable business practices.
Directors Sandra Pringle and Warren Pringle accepted the award, which acknowledges the firm’s efforts in promoting responsible business conduct. The judges commended Rata’s Ethical Business Alliance (REBA) Certification Programme, designed to assess and certify businesses and professionals in New Zealand, Australia, and beyond based on a structured ethical framework.
A statement from the judging panel noted that “REBA uniquely offers certification that independently evaluates businesses and professionals based on rigorous ethical criteria. Membership provides access to a network of ethical leaders and helps organizations foster integrity-driven workplaces. Certified businesses are positioned to attract talent and establish partnerships with like-minded organizations.”
The UK Prestige Awards, administered by Corporate Live Wire and LTG business platforms, have been recognizing businesses globally for 16 years. The selection process includes reviewing nominations and assessing organizations based on publicly available data, such as customer reviews, corporate values, and branding. Award winners are featured in publications distributed to over 100,000 global subscribers, including 30,000 readers across Oceania in both print and digital formats.
Rata Professional Services focuses on guiding organizations toward ethical and sustainable business practices. The company advocates for independent certification as a means of safeguarding brand reputation and fostering responsible business conduct.
The increasing global emphasis on transparency in supply chains underscores the relevance of initiatives like REBA. Ethical certification and independent evaluations are becoming critical tools for businesses looking to enhance employee engagement, innovation, and long-term sustainability.
