DISRUPTION

Everyone claims to be “disruptive” but at MCA, we do things differently. If they’re all “disrupting”, then we’ll disrupt the disruption. We help our clients take advantage of all opportunities, doing things they’d never thought possible. We show them how to think and act more creatively, to embrace change and enjoy challenges. We build trust through recognising our clients’ needs and meeting them. That’s how we get results our clients expect.

INNOVATION

“Good enough” is never good enough for us. We believe our clients can always do better – creatively, operationally and financially – and it’s our constant innovation that empowers them. Whether we’re finding high-quality, low-cost shooting locations, developing new technology, establishing more efficient production models or building our executive production offering, we present a unique combination of creative thought and commercial thinking.

TRANSPARENCY

We are transparent by design. It’s part of our DNA to provide full spend and activity, regardless of size, location or complexity of the project. We provide full details of all activity and expenditure, whatever the size or complexity of the project. Our Control Room platform can track, identify and optimise every last cent of any budget. We’re never afraid to ask awkward questions because those questions lead to answers, and those answers lead to results.

    Global Director Marketing Operations & Capabilities at Reckitt

  • “MCA collaborated with us in a major ad production re- engineering project for top five food company - Mondelez. They were an highly effective partner; bringing invaluable specialist insight, across spend areas and borders. Over several months, we collectively delivered a breakthrough solution for the client. We found them to be highly professional, strategically sophisticated, and a pleasure to work with”

    Rajesh Subramanian
    Director, AT Kearney Supply Management

  • “MCA was my partner in consulting for 4 years. They are the smartest, most innovative and genuinely likable people to work with. They found new ways to benchmark, cost-manage and source outstanding talent, globally. For two years we worked collaboratively to implement the ground-breaking Control Room 'Invest' platform. It captures every dollar spent on all our marketing collateral worldwide. With this remarkable transparency, we were able to make smarter decisions on production investments”
