“I have been saying how amazing your QA is: [London LA] and [London LA] would really like to see if they can have a look at your documents and framework.

“I have recently got in touch with H, who has just started as the [major city council] AP Commissioner. When I started I met with you, and you kindly shared a lot of super helpful information with me. I thought I would introduce H to you via email, as she may wish to reach out and understand how you work on AP, and the QA processes that you have well established, a lot of which we now use in our county.”
