The result was   Redirect to Adrian Ellis, though I note that some concerns have been raised about that article as well. Obviously, those are best dealt with there. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 13:26, 2 August 2016 (UTC)

Non-notable company. Little assertion of notability in the article itself (once all the self-promotional fluff was removed) and no independent sources to be found online. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 14:15, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete: The offered references do not establish notability of the firm itself and my searches are finding nothing better.AllyD (talk) 13:56, 2 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment The article on Adrian Ellis, AEA's principal consultant, does appear to establish his personal notability, so perhaps a redirect is in order? WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 14:10, 2 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment - Notability is not inherited. Tushi  Talk To Me  10:44, 22 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Weak Redirect to Adrian Ellis, more or less per . I'm not seeing anything more than brief mentions, the best of which take the form "the company hired AEA Consulting to study it." I'm not seeing more than that, but I wouldn't have any objection to the article's recreation down the road if significant coverage can be found. &mdash;  Rhododendrites talk  \\ 13:18, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Agree with redirect to Adrian Ellis - references and other sources do not indicate noteworthiness for this company, nor does this Wikipedia article even though that is not taken into account. However, Adrian Ellis does appear to be a notable person, garnering signifigant coverage in the New York Times,, ; the Wall Street Journal ; and I think there is more. Ellis seems to be a prime example of what is considered a notable person on Wikipedia. I get tired of looking at questionable and unreliable sources while some claim these are sufficient. Mr. Ellis is a refreshing change. Steve Quinn (talk) 04:23, 24 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete The company is just a vehicle for Ellis to sell his services. Checking the company's two "offices" given on its website, 5 Hanna Lane, Unit 4 (from a quick google search) appears to be a 1-bed apartment, and the Somerset House office is shared space. AEA is nothing more than a brand name for Ellis. Not even worthy of a redirect. for (talk)  07:53, 29 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Redirect, as explained by Steve Quinn, and then the article on Ellis may need some attention also.  DGG ( talk ) 20:57, 31 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete -- sourcing does not suggest notability; the Adrian Ellis article appears to be on a non-notable subject itself. K.e.coffman (talk) 21:22, 31 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete and then Redirect as I believe this is best to ensure no restarting. SwisterTwister   talk  02:42, 1 August 2016 (UTC)
