Default I need to match multiple columns before returning a value

I have a spreadsheet with multiple worksheets. I would like to return a date
from one worksheet based on the name of a company provided as search
criteria. I have been using a combination of INDEX and MATCH and it is
working fine except when there are multiple instances of the company name.
Then I need to look at first and last names of employees within the company
to distinguish which person I am in need of. Most often, I will have a
single occurence and this will not be a problem, but I would like to know a
correct way of handling my discrepancies as the results are not correct.
Thank you.
