Planning
• Small electrical companies with an expanding electrical load lack the capacity to support planning and budgeting initiatives. We assist companies to create short and long term infrastructure expansion plans, purchase and implement modeling systems and train staff in the technical and economic analysis needed for future projects. We assist companies to overcome obstacles, such as electr
icity theft, pre- and post-paid metering, scheduled load shedding, aging infrastructure and skilled staff deficiencies. Engineering
• Experienced engineers who understand the problems facing small utilities and power companies in countries lacking a developed power sector are often unavailable. Our staff includes engineers capable of providing civil and electrical engineering services for small and mid-size power infrastructure facilities. These include transmission and distribution systems, control systems and small generating stations from 500 kW to 50 MW.
• Economic Analysis and Feasibility
It is difficult to find companies that understand the challenges and risks to successful investments in developing countries. We support investors by conducting market analyses of the power sector and put people on the ground to facilitate the investment and develop relationships with supporting companies and government agencies. We can identify the best technology options that can be supported by local staff and logistical infrastructure. We have experience with both ESCO and IPP models using many different generation technologies, including diesel, HFO, solar PV hybrids, and wind turbine generators. We focus on the opportunities for our client and work to mitigate the risk of doing business in developing markets. Economic
• Economic Value Chains
Value chains are complex. We identify and develop value chain components in the agriculture, logistics and energy sectors. We identify the weakest links, then provide training and facilitate investments to help the market function efficiently. This helps local communities retain the value of their labor and opens up new opportunities for growth. We have developed agriculture collection centers, established logistic and transport management services and facilitated exports in developing markets.
• Infrastructure Development
Sustainable infrastructure is the biggest obstacle to development. We have significant engineering and project management experience planning and developing infrastructure in post conflict environments and emerging economies. Our work is focused on developing road, aviation and other infrastructure, including light industry and government facilities. Reconstruction
• Capacity Building
Developing countries often lack the human capacity to support growth in their services. We help develop this capacity within organizations and will temporarily augment staff for short term initiatives.
• Public Works
Public works programs can be valuable social protection instruments. We provide personnel to advise and manage public works projects, including roads, water, agriculture, etc.
• Worldwide
Experience working in some of the most difficult countries in in Africa and Asia with government and non-governmental agencies. Technology Services
• Software Design
Traditional software development for large organizations is time consuming and expensive. We avoid the pitfalls of deep pocket information technology departments by employing rapid development software to build light-weight custom solutions that require little infrastructure overhead. Our software solutions can be built and deployed in a matter of weeks to manage core operational tasks with minimal training and support. We do this by focusing our software development on your workflow to produce user friendly software designs. More importantly our team is lead by people with actual experience as logistics managers instead of programmers who force abstract solutions on users.
• Multimedia, Photo and Video
Media production services for training and public relations. Media is essential to promote the success of your business.
