Before you instruct.
Do you work with donor-financed programmes?+
Extensively. We are pre-qualified with the World Bank, African Development Bank, DFCD and multiple bilateral agencies, and comply with their procurement and safeguards frameworks.
How do you handle politically sensitive land?+
Every mandate carries a formal safeguards and grievance framework. We stress-test our approach with community representatives, civil society and opposition stakeholders before deployment.
Who owns the data and the systems at the end?+
The client, always. Every deployment is scoped for full sovereign ownership of data, code, licences and institutional capability. We do not lock clients into proprietary long-tail dependencies.
