Our philosophy
Six commitments that hold across every practice area.
Evidence before advice
We would rather establish a baseline than assert a conclusion. Where the data does not exist, we go and collect it.
Specialists, not generalists
Every engagement is staffed from the team that owns the capability. Nobody is asked to work outside their discipline.
Scope written down
Deliverables, milestones and pricing bands are stated before work begins.
Africa based, and it shows
Local context is not a section in our reports. It is why the fieldwork is faster and the findings hold up.
Warm to work with
Rigour on the page does not require coldness in the room. Clients and participants get the same courtesy.
Built to be handed over
Methodology is documented and transferable, so your team can run the second study without us.
How institutions work with us
Five routes, each beginning with a scoping conversation.
Start a conversation- 01
Project engagements
A single defined piece of work with a fixed scope, timeline and fee. Most first engagements start here.
- 02
Framework agreements
A standing agreement with agreed rates and terms, against which work is called off as it arises.
- 03
Capacity building partnerships
A phased programme that transfers capability to your team: design, training, systems and review.
- 04
Sponsorship and event partnership
Tiered packages across our flagship convenings and series, with delegate access and post event reporting.
- 05
Advisory retainers
Continuing access to our research and human capital specialists on a monthly basis.
