Overview
Finding the people, then building the capability to replace us.
Technical capability in procurement, logistics and finance is scarce in the markets we work in, and the usual response, hiring an adviser, creates a dependency rather than a capability.
We recruit for the specialist roles, design the structures and grading that make those roles retainable, and run the training, Training-of-Trainers and certification programmes that leave an institution able to operate its own processes without us.
Design the role before you search
Organisational design and grading decide whether a technical hire stays past the first year.
Curriculum, not workshops
Training is designed against the process the team has to run, with assessment attached to it.
Train the trainers
Institutional learning systems are what make a capability outlast the assignment that created it.

Standards
The rules this work is held to.
Technical defensibility means working to frameworks a third party already recognises. These are the ones that govern this practice.

- Employment law and HR compliance in our markets
Adjacent capability
Work in this practice most often runs into these.
Bring us the constraint, not just the request.
A tender that keeps attracting the wrong bidders, a pipeline nobody can see into, a finding that has to be answered. That is where this practice is most useful.
