Technology and innovation are vital to improve productivity and profitability in all business sectors. Moreover, the pace of change is constantly accelerating with regard to culture, technologies, practices, governance, and management. As a result, our clients often ask us to deliver training programs to enhance their capacity. We have designed training programs covering a wide variety of topics, including:

- Environmental Monitoring and Compliance
- Bench-marking and Auditing techniques
Our project management methods rely on proven tools and techniques. We use a five-phase project management approach: Initiation, Diagnosis, Execution, Implementation and Closure. We introduce project charters to client initiatives when required. These documents outline the project scope and objectives, identify the main stakeholders, define roles and responsibilities, and outline the authority of the project manager. The charter serves as a reference of authority for project implementation. It is considered an industry best practice and includes:
- High-level risk management plan
- Communication plan
- High-level budget and spending authority
