Our development ethic...
For many political and historic reasons South Africa has a large community of people from previously disadvantaged areas. Recognising this and being very conscious of the fact that there can be no compromise on client performance or quality, we endeavour to address these wrongs by developing the abilities and skills of others. The outcome of this strategy should ensure that such skills are more generally available ultimately resulting in economic growth opportunities for future generations.

We do this in the following ways:

  • We work in teams with our clients whenever possible. Our request to the client is for people from previously disadvantaged areas to serve on these joint project teams.

  • Some specialists in our network come from disadvantaged backgrounds and whenever possible we endeavour to use, and further develop, the abilities of such people.

  • In our engagement proposals we advise clients that all the materials developed and the knowledge created from the project become their property.

  • At every instance we transfer skills and knowledge to our clients and their staff.

Negotiations are underway with a black empowerment partner which, if successfully concluded would see us as a 26% black-owned business.
