What Consultancy Work Looks Like

Consultancy engagements are structured assignments with a defined scope, a timeline and a deliverable. We come in, examine how the organization actually operates — as opposed to how the policy manual says it operates — and give you a plan that can be implemented by the people you already have.

The gap between the documented process and the real one is where most compliance risk lives. Finding it requires being in the building and asking uncomfortable questions.

Our Consultancy Services

Consultancy work means access to information organizations do not share lightly — personnel files, board papers, incident records, contracts.

Every assignment runs under a written confidentiality agreement signed before fieldwork begins. Where the work involves personal data, we act as a processor on your written instruction, and the terms of that processing are set out in the engagement letter.

Governance Review

An examination of board and committee structures, terms of reference, delegation of authority and reporting lines. We look at whether the governance framework on paper matches the decisions actually being taken, and where accountability has become unclear.

Data Protection Readiness

Botswana's Data Protection Act No. 18 of 2024 came into force on 29 October 2024, replacing the 2018 Act. Most organizations in Botswana have not yet worked through what it requires of them. We audit what personal data you hold, why you hold it, who you share it with, and what you need to change — and we help you build the records to prove it.

Policy Framework Development

Drafting or rebuilding the policies that govern how your organization operates — written so that the people bound by them can read them, and structured so they can be maintained rather than replaced.

Compliance Audit

A mapping of the legal and regulatory obligations that apply to your organization, tested against what you are currently doing. The output is a register of obligations, an honest assessment of where you stand on each, and a prioritised remediation plan.

Employment Relations Diagnostic

A review of contracts, disciplinary procedures, grievance handling and the patterns in your disputes. Where the same issue keeps arriving at the same stage, there is usually a structural cause upstream.

Regulatory Audits and Risk Assessment

An independent assessment before a regulator conducts one for you. We look at the areas most likely to attract scrutiny in your sector and tell you what would be found.

How An Assignment Runs

1. Scoping

We agree what is in scope, what is out, what we will need access to, and what you will receive. Written and signed before work starts.

2. Fieldwork

Document review, interviews with the people doing the work, and observation where relevant.

3. Findings

What we found, in order of risk, with the evidence for each.

4. Recommendations

A prioritised plan — what to fix first, what can wait, what is not worth fixing.

5. Handover

A working session with the people who have to implement it, because a report nobody understands changes nothing.
