Advisory services

Advisory support for decisions that need to work in practice.

SustainStrat brings together strategy, project delivery, policy, evidence, science and technology, sustainability and digital capability when an assignment crosses disciplines. We shape the scope around the problem, not around a fixed service package.

01 · Strategy, growth & institutional transformation

Turn strategy into clear choices and workable responsibilities.

For organisations that need to clarify direction, prioritise opportunities, redesign governance or close the gap between an approved strategy and execution.

02 · Programme, project & PMO advisory

Fix the causes of weak delivery, not just the schedule.

For programmes and projects facing weak governance, unreliable controls, procurement constraints, delivery risk or the need for stronger PMO capability.

03 · Policy, public sector & development advisory

Design policy around how it will actually be implemented.

For public institutions and development partners working on reform, regulatory questions, implementation systems or structured stakeholder engagement.

04 · Market intelligence, research & MERL

Build evidence around the decision that needs to be made.

For clients needing market intelligence, mixed-method research, evaluation, or monitoring, evaluation, research and learning (MERL) systems that support decisions rather than more reporting.

05 · Innovation, commercialisation & ecosystems

Build innovation models that can operate, attract partners and scale.

For innovation hubs, incubators, commercialisation programmes and entrepreneurship ecosystems where the operating model matters as much as the idea.

Ways to engage

Choose the level of support you need.

Work can begin small and expand only when the problem justifies it.

Executive diagnostic or advisory sprint

A focused senior review or time-bound engagement to test options, expose constraints and define what should happen next.

Defined consulting assignment or retained advisory

End-to-end delivery against agreed outputs, or continuing senior support for evolving programmes, portfolios and leadership decisions.
