ORION CONSULTING ASSOCIATES

The Team

­­Orion Consulting Associates are professionals with complementing skills in transport and infrastructure development and  maintenance in developing countries. The OCA group comprises consultants who work together either individually or as a team specifically formed for a project or programme support.  If and when required OCA also associates with independent consultants. All consultants we work with we have long-standing relations with and are people we are confident in to perform at the highest professional level; people that can make a difference. OCA makes a point of working with experts from developing countries.
