BUSINESS IN AFRICA
Endsight Consulting is the “go-to” firm for firm doing business in African markets. Not only do we know where to go (and not to go), we know how to navigate the maze, quickly ditch dead-end plays, and get you moving through the deal flow. Whether it is approvals, negotiations, sourcing the financing, feasibility, financial models, etc., we will speed your process and reduce your costs so you can get down to business.
PROPOSAL MANAGEMENT
Winning proposals have great solutions. Seventy percent of the work for a winning proposal occurs during capture; writing the proposal should be the easy part. Winning is only complicated when you start late and haven’t done your homework before the pen hits the paper.
Endsight has developed winning proposals for dozens of US government (DoD, State, USAID, MCC) and international contracts. We help our clients develop innovative solutions and effectively communicate them in winning proposals. We have expert capture managers, proposal managers, technical writers, graphic artists, and color team reviewers to ensure your proposal makes the competition irrelevant.
GOVERNMENT ADVISORY
Endsight advises African presidencies on economic competitiveness as well as private clients for navigating the halls of the US Government.
COUNTRY PERFORMANCE INDEX
Every African leader proclaims that their country is “open for business!” Well, kind of. While Africa is a great place to make money, it can be a tough place to work. We have the data to know what’s up.
BUSINESS IN AFRICA
So you want to do business in Africa? Come on in, the water is fine – you just have to know where to swim.
PROPOSAL MANAGEMENT
Oh the joy of winning a contract!
Oh the pain of writing a proposal. Let Endsight jump into the breach and help you through capture and proposal – whether you want us to take it soup-to-nuts or just spot duty. We know how to win.

A Soft Spot for Africa
Africa is a hard place to do business, but it sure is a great place to make money. Africa should be on your radar, and Endsight can navigate you through the challenges.
Advising Governments
African Governments: stop chasing money. Rather, create the conditions where the money comes to you. Endsight’s proven methodology creates the roadmap for African economies to be more attractive to private business, investors, IFIs, and donors.
Winning Proposals
Winning a contract requires a killer proposal, and a killer proposal doesn’t write itself. When you need to win, start early and call Endsight. We’ll nail your bid.
Project Development
Everyone has a project in Africa only to vaporize when you think you have a deal. Stop chasing ghosts. Endsight evaluates projects with the hard questions up front, sources the financing, navigates the ministries, and closes the deals.
OUR PROJECTS
Our clients win. We help African presidents accelerate their country’s development to be recognized as the top reformer in the world and win a half-billion-dollar grant for infrastructure. Our commercial clients win big contracts, such as a major water treatment plant. We arrange international financing, including from export credit agencies.
When Cote d’Ivoire emerged from conflict in 2012, the country and economy was in a difficult place. Becoming a preferred destination for investment was hard to imagine – but the President had a vision and Endsight provided a roadmap. An MCC Compact was the charge. When we started, the country passed just 5 of the 20 MCC indicators. Our roadmap helped the government pass 14 indicators, received a $525 million MCC grant, and be named by the Mo Ibrahim Index as the fastest reformer in the world. Building on the success of the MCC Compact, Endsight is now supporting the presidency with a similar methodology to attract private business and investment.
Yaoundé Cameroon had a failing clean water supply. It needed a game-changer. Our US engineering client had a solution and General Electric had the technology. Endsight initiated the development of a $60 million water treatment plant and arranged the financing from the US Export-Import Bank. Game changed.
