About us
Where we work
Development Management Consultants works across Pakistan, delivering engineering design, environmental assessment, construction supervision and development consultancy for federal and provincial government departments, public sector companies and utilities, development partners and multilateral lenders, private developers and contractors.
Engineering is local before it is anything else. The ground conditions, the seismic zone, the utility that has to approve the connection, the authority that adopts the road, the contractor who will actually build it — all of them change when you cross a provincial boundary. DMC works across Pakistan through a network of associates, so a client gets a local point of contact who knows that ground, backed by the full technical depth of the practice.
Working with development partners
A significant part of our work is delivered under programmes financed by development partners and multilateral lenders, where the procurement route, the reporting requirements and the safeguards framework are as much a part of the job as the engineering.
We are experienced in the disciplines those programmes call for: feasibility studies to lender appraisal standards, environmental and social impact assessment, resettlement and socioeconomic survey work, participatory planning with logical frameworks, benefit monitoring and evaluation, mid-term and post-project evaluation, and third-party validation.
