Projects delivered by ORIMAN support the objectives of expanding access to infrastructure services, reducing their cost and improving the quality of service. Our team of advisers brings direct experience of work within infrastructure providers, government ministries and regulatory authorities. We can deploy teams of operational, engineering, economic and financial experts in all the key infrastructure sectors including telecoms, energy, water supply and sanitation and transport (ports, road, rail and aviation). Much of the developing world is badly hindered by inadequate, deteriorating or even non-existent infrastructure. Weak infrastructure reduces the productivity of both individuals and the capital they employ; it therefore undermines the natural competitive advantages inherent within a country's assets. It creates barriers to development by restricting opportunities and raising costs thus impeding the sustainable development of the economy and stifling innovation. Making infrastructure development work for the poorest in society remains a critical challenge. ORIMAN's capability in infrastructure development works includes: Infrastructure and utility sector policy Strategies for attracting sustainable private sector investment Selecting the most appropriate private sector participation (PSP) methodology Utility and infrastructure sector restructuring and market reform Creation and strengthening of regulatory frameworks and institutions
