Developmentnomics
Education in Cape Town

“Developmentnomics” may appear to some as development economics - the branch of economics wholly devoted to the study of economic development. This is not entirely incorrect. Of course the word immediately suggests that it was arrived at by the joining together of the words “development” and “nomics”. To us at Developmentnomics (Pty) Ltd though, it is much more than that.

Any wonder why most German companies are family owned or display a family-like culture today? Why can’t we also take advantage of our township and homeland history to build a small business development model for the world? ' We understand our clients’ need for superior knowledge, timely delivery and high-quality standards, in all their engagements with us. Based on this understanding, our services are designed to be perceptive, appropriately nuanced, embedded with deep intellectual insight, holistic and targeted to meet relevant needs in a timely manner. Our services adopt these twin elements, and are thereby resourced by professional performers, as well as performers who are professionals. In offering advice, the quality of the thought process and the knowledge base matters. At DEVNOMICS we are mindful of this, and have thus ensured the presence of these elements in the configuration of our advisory services. We not only help you formulate winning policies, strategies and tactics, but also help you turn your ideas into sharper and more workable concepts, guaranteed to secure desired results. Our strength lies in our ability to combine diverse expertise, research and data analytics-based insight. We use these skills to arrive at wise advice that guarantees better-assured and sustainable results. The scope of the advisory services we provide is broad and customisable. The absence of a scientific, result-oriented project management discipline is often at the root of all implementation failures. At DEVNOMICS we provide all-inclusive project management solutions, from conception through implementation, to project closure. Our solutions are based on tried and tested methodologies and techniques aligned to the standards, ethics and knowledge base of the Project Management Institute. An outstanding, globally-certified and experienced practice leader guides this service theatre. Having managed many vast, high-profile and complex projects that span several countries across the globe, he now guides our project management practices from the depth of his experience. PROCOUNTANT is DEVNOMICS’ proprietary software, developed with the project management practitioner and the sponsoring organisation in mind. PROCOUNTANT leads you through a step-by-step process of costing project activities, from the informed perspective of the systematic project manager and cost consciousness of the accountant. It’s a deliverables-based project costing software. While project activities are important, sponsoring organisations should only pay for them if they’re aimed at securing the stated objectives of the project owner, and lead to the achievement of identifiable, quantifiable, tangible and/or intangible product or service.
