Solid Rock Consulting is an independent analytical advisory firm specialising in strategy, governance, risk and impact evaluation — serving public, private and development sector institutions across Africa.
SRC was established on the premise that effective advisory work requires an integrated analytical perspective — rigorous data analysis combined with strategic and institutional insight. Traditional consulting separates strategy, governance, analytics and operations. In practice, they are deeply interconnected.
We support government institutions, development partners and private sector organisations to strengthen decision-making, improve organisational performance and understand the outcomes of complex projects, initiatives and investments.
Every mandate is led by senior consultants and shaped by the same six-stage, evidence-based process.
Governance as a strategic asset — legal, institutional and operational lenses that let clients govern with confidence.
Strategies grounded in evidence, aligned with organisational realities, and translated into coherent operational plans.
Independent evaluations across economic, social and institutional dimensions using OECD-DAC, Contribution Analysis and Difference-in-Differences methods.
MEL systems that are proportionate, sustainable and genuinely used — not built and forgotten.
Advanced statistical modelling and quantitative analysis extracting meaningful insight from complex data.
CFA-level financial rigour applied to enterprise economics, performance and investment decisions.
Human capital systems, leadership capability and organisational culture that sustain performance.
