Strategic Alliances
Local knowledge. International capability.
Successful infrastructure development requires technical expertise and access to capital. But more than that it requires an understanding of the country in which a project will be developed: its institutions, regulatory environment, business practices, communities and decision-making processes.
C3 builds alliances on two fronts. In-country alliances bring established local organizations into project development as active participants. International alliances bring engineering, construction and delivery capability at the scale major infrastructure requires.
In-Country Alliances
Established organizations that provide local knowledge, institutional understanding and in-country presence, and that remain engaged as projects develop.
International Alliances
Organizations able to contribute engineering, construction, equipment and delivery capability to projects of significant scale.
Selecting the Right Partner
C3 evaluates prospective strategic alliance partners based on their professional capabilities, local experience, reputation, institutional relationships and ability to contribute meaningfully to project development. The objective is to establish a working relationship with an organization whose capabilities and local knowledge complement C3’s international project-development resources.
Working Together
The strategic alliance remains engaged as projects develop. Depending upon the opportunity, its role may include identifying and evaluating projects, facilitating government and institutional relationships, providing local technical and regulatory knowledge, coordinating with local professionals and contractors, and supporting implementation.
C3 combines these capabilities with international technical expertise, technology, project development and financing resources to build a team appropriate to each opportunity.
