1. BACKGROUND

1.1 Company History

E 6 Project Consulting is a South African based firm established at the beginning of the year

2015 to fulfil its founder's desire to service the Project Management industry across Africa

from a consulting platform (without the constraints often imposed by corporate dynamics).

Thus, he readily avails himself to contribute to project initiatives on the continent, especially

in the field of capital and infrastructure projects that drive socio-economic development.

The founder's practical experience gained from working over many years in the space of

Large Infrastructure Projects (LIPs) in South Africa and in the Southern African Development

Community (SADC) region, which he often reflects in his articles published in various Project

Management magazines, shall constitute the foundational thrust of the company's offering.

The company is named E 6 in dedication to his six God-given children, who would share in

the heritage of this company; they are Emmanuel, Eunice, Eden, Elie, Ebenezer, and Enoch.

1.2 Business Scope

E 6 Project Consulting will endeavour to contribute to the steady advancement of the Project

Management and related/supporting disciplines, while assisting its clients in effectively and

successfully delivering capital and infrastructure projects. The company will also leverage on

Project Management skills and insights to support and facilitate other critical organizational

initiatives such as strategy implementation and organisational change management.

2. STRATEGY & VISION

2.1 Vision Statement

E 6 Project Consulting shall be an African consultancy that facilitates Project Management

thought-leadership and the effective application of best-practices to the delivery of large

infrastructure projects for socio-economic development – keeping the African Dream alive!

2.2 Mission Statement

E 6 Project Consulting will primarily assist both public and private entities in their efforts to

create, upgrade, support, and/or maintain a set of smartly-designed and efficiently-operated

infrastructure systems that promote business success and/or socio-economic development.

2.3 Company's Core Values

E 6 Project Consulting strives to maintain the values of PIE (π) – Professionalism, Integrity,

and Excellence – not only in its work environment (e.g., personnel, office environment), but

even more so in dealings with clients and with the broader Project Management fraternity.

2.4 Business Goals & Objectives

In addition to achieving sustainable commercial success and when establishing a meaningful

"presence" in many parts of the African continent, E 6 Project Consulting will actively seek:

www.e6pc.com

(a) To effectively add value to the business of its clients (i.e. the cornerstone of customer

loyalty at E6PC) by supporting and advising them in setting up delivery mechanisms

and/or delivering commercially, technically, and environmentally successful projects;

(b) To develop the highest level of Project Management skills and expertise, as well as in

“adjacent” disciplines, both for the company itself and for its clients, when applicable;

(c) To partner and collaborate with like-minded companies (and entities) to promote and

advance the practice of Project Management on the African continent and globally.

2.5 Current Growth Strategy

In line with the above (sections 2.1 to 2.4), E 6 Project Consulting will rather adopt an

organic growth strategy, and will thus gradually, positively leverage on each of its successful

assignments to expand the scope, footprint, and volume of its various business activities.

The company will also rely on strategically-selected business partnerships and associations to

gain complementary, new and/or higher levels of skills, insights, experience, and territory.

3. PRODUCTS & SERVICES

E 6 Project Consulting offers clients the “Systems Thinking Approach”, incorporating Systems

Engineering (SE) concepts and principles to project delivery, in order to tackle the increasing

operational readiness, stakeholder management – and Earned Valued (EVM-based) Controls.

E 6 Project Consulting promotes its proprietary Systems Engineering based Project Lifecycle

Methodology (SE-PLM) – It leads to lower cost and schedule overruns, reducing failure risks.

(c) Project Support Services based on ̋ Integratedʺ Earned-Valued Controls (EVM-Controls)

that integrates scope, schedule, cost, and risks to measure, predict project performance;

(d) Design and Implementation of Project/Programme/Portfolio Assurance frameworks;

E 6 Project Consulting will rely on its network connections and deep understanding of the

Project Management industry to advise and secure the procurement and/or purchase of any

suitable Project Management resources (e.g., PM software applications, books, videos, and

other proprietary Project Management tools, as needed to improve and/or support project

delivery capabilities in the client environment) – and in some cases shall develop the above.

3.3 Business Competitiveness

Why shall you (or other entities) prefer E 6 Project Consulting to any other service providers?

Well, this company will offer its prospective clients a number of business benefits as follows:

(a) The company's founder, his associates, and most other consultants will come with a

wealth of practical knowledge backed up by robust qualifications and/or experience;

(b) The company's founder and his associates have learned and tested effective, value-

adding ways of delivering infrastructure project, based on globally-acclaimed best-

practices such as Project Lifecycle Management Processes and Systems Engineering;

to complying with, among others, PMBoK (PMI), Prince2 Methodology and P3M3 (OGC), and

pertinent principles and practices of INCOSE (International Council on Systems Engineering).

4. MANAGEMENT & OWNERSHIP

4.1 Company Directors

Mr. Pascal Bohulu Mabelo, the founder of E 6 Project Consulting, will initially retain majority

shareholding and will thus serve in the capacity of Managing Director and Senior Consultant.

The remainder of the company’s share is to remain as a family heritage and shared among the

children (listed under section 1.1) as and when they reach the required professional competency.

4.2 Management Team

At the initial stage following the company establishment, Mr. Pascal Bohulu Mabelo will serve

as Managing Director vested with most executive powers. He shall commit and represent the

company until such a time as its volume or spread of business will warrant the appointment

of a Management/Executive Committee, which may include any of the company directors,

associates, and managers according to their skills, expertise, and professional background.

4.3 Consulting Teams

The Principal Consultant is Mr. Pascal Bohulu Mabelo, Golden Key International

— MSc (Systems Engineering), MBA (Project Finance), BSc (Civil), Pr Eng, PMP, P2R, MSP, Pr CPM, Pr PMSA

Mr. Pascal Bohulu Mabelo and other associates, due to their relevant credentials, skills and

experience in the Project Management field will in turn operate as Lead Senior Consultants;

they will call on their extensive professional network to secure the availability of additional

project consultants in line with the scope, location, and duration of proposed assignments.

Please find copies of CVs of Consultants for the proposed assignment under Appendix B below.

4.4 Office & Administrative Personnel

While the company aims at covering a broad footprint across many economic regions of the

continent, its operating model will entail maintaining a core administrative team at its local

office (Johannesburg, South Africa). This office will be augmented by a lean satellite-office at

each area of operations as and when such a need arises, except when an appointed strategic

partner (i.e. company) is in a position to provide the required administrative support.

It is also anticipated that the number and capacity of project or office personnel shall align to

the organic growth strategy of the company, starting up from a core of in-sourced resources.

4.5 Youth Empowerment Initiatives

Technical skills pertaining to large projects are not only scarce, but often demand conscious

and directed efforts in imparting the necessary knowledge and sharing practical experience.

Currently, inadequacies in project delivery expertise at local and regional levels have proved

costly to Africa, as a continent – E.g., it has cost two to three times more (and probably taken

as much longer) to build a power plant in Africa, in comparison to other developing regions.

E 6 Project Consulting is therefore committed to providing “learnership” and/or employment

opportunities to youth. Hence, our undertaking to transfer skills to previously disadvantaged

individuals in the context of South Africa, and to other underprivileged individuals in the rest

of Africa, should such a need and/or opportunity arise in the environment of the assignment

– This is in a bid to foster the skill-set needed for Large Infrastructure Projects (LIPs) in Africa.

E 6 Project Consulting offers ʺfreeʺ SE-PLM MasterClass attendance to a limited number of

youth delegates (i.e. younger than 35 years old) in attempt to train, equip the next generation.

4.6 BEE Procurement Status

E 6 Project Consulting is a 135% B-BBEE firm [Level 1], with black young-female directorship.

As per applicable regulations, a SWORN AFFIDAVIT – B-BBEE EXEMPTED MICRO ENTERPRISE

documentation will be kindly provided to our clients upon request.

E 6 Project Consulting is currently registered onto the South African National Treasury’s CSD

(i.e. Central Supplier Database) under the official Supplier Identification No MAAA0469813

5. COMPANY CLIENT BASE & PORTFOLIO

5.1 Company Commendations

I have worked with Pascal Bohulu Mabelo as both colleague and client on various projects since 2007.

We worked on a joint Hatch-Transnet Capital Projects team which compiled and subsequently

embedded the Transnet Project Lifecycle Process (PLP) – now a well-established best project practice

in Transnet. The team, including Transnet and Hatch personnel, were awarded the Hatch Global

Knowledge Management Award for this work.

Pascal is a mature, dependable, well-educated and experienced project, programme and portfolio

management professional. He is well-equipped to take on a direct capital project or programme

management role. In my opinion, his capabilities (through his company) would however best be

leveraged as a PMO consultant, coach, trainer and adviser to help organisations tailor, establish and

embed these capabilities in their own project and PMO teams.

Mr. Neville Searle

(Retired) Associate, Hatch Goba (Pty) Ltd

I have known Mr. Pascal Bohulu Mabelo for over 6 years now. He is very passionate about project

management, organizational strategy and leadership. He has a wealth of experience on many areas

including portfolio, programme and project management to name a few. He has led many successful

infrastructure projects. He is very holistic in his approach when analysing problems; he really applies

systems thinking.

Pascal has been very inspirational to many people; he has mentored many young project managers.

His guidance has been valuable to many people. Each time you have an encounter with him, your

mind is always stretched. I strongly believe that E 6 Project Consulting (E6PC) is an extension of his

personality. We need strong and inspirational leaders in the space of project management.

Mr. Lunga Msengana

PM at Eskom Communications, Author, and Lecturer at Cranefield College and Unisa SBL

Mr. Pascal Bohulu Mabelo has a deep understanding of the challenges and specific requirements

pertaining to infrastructure projects in Africa; he passionately discusses his analysis and findings in

his regular publications, commenting on the possible socio-economic implications of the current

inadequacies – and how project management could lend a helping hand. In sharing his insights with

the project management fraternity, he keeps the African Dream alive.
