Infrastructure
Castlerock continues to provide consultancy support for core infrastructure services and projects including in the water, transportation, solid waste sectors at both the central and local government level. In contrast to many social sectors, there is greater potential for government to leverage private sector resources (to finance, construct and/or operate) new infrastructure projects through an effective public-private partnership (PPP) framework. Our infrastructure offerings aim to help government achieve this (in a workable manner). We also work with the private sector, drawing on the same pool of expertise to help prepare projects and support transactions. Our regional presence and local knowledge can help project sponsors reach timely completion and achieve the desired balance of risks and rewards.
