Independent Owner-side Governance Assured
This transition reflects a clear shift in how we serve owners, aligning our work entirely with independent governance rather than execution.
We no longer provide execution, delivery or advisory services.
We operate above delivery, acting on behalf of owners where accountability cannot be delegated.
This transition reflects where our work has been heading for some time and where owners increasingly need support.
Built on delivery experience. Grounded in discipline. Applied through governance.
TacminMadini’s governance capability is grounded in more than three decades of direct execution experience across mining, infrastructure, asset management and project recovery. That experience was built in complex, high-consequence environments including remote operations, distressed assets and large capital programs where delivery risk was real and outcomes mattered.
That delivery experience now informs how we govern.
It provides practical insight into where value is created, where it is quietly lost, and where owner accountability is most exposed as conditions evolve across the asset lifecycle.
What has changed
TacminMadini does not execute projects.
We do not manage delivery teams, perform EPC/EPCM roles, or assume operational responsibility. Instead, we apply independent owner-side governance, assurance and escalation informed by delivery experience, but not driven by delivery incentives.
Our role is to:
Execution remains with delivery teams. Accountability remains with owners. Governance sits where it belongs.
Why this matters
As projects and assets become more complex, accountability increasingly sits with owners long after execution is delegated. Independent owner-side governance is no longer a nice to have. It is a necessary capability to protect value, preserve control and govern outcomes responsibly.
That is the role TacminMadini now serves exclusively.
Where delivery experience informs governance today
Our historical execution work delivered through Tacmin Group across Africa remains relevant, but it is no longer what we do. It is the foundation from which we now govern.
Experience earned in delivery is applied through governance.
