Before you procure, you need the right strategy. Ivy Africa provides technical and business advisory — from AI governance frameworks to outsourced business management for growing SMMEs — grounded in real delivery experience, not theory.
Technical strategy for organisations deploying technology, and business advisory for SMMEs building capacity to grow.
ISO/IEC 42001 and King IV-aligned AI governance frameworks for organisations adopting AI at scale — built from real advisory engagements including work with Rand Refinery.
Composable infrastructure and cloud strategy advisory, including our work exploring Liqid composable infrastructure distribution for African markets.
Hands-on coaching to fix the operational drag that quietly caps SMME growth — workflow, time, and team output.
Structured mentorship for founders navigating the stage where most South African SMMEs stall — delivered by the same team facilitating SMME programmes through GIBS's Enterprise Development Academy Faculty.
Ad-hoc, fractional business management support for founders who need senior capability without a full-time hire.
Strategic guidance on tender readiness, compliance documentation, and B-BBEE positioning for growing suppliers.
South Africa has one of the highest SMME failure rates globally — and the research consistently points to management capacity, not market conditions, as the deciding factor.
