The essence of INMISO CONSULTING is providing Integrated Industry Solutions. Experience has shown that successful delivery of large mining, construction and energy projects, requires an acute understanding and timeous incorporation of all applicable regulatory requirements during the project development stage (requests for proposals and contracts), as well as the entire project execution stage. Furthermore, an in-depth understanding of the business environment within which these projects are executed, results in the ability to provide crucial insight into the challenges, risks and issues that may transpire.  We therefore provide an integrated industry solution by combining and aligning our business experience with our legal expertise. We believe this approach ensures industry focus, alignment between project activities and legal requirements and optimum risk management throughout the execution of the project, ultimately presenting the best possible solution to our clients.

We can provide a highly skilled, multi-disciplinary legal resource at a single point of entry to meet all your requirements in these complex and highly regulated industries.  We are also able to provide transaction advisory services as well as services relating to the management and coordination of specialist work streams. You can also trust our expertise and ability to assist with an array of service offerings such as proficient risk evaluation and identification, strategic and commercial advice, project coordination, facilitation and implementation, as our resources are skilled and experienced  in all aspects of the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act, compliance, permitting and licensing.

In addition to our primary industry focus, we also provide legal and other services in a number of complementary specialist fields such as labour law, health and safety law, social development, intellectual property and product improvements.

We are a compact team and take full advantage of our ability to be flexible and movable, enabling us to respond fast and effectively to service requirements. At INMISO CONSULTING, we strive to deliver more than just a service, but rather to provide our clients with an integrated industry experience!
