WHO WE ARE

A COMPETITIVE EDGE THROUGH A CULTURE OF SUSTAINABILITY

In order to successfully operate and invest in Africa or Asia, an understanding and insight into the constantly evolving legislative requirements, the complex socio-political context and diversity of cultures, and the varied and sensitive natural environments is needed.

IBIS is a premier emerging market sustainability consultancy that helps companies unlock value by improving their environmental and social performance. We provide a unique combination of executive management and on-the-ground expertise supported by our extensive experience working with multinational companies and local clients across Africa and Asia.

IBIS

We took inspiration in naming our business after the North African mythological God of Wisdom, Justice and Knowledge – the Sacred IBIS, Thoth. Our logo is informed by the classic V-shaped flight formation of the IBIS bird. An example of efficiency and teamwork, it symbolises for us the symbiotic relationship between our clients, colleagues and the African continent, where we were founded.

LOCAL CONTENT

IBIS is committed to meaningful black empowerment and transformation in line with the South African Government’s Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE) Act of 2003 and the Constitution of South Africa.

We’re committed to promote B-BBEE in a broad based and holistic way through employment equity, corporate social investment, preferential procurement, treatment of suppliers, training and ownership.

IBIS South Africa is proudly a Level 2 B-BBEE supplier.

Achieving a Level 2 rating allows our South African clients to recognise 125% of our fees as procurement spend which assists them in maintaining their own B-BBEE levels.

OUR COMMITMENT TO HEALTH, SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT

At IBIS we have embedded safety in everything we do. We provide a safe and healthy working environment for our employees, business partners, and other stakeholders who may be affected by our activities. We aim to exceed related industry best practice and our clients’ expectations and are committed to:

  • Conducting our business with respect and care for people and the environment;
  • Ensuring we provide a safe working environment, safe equipment and safe systems of work for all our employees and business stakeholders;
  • The responsible and sustainable utilisation of natural resources;
  • Continually improving our safety, health and environmental performance;
  • Complying, as a minimum, with applicable legal and other agreed requirements; and
  • Promoting dialogue with stakeholders about safety, health and environmental performance.

IBIS has developed a COVID-19 Policy and established a COVID-19 Advisory Committee, represented by members from each of our offices, to ensure that our activities are undertaken according to safe working protocols to minimise risks to our staff, their families, our clients and the communities in which we work. In addition, where fieldwork is required, either by our team or contractors, we complete a detailed COVID-19 Risk Mitigation and Management Plan that is approved in advance by an IBIS Director.
