Finding Partners, Suppliers and Service Providers in Syria
Choosing a partner or supplier is one of a project's most important decisions and one of the hardest from abroad. We research suitable candidates, compile offers, references and available evidence, organize talks and comparisons, and coordinate contract review with qualified professionals, while the final choice stays with you.

What we offer
We start by defining exactly what you need: the type of partner, supplier or service provider, the specifications or services required, quantities and the criteria you will compare on. We then research candidates, contact them to request offers and collect the references, registration documents, samples or examples of past work they provide.
We arrange the offers in a standardized comparison table showing price, terms, delivery time and what was verified and what was not. We organize talks and meetings with the most suitable candidates and document what is said. When you reach contract stage, we coordinate a review of the contract by a qualified lawyer before signing.
Every report states the limits of what we verified. We do not guarantee the reliability or future performance of any partner or supplier beyond what was actually verified and documented, and the final decision to contract remains yours.
