We help organisations and institutions turn strategy, corporate social responsibility and enterprise development into measurable, lasting results across South Africa.
Stratovate Solutions (Pty) Ltd is a South African advisory firm specialising in strategy, corporate social responsibility, enterprise and supplier development, and research support. We are 100% black owned and 100% black woman owned, a B-BBEE Level 1 contributor, in good standing with SARS and verified on the Central Supplier Database.
We work where funding meets delivery. Many organisations commit to transformation and enterprise development, but results depend on whether programmes are properly designed, implemented and measured. That is our craft, and we report on it honestly.
To be a trusted South African partner that turns responsible business spending into real economic participation for people and enterprises that have been left on the margins.
To design and deliver practical strategy, corporate social responsibility and enterprise development programmes that are properly implemented, measured and reported, so that funders see results and beneficiaries build lasting capability.
Stratovate exists to close the gap between good intentions and real outcomes in South Africa’s economy. Corporates, banks and institutions commit significant resources to transformation, enterprise development and community upliftment, yet too much of that spending does not translate into lasting change on the ground.
Our purpose is to make sure it does. We design and deliver programmes that build genuine capability in emerging enterprises, farmers and communities, and we measure and report honestly, so that responsible spending can be traced to a real result. When beneficiaries can operate, comply and supply, participation in the economy widens and growth becomes sustainable.
A simple, disciplined way of working that keeps programmes deliverable and reportable.
We learn your goals, your scorecard priorities and the real context on the ground.
We design a programme that fits, with clear beneficiaries, activities and measures.
We run it with operational discipline, building systems, compliance and capability.
We track outcomes and report them honestly, in a form funders can trust.
From warehousing and stock control to logistics and supplier coordination, we put the operational discipline in place that makes programmes run and results hold.
