An energy company with Angolan operations
Contractor administration centralised in Lisbon
Contractor administration and procurement document filing moved to a coordination tier in Lisbon, keeping in Luanda what requires presence on the ground.

Case facts
- Delivery model
- Lusophone corridor
- Variant
- pt-PT
- Team
- 9 people, Lisbon
- Time to launch
- 8 weeks
The problem
Contractor and procurement documentation was managed locally by engineers whose time was worth more elsewhere, and expiry tracking on health and safety certifications failed often enough to generate audit findings.
What we built
A coordination team in Lisbon took on contractor administration, document filing and expiry tracking, under European data handling rules. Work requiring physical presence or relationships with Angolan regulators stayed in Luanda.
Compliance
The Lisbon tier sits inside the EEA. What flows to Angola rests on standard contractual clauses with a transfer impact assessment, because Angola holds no adequacy decision.
