Range matters more than any single project.
EBO carries forward the delivery record and technical team of its predecessor firm, Cornerstone Technology Consultancy plc.

Seven sectors, seven sets of obligations
The same engineering discipline, applied to very different demands.
| Sector | What the obligations demand of a system |
|---|---|
| Federal government | Procurement rules, audit exposure, public accountability, bilingual publication, and records that survive scrutiny long after the commissioning officials have moved on. |
| Development and non-profit | Reporting against grant conditions to funders and beneficiaries at once, with donor-grade traceability of every expenditure. |
| Membership bodies | Structured member registries and directory systems serving a constituency rather than a customer base. |
| Financial services | Loan portfolio management and member records under the controls regulated lending demands. |
| Manufacturing and trade | Production control, traceability and multi-location inventory that survive daily transaction volume. |
| Retail and hospitality | Point of sale, room and table management, and stock control that pays for itself quickly. |
| Education and research | Learning management, repository and journal systems for organisations whose output is knowledge. |

Where the work sits
Ethiopia
The delivery base. Design, development, implementation and support are carried out by our own team in Addis Ababa — no offshore handoff, and the people who build a system are the people who support it.
Beyond Ethiopia
Engagements delivered for institutions in the United States, Canada and the UAE. Our United States presence is also what makes competitive international software and infrastructure procurement practical from Addis Ababa.
