Experience
What we have delivered, where, and for whom - stated plainly and without inflation.
The record
Delivery to date
More than 30 systems delivered across 7 sectors, from a base in Ethiopia and extending beyond it. Enterprise software, infrastructure, security, advisory and training - delivered by one team that answers for the whole of it, rather than assembled from subcontractors after a contract is signed.
EBO carries forward the delivery record and the technical team of its predecessor firm, Cornerstone Technology Consultancy plc.
We do not publish client names or logos without written consent, and we do not publish counts we cannot stand behind. Where a reference is relevant to a decision you are making, ask us and we will arrange it properly.

Sectors
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 and not 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 we deliver
Ethiopia, and beyond
EBO is based in Ethiopia and delivers here first - because the systems we build are designed around the connectivity, the regulation and the working practices of this market. Delivery extends beyond Ethiopia where clients need it, and the same team supports it.
