Keel Strategic have worked very closely and successfully with our business development team in Afghanistan, assisting with operational planning, leading on government and local liaison and advising on risk and appropriate security measures. Their small team of consultants have become invaluable to operations and their insight highly sought and valued.

Following a competitive tender process, Keel Strategic was contracted by our Company to establish a 200 strong locally manned security force in a very short timeframe, and working to a new and untested set of government regulations and systems. Keel Strategic managed to achieve their objective faster than expected and at less cost, due to the extraordinary quality of its staff. Most notable was their diplomacy and tact during negotiations with government officials, their ability to motivate and inspire the new security staff, whilst anticipating the needs of our new company as we started operations in a relatively hostile and physically testing environment. They proved to be a first class choice at a very demanding time: no nonsense experienced professionals and at the right price.

Keel Strategic has been engaged in a long term, significant, extremely complicated and dangerous investigation on behalf of our global organization. They have been required to quickly master the intricacies and complexities of a worldwide logistics and transportation network, governed by rigid contractual and legal standards and have done an exemplary job. In addition, in order to compile the necessary information they have been required to spend significant amounts of time in a very dangerous war torn and terrorist country. The results to date have been extremely satisfactory. Their responsiveness, quality of work product, presentations skills and interpersonal skills are best in class. I look forward to our continued relationship and give the guys at Keel Strategic highest recommendation.

VP & General Counsel Maersk Inc

During the London 2012 Summer Olympic Games PUMA established an on-site venue as an ‘event base’ from which to conduct business, and provide hospitality for business VIP’s, sponsored athletes, entertainment celebrities, and implement brand promotional activities engaging the general public – it was in effect our ‘home away from home’. The mix of private and public programmes created a range of different issues and Keel Strategic provided security and risk management consultation services in our preparations leading up to the event.
