Who We Are
Built for Africa's Infrastructure Renaissance
Top Notch Consulting was founded in Nairobi in 2019 with a singular purpose: to bridge the critical gap between Africa's enormous infrastructure financing pipeline and the international contractors capable of delivering it. We sit at the intersection of sovereign procurement, multilateral funding, and private-sector capability — translating verified opportunity into decisive action.
Our Mission
To accelerate delivery of Kenya's infrastructure pipeline by connecting world-class contractors to fully and partially funded mega-projects across energy, transport, water and ICT.
Our Vision
To become the definitive East African infrastructure intelligence platform — the first call for any international contractor entering the region's $47B active project pipeline.
Our Journey
2019
Founded in Nairobi
Registered in Kenya with a mandate to map, verify and publish Africa's fundable infrastructure pipeline.
2020
First Project Listings
Catalogued the first 12 shovel-ready Kenyan projects across energy, roads and water — each with confirmed financing.
2022
Regional Expansion
Extended coverage to 6 East African markets and grew our verified project register to 48 active mega-projects.
2025
Contractor Network
Over 200 international contractors engaged across 14 countries, with a combined active bid pipeline exceeding $3.2B.
01
Integrity
Every project we list is independently verified. We do not publish unconfirmed, speculative or duplicated pipeline entries.
02
Precision
Contractors receive only opportunities that match their declared capability, sector focus and contract value range.
03
Access
We remove information asymmetry — giving international contractors the same project intelligence as established local actors.
04
Impact
Every engagement we facilitate delivers infrastructure that powers communities, moves people and drives economic growth.
By The Numbers
A Track Record Built on Real Infrastructure Deals
Every metric we publish reflects verified project engagements — not pipeline estimates or letters of intent. Our data comes from direct relationships with procuring entities, multilateral funding institutions and international contractor bid teams.
From geothermal fields in the Rift Valley to port expansion on the Indian Ocean coast, Top Notch-facilitated engagements span the full breadth of Kenya's infrastructure ambitions.

What Our Numbers Actually Mean
The 48 projects in our register are not aspirational. Each has confirmed funding from sovereign wealth institutions, multilateral development banks, bilateral aid agencies, or Public-Private Partnership structures with executed concession agreements.
Our contractor matching does not stop at introduction. Top Notch supports the complete journey — from eligibility verification through bid preparation, local partner identification and submission.
01
Funding is confirmed before we list
We only publish projects with executed financing agreements or signed Letters of Credit from qualifying development finance institutions.
02
Every contractor match is sector-specific
Power generation contractors are not matched to roads projects. Every match is calibrated to technical capability, not just geographic interest.
03
Bid support is embedded in the process
Our team assists with pre-qualification packages, local content compliance, and documentation for each specific procurement submission.
