INTRODUCTION

Interim Management Case Study Project Recovery: 1st Executive’s IXPA partner in Togo, spearheaded a project from August to December 2021, for a CFAO Technology & Energy data centre completion.

COMPANY SCENARIO

CFAO Technology & Energy faced a critical juncture as its Datacenter project in Lomé lagged significantly, risking noncompliance with the Togolese government’s stringent December 2, 2021 deadline. Recognizing the urgency, Actiss Africa were approached to orchestrate a turnaround.

BUSINESS Challenge

A myriad of obstacles plagued the project – internal team inertia, disorganized subcontractors, and impending delays in the supply chain. A robust strategic response was required to reignite momentum.

SOLUTION

Ambroise Baroan and Gilles Marque, from IXPA’s partner Actiss Africa, collaborated with the Interim Manager who revamped the Gantt chart and strategically engaged with internal and external teams. Through a pursuit of excellence, intensive on-site presence, and strategic procurement acceleration, they successfully overcame hurdles.

OUTCOMES

The Interim project was a resounding success. The Datacenter reached completion in November. While external factors impacted the timeline, the project under CFAO Technology & Energy’s jurisdiction was delivered. Ambroise Baroan and Gilles Marque’s performance surpassed client expectations and they breathed life into a project that had been dormant for 3 months.
