About Us

Project Development Consultancy (PDC) is a research, development and data management company which provides services to larger international research organizations, academic institutions, small to medium sized companies, and governmental and public-sector institutions interested in research assistance across the Latin American (LATAM) Nations. 

The Guyanese based, female owned company was founded by the then 19-year-old Anije Lambert, who wanted to merge her passion for market research and her passion for providing employment opportunities for undergraduate students within her university. One decade later, the company has been responsible for market and social research projects across the Caribbean. In addition the company has trained and found research related – job opportunities for over 600 youth and university students throughout the Caribbean.

In addition to the goal of empowering youth, the company has successfully managed to provide insightful and impactful reports to agencies such as The World Bank, United Nations’ United Nations Population Fund, International Organisation for Migration, International Organisation for Labor, The Inter-American Development Bank, CARICOM (in partnership with GASSCO), UK’s Oxford Policy Management Group and Cherie Blair Foundation. The company has been strategically geared to support USAID project implementation, as the company has worked and supported projects within DAI (YRIE) Initiative and worked with USAID MELSA implementing firm BIXAL.  In addition, core team members are often sought after by firms such as the International Development Group, International Republic Institute and others for individual consulting support given their expertise in the region.

Aside from its work in social research, the company has worked extensively in the market research industry aligning itself under research agencies such as IPSOS; Hope Research USA, and other smaller scaled UK based agencies to coordinate and manage research projects in Guyana and the wider Caribbean. Some notable brands the company has done research for include Canadian Bank Note, Caribbean Airlines, Coca-Cola, Shell, Rubis, Grace Kennedy Remittances- Western Union, Grace Foods, and Supreme Ventures. 

Across the Caribbean, the company has managed teams and conducted multi country research in the following countries: Curacao, Trinidad & Tobago, Jamaica, St. Lucia, Guyana, Suriname, Dominica, Dominican Republic, Montserrat, Haiti, The Bahamas, Antigua & Barbuda, Grenada, and Barbados. Multi country projects required the formation of relationships with Government entities across the various countries and were in partnership with agencies such as CARICOM and IOM. Other multi-county projects fell under the category of Market Research with For Profit entities and academic individuals.
