About Platinum26 Consultancy
Platinum26 Consultancy is a boutique public health and healthcare management consulting firm based in Johannesburg and working across Sub-Saharan Africa. We support governments, donors, NGOs, development partners, and private-sector stakeholders to address complex health and development challenges with greater strategic clarity, stronger systems, and more practical delivery support.
A boutique consultancy built for complexity, collaboration, and impact
Platinum26 was established to help bridge the gap between strategy and implementation in health and development work. Across the continent, institutions are often required to solve increasingly complex problems while coordinating across multiple stakeholders, competing priorities, and constrained resources. In this environment, technical quality matters, but so do practicality, trust, alignment, and execution. We are at the confluence of government, funders, private sector and NGOs.
That is where Platinum26 adds value.
We work at the intersection of public health, healthcare management, organisational strategy, and stakeholder engagement. Our role is not simply to produce documents or recommendations, but to help clients think clearly, plan well, coordinate effectively, and move forward with greater confidence.
Our perspective
We believe that strong health and development outcomes are built through a combination of sound strategy, context-sensitive design, practical systems, and genuine collaboration. We also believe that institutions achieve more when technical thinking is paired with disciplined management and when policy and strategy are translated into forms that can actually be implemented.
Our work is guided by a commitment to quality, relevance, professionalism, and partnership. We aim to deliver consulting support that is rigorous, constructive, responsive, and useful.
