Standing Between The Awarding Authority And The Contractors Who Deliver.
Operating Within Recognized International Frameworks
OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Mineral Supply Chains | EU Regulation on Conflict Minerals | National Mandate Frameworks of Our Operating Jurisdictions
- Our Mandate
Working Under A Government Mandate To Deliver Where It Matters.
We hold the mandate from the awarding authority and answer to it directly. Every contractor we place is selected, contracted and monitored against that mandate, from the first site assessment to final handover.
Site Assessment
Evaluating where a project genuinely stands before commitments are made.
Contractor Oversight
Holding contractors to the agreed scope, schedule and reporting.
- We work only with owners ready to build, not to speculate
- Full progress reporting to the awarding authority
- Why Clients Choose Us
A Mandate Holder, Not A Broker Chasing Introductions.
We do not shop a project around for a fee. We hold the mandate directly and answer for the outcome ourselves.
Direct Mandate Holder
We answer to the awarding authority ourselves, not through a chain of intermediaries.
Independent Oversight
We are not owned by, or affiliated with, the contractors we place.
- Our Approach
Structure, Not Speculation In Everything We Do.
We hold mandates for owners who are ready to build, and we structure every stage so the awarding authority never loses visibility.
- We work only with ready-to-build project owners
- We report directly and continuously to the awarding authority
01.
No Project Moves Without A Verified Mandate
Every engagement begins with confirmation of the awarding authority's scope.
02.
Contractors Are Vetted Before, Not After, Contracting
Track record and capability are confirmed prior to placement.
03.
Reporting Runs Continuously, Not Only At Milestones
The awarding authority has visibility throughout, not just at handover.

- Frequently Asked Questions
Answers To Common Questions Working With SGM.
A few of the questions we hear most often from awarding authorities and project owners.
SGM holds government-awarded mandates for resource projects and represents the awarding authority towards the contractors carrying out the work. We do not conduct exploration or extraction ourselves.
No. We coordinate specialist teams and oversee the assessment and execution on behalf of the client, rather than performing the technical work in-house.
Every contractor is vetted for capability and track record before being placed on a mandate, and is held to the agreed scope and schedule throughout the project.
