A Management & Finance consulting boutique, focused on turning data into decisions.
Who we are
DRDS Consulting is a consultancy focused on turning financial and business data into relevant management information. We combine financial expertise, technical rigour, technology and data analysis to help organisations improve performance, strengthen control mechanisms and develop more efficient and sustainable management models.
We support Boards and finance teams in structuring the finance function, improving control and information quality, and preparing more robust decisions.
Our origins
Founded in 2023, DRDS was born from the realisation that many organisations produce accounting, financial and operational information but cannot always turn it into actionable knowledge. Our answer is to move beyond a purely backward-looking approach and use data as a tool for analysis, anticipation, control and decision support.

To help organisations improve their financial and operational performance by turning data and business information into relevant knowledge for better-informed, more efficient and sustainable management.
Vision
To be a leading consultancy in the Angolan market, recognised for technical excellence, innovation and the ability to turn information into value, progressively expanding into international markets.

Acting ethically, responsibly and transparently.
Placing specialist knowledge and quality at the heart of every project.
Producing analysis and recommendations backed by consistent information.
Combining finance, technology and data to create more efficient solutions.
Focusing every engagement on concrete business impact.
What sets us apart
Financial expertise integrated with data analysis, SQL, Power BI and technology solutions.
Using information to understand products, customers, regions, costs, investments and performance.
An integrated approach to risk, control, governance and process quality.
Connecting financial, accounting, operational and technology information to produce management recommendations.
