Mandovi Solutions helps owners, developers and programme teams embed digital thinking into buildings, venues, precincts and cities — before the concrete is poured.
Mandovi Solutions is a specialist consultancy providing digital transformation and technology advisory for major infrastructure programmes — buildings, venues, precincts, and cities.
We work at the point where physical infrastructure and digital strategy converge, helping programme teams ensure digital is embedded from design inception rather than retrofitted later. Digital that is added after the fact costs more, delivers less, and creates assets that are obsolete before they open.
Led by Abhi Shekar, Mandovi draws on nearly 20 years of senior consulting experience in the UK, Australia, and across the Middle East — spanning individual buildings, master-planned precincts, and city-scale cognitive infrastructure programmes.
We also bring AI-augmented approaches into how we work: from intelligent knowledge management across large programme libraries, to automated analysis pipelines that accelerate assurance and reporting — and we advise clients on how to do the same.
From the earliest strategy work through to design assurance and procurement, we provide the digital expertise that major infrastructure programmes need — at the moment it has the most impact.
