Clearly scoped on-the-ground coordination of approved project activities, milestones, professionals and reporting.
What It Is
Project Management goes beyond monitoring — BOWestAfrica coordinates the local execution of your project directly, managing contractors, timelines and logistics so you don't have to run it from a distance yourself.
Distance creates a visibility gap
Distance should not mean sending money, trusting promises or making important decisions without knowing what is actually happening. BOWestAfrica helps diaspora members independently verify information, monitor projects and, where specifically agreed, coordinate local execution in West Africa.
Your money remains your decision. Your project remains your project. Our role is to help you see clearly, act with better information and stay connected to what is happening on the ground.

Project Management is always reviewed before payment. The final service fee is confirmed per project based on the written scope, complexity and duration.
Pricing & Payment
Members submit before payment. Non-members can purchase fixed-price options directly; variable scopes are reviewed first.
Process
Tell us about the project, objectives, location, current parties and the coordination you need.
Every Project Management request is reviewed individually. BOWestAfrica defines the written scope, responsibilities, approval limits and service fee before payment.
After the scope and price are confirmed, the applicable member discount and taxes are reflected in the payment request where relevant.
After payment and BOWestAfrica activation, BOWestAfrica coordinates only the activities and responsibilities specifically agreed in writing.
Progress, evidence, decisions and agreed milestones are documented and reported directly to you.
You review the final information and any agreed outstanding items are closed out before the engagement is completed.
FAQ
Supervision monitors and reports on a project run by others. Project Management means our team actively coordinates the agreed execution.
Construction, business setup, agriculture and similar on-the-ground ventures — reach out with your specifics.
Pricing is scoped per project based on complexity and duration. The management fee is separate from contractor, supplier, materials and other project costs unless a written agreement expressly says otherwise.
Yes. A more hands-off arrangement can be defined under a separate written project agreement, including agreed approval limits and responsibilities. Any client-fund administration or third-party payment service will only be offered where the required legal, accounting and payment controls are in place and may carry an additional administration fee.
When supervision alone is not enough, selected projects can receive deeper coordination under a written agreement. You remain the project owner; BOWestAfrica coordinates only the responsibilities, approvals and limits expressly agreed for that engagement.
Your money remains your decision. Your project remains your project. Our role is to help you see clearly, act with better information and stay connected to what is happening on the ground. People living abroad often depend on calls, photos, relatives, contractors, suppliers or other third parties to understand what is happening locally. Information may be incomplete, delayed or different from what is happening on the ground. BOWestAfrica exists to close that visibility gap with independent checks, documentation and direct reporting.
Active members submit first. BOWestAfrica reviews the request, applies the member discount, calculates applicable taxes and confirms the price before issuing a payment request. For members, payment completion makes the confirmed request ready for BOWestAfrica activation. Active service or project work starts only after that activation; a submitted or paid-but-not-activated request is not presented as active field work.
For a fixed-price public service, a non-member may be asked to pay at checkout before BOWestAfrica completes its operational review. The payment status is Payment Received — Pending BOWestAfrica Review until the request is accepted. If BOWestAfrica determines that it cannot provide a paid non-member request, the service payment is refunded in full. Once an accepted service has started, the normal cancellation and refund terms apply.
Member service discount: Silver 5%, Gold 10%, Diamond 15% on eligible BOWestAfrica professional service fees only. Membership fees and third-party or project expenses are not discounted.
Applicable taxes are calculated through the checkout based on the transaction and billing information. BOWestAfrica does not automatically apply Québec taxes to every customer worldwide.
For members, payment completion makes the confirmed request ready for BOWestAfrica activation. Active service or project work starts only after that activation; a submitted or paid-but-not-activated request is not presented as active field work.
BOWestAfrica does not automatically hold or control the client’s full project budget. Whenever practical, clients pay verified suppliers or contractors directly. Any expense BOWestAfrica is specifically asked to handle must be authorized, documented and governed by the written agreement and appropriate legal, accounting and payment controls.
Contractors, suppliers, materials, government charges, specialist fees, travel and other third-party or project expenses are separate unless a written scope expressly includes them.
Connected Service Experience
Members submit from their dashboard and BOWestAfrica reviews the request before confirming the discounted service price and issuing payment. Visitors can still request services without membership; fixed-price public options may proceed to payment before BOWestAfrica completes its operational review.
