Samanvaya Consulting Services are most sought by organizations when they are venturing into new areas, seeking to deepen or widen their horizons of operation. We at Samanvaya have come to specialize in shaping new, innovative forms of initiatives, concepts, institutions and networks where none existed before. Our emphasis on people centered approach means we are sought for developing people centered organizations, research and businesses. We develop methods and tools on the go from our considerable experience and expertise base, but also in participation with our associates and friends.

To understand better, "Change Management" is a primary consulting activity of ours. The essential component of our consulting service is managing change with knowledge as its medium and people centeredness as its focus.

Some of the recent consulting assignments have been:

challenge mapping for specific geographic location, re-cast identity of a social organization presentation to attract global clientele, assessment of business conception and capacity among community organizations, co-ordinate a global network of academics and activists through web based activities and local research, campaign and academic projects, develop knowledge management system for a business incubation organization, conduct change management exercise and re-design organization structure and functioning to suit changing times, conceive and manage research and communication for a nationwide campaign for a network…as can be seen, each is unique and we cover a wide spectrum of people centered initiatives.

In our area of work, interaction and engagement is of utmost importance. We get invitations to present our perspective on a wide range of subjects. Some of the recent ones include evolution of corporate social responsibility, the traditional community structure and functioning in India, on co-creating new ventures between community enterprises and corporate houses, on third world thinkers and their academic work in non-eurocentric studies…we get to share the insights and understanding with a wide spectrum of people including students, academics, researchers, activists, business men and development workers.

Writing about the work we do is an essential part of our service, though at times it gets mistaken for the service itself. Our writings are strewn over the internet and have been often cited and used. Our website is a source for a wide variety of information including disaster management reliable information source, resource site for agriculture, education, a regional centre for technology democracy, a centre for corporate social responsibility studies, a research and resource centre for Indian system of management, etc.

Consulting services are offered as either retainers or against specific deliverables.
