Services

End-to-end landing for technology, support and operations teams in Sri Lanka.

Team Relocation

Site visits, entity-route decisions, incorporation, visas and move-in — coordinated as one 90-day, project-managed landing with a single point of contact, not five vendors working from different assumptions. We map the dependencies between company formation, banking, office readiness and hiring up front, because most launch delays come from workstreams running in the wrong order rather than any single application taking too long. You get a working sequence for what can run in parallel versus what has to wait on a prior decision, plus a named lead accountable for the whole timeline — not just their own piece of it.

Company & Licensing

Private limited company, branch or representative office, with 100% foreign ownership available in most sectors. Registration itself is only the first workstream — sector licences, BOI status where it applies, banking, premises and staffing each have their own requirements and timelines, and treating "the company is registered" as "the business is cleared to operate" is the single most common cause of rework we see. We build a licence map before you commit to office space or start hiring, so approvals that need lead time are already moving instead of discovered midway through the launch.

BPO Staffing

Customer support, operations, content moderation and technical-support teams built locally, hired and managed end to end — recruitment, EPF registration, attendance, payroll and ongoing HR support. Before your first hire starts, we get payroll calculation, EPF coordination and personnel records working as one process, not three disconnected pieces discovered later need reconciling. For teams inheriting an existing headcount through an acquisition or transfer, we run the same review against the incoming team's employment records so nothing is missed at handover. Shift coverage, escalation paths and quality monitoring are set up from day one, not bolted on after the team is already live.

Office & Infrastructure

Grade-A offices, coworking, serviced space or a standalone campus — matched to your stage of entry rather than sold on rent alone. Before you sign, we verify who is actually responsible for handover condition, connectivity and power resilience, because in a new business park the developer, landlord, property manager and facility provider can be four different parties, and dealing only with a leasing agent leaves real gaps. Dedicated fibre, UPS and generator backup, and access control are assessed against your actual operating needs, not a standard checklist. We also flag the trade-off between starting in shared space and relocating within 12–18 months versus committing to a longer lease from day one, so the choice matches your growth plan rather than whatever is available fastest.

Visas & Work Permits

Entry, work authorisation and residence are three separate approvals, not one "visa" — treating them as interchangeable is where most avoidable delays happen. We plan for the whole team at once, not person-by-person: employment entry visas, renewable residence visas and investor visas, each mapped against the individual's actual role, employer entity and intended length of stay, so the documentation matches how your team will really operate rather than a generic template. Batch processing across a team also means fewer surprises discovered halfway through onboarding, when a mismatched detail is far more expensive to fix.

Payroll & Payments

Local LKR payroll, EPF compliance, FX-compliant cross-border payment channels and profit repatriation. Before money moves, we confirm that contracts, shipping or service documents, and bank records can all be traced to the same transaction — a mismatch between what a bank sees and what customs or a supplier invoice shows is the most common reason cross-border payments get held up or queried after the fact. The same discipline applies to payroll: calculation, EPF filing, records and payment approval run as one reviewed process, not separate spreadsheets.

Tech Development

Custom software development, systems operations, IT infrastructure build-out and security hardening for teams running technical operations out of Sri Lanka. This sits alongside, not instead of, the facilities and staffing work — the same team planning your office connectivity and hiring also scopes the technical environment, so infrastructure decisions and engineering headcount are planned together instead of by two vendors who never compare notes. For teams that already have an engineering function elsewhere, we can also run as a dedicated build-and-operate extension rather than a one-off project. Security hardening and access controls are scoped against the same compliance requirements our advisory team maps for your sector, so the two workstreams don't end up contradicting each other.

Compliance Advisory

Tax, employment, data protection and sector-specific compliance — including the company secretary role, a statutory requirement under Sri Lanka's Companies Act, not an optional administrative extra, and one that carries personal liability for directors if missed. For fintech-adjacent and payments-heavy businesses specifically, compliance sits at the intersection of financial services, data-intensive consumer products and cross-border payment flows, which draws materially higher regulatory attention than a typical services business — we map that risk before you land, not after a filing is missed.

Not sure which kind of provider you need?

Four kinds of provider operate in this market. Who each one suits, where each falls short, and how to tell whether they do the work themselves or subcontract it.
