Testimonials

What LUMEC clients have to say.



LUMEC has done an outstanding job developing a cost-benefit analysis report on a composting pilot model that we are implementing jointly with our project partners and two eThekwini Municipality Units. We found the LUMEC team to be attentive and professional, and the high-quality report has played a pivotal role in supporting the project team to lobby the City to consider the scale up and replication of the pilot in the future. We would highly recommend LUMEC for similar work!

LUMEC is an evidence driven research company with a professional approach to the subject matter.



I found the staff of Lumec to be friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and professional. They were prompt and responsive, and communicated regularly with me. The research that they conducted was relevant, and was presented in an efficient, accessible way which has meant that the document was very well received. Having used a number of consultants over the last 5 years, I would highly recommend the quality of work.
