Technical work includes advice on restructuring and reengineering, conduct of functional analyses and reviews and introduction of performance management systems.

 

The process of restructuring, rationalization and, eventual privatisation of the Greek flag Carrier Olympic Airlines was organised and managed by 4Assist key associates. Among the tasks undertaken was the fiscal impact analysis of absorbing a certain portion of existing Olympic Airlines personnel to the wider public service, as well as forecasting the expected revenue to be gained by the operation of a financially viable carrier.

 

In addition, our associates have implemented projects in this field in Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Armenia.

4Assist is involved in a broad range of themes in the field of economic development.
