The Origin

Correcting the conflict of interest in project management.

In 2013, multinational corporations operating in Bangladesh faced a structural dilemma: every “project manager” was either employed by a contractor with delivery incentives or an architect with design fees at stake. Neither could offer genuine fiduciary independence.

Khurshid Almeher founded Kaymonto & Partners to establish Bangladesh's first pure-play PMC firm — structured with zero financial interest in which contractor builds or which supplier provides materials.

Over 13 years, Kaymonto has delivered 75+ projects and 1.3M+ square feet across Bangladesh for clients including HSBC, Unilever, IFC World Bank Group, Chevron, and InterContinental Dhaka.

Governance Model

Four stages. One fiduciary obligation.

01
Define

We lock project scope, programme milestones, and fixed budget before any contractor is engaged. Ambiguity is eliminated before ground is broken.

02
Plan

Project Execution Plan (PEP), risk register, contractor procurement matrix, and site controls agreed as the binding governing charter.

03
Supervise

Resident engineers on site daily. Weekly progress and EHS reports. Variation claims scrutinized and certified against contract terms, not invoices.

04
Close

Defect rectification, bill reconciliation, as-built drawings, O&M manuals, and handover documentation verified for the client.
